This global leader in composite decking faced the complex challenge of inspecting long, continuous boards with varied grain patterns, textures, and colors across 24 active SKUs—all running on 8 high-volume production lines simultaneously.
Traditional manual inspection couldn't keep pace with production speed or consistently detect subtle defects like bubbles, speckling, missing capstock, and vacuum bumps across such product variety. With yield stuck at 86% and frequent retraining bottlenecks slowing operations, they needed an automated solution that could adapt to every SKU without missing critical defects.
Elementary's AI-powered inspection system delivered breakthrough results.
Our anomaly detection technology eliminated the need for SKU-specific retraining, instantly adapting to new product variants while maintaining detection accuracy. The system achieved 360° inspection coverage with real-time PLC integration for immediate defect rejection and comprehensive traceability linking every board to production data.
