Intel and John Deere recently collaborated to pilot an AI solution utilizing computer vision to automatically spot and correct defects in its automated welding process. Together they developed an ...

This is a close-up view of porosity in a TIG weld. We will examine some of the causes for weld porosity and ways to prevent it. Q.When I TIG-weld a patch panel into an old car and then grind the weld ...

In contrast to manual inspection by trained employees, the automatic visual inspection systems always work objectively based on individual criteria and are not influenced by the condition of the ...

In the manufacture of heat exchanger components for aircraft, it was found that using the pulsed TIG method to weld the inlet and return manifolds was giving excessive porosity. Consequently an ...

This shows a plug tack-welded into place, after using a step drill to remove a porous area in the weld. Last time we looked at some of the causes of weld porosity, and some ways to prevent it. This ...

While many early applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in manufacturing focused on data analytics and identifying product and component defects with machine vision, use of the technology is ...

John Deere, the heavy equipment maker that's been around since the 1830's, is working with Intel on a new way to bring AI into its manufacturing process. The ongoing pilot project is the latest way ...
