(Rockwell Automation: Milwaukee) -- Rockwell Automation, dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, introduces FactoryTalk Analytics VisionAI. This cutting-edge inspection solution leverages artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to revolutionize quality control in manufacturing.

FactoryTalk Analytics VisionAI is designed to help manufacturers improve product quality, maximize yield, and gain critical insights from real-time production data. This no-code solution enables quality personnel and plant operators to easily train AI models and deploy them across production lines without needing specialized machine-vision expertise.

“FactoryTalk Analytics VisionAI empowers manufacturers to detect even the most subtle anomalies in product quality, enabling them to take corrective action quickly,” says Arvind Rao, vice president of industry solutions at Rockwell Automation. “It offers manufacturers a robust solution to not only detect anomalies with unparalleled accuracy and time to value but also to optimize decision-making through AI-driven insights, ultimately improving operational efficiency.”

Key features of FactoryTalk Analytics VisionAI include:

Advanced anomaly detection: Finds and classifies previously undetectable defects, delivering actionable insights.

Remote visibility, configuration, and management: Manufacturers gain remote, centralized configuration and management of all inspection systems and visibility into their quality data from any location to understand performance trends across production lines.

Out-of-the-box analytics: This is built-in quality data analysis via prebuilt dashboards, automated reporting, and quality event notifications that drive root cause analysis and continuous operational improvement.

Seamless automation integration: Premier integration with Rockwell control systems for closed-loop quality control.

Scalable hardware: VisionAI supports real-time inspections at production speeds using off-the-shelf components, and integrates with standard Rockwell Automation hardware like ASEMIPC and Logix PLCs.

This technology is supported by partnership efforts between Elementary, a Rockwell investment and vision AI company, and Rockwell. FactoryTalk Analytics VisionAI is built on secure, SOC 2-compliant cloud technology, ensuring enterprise-level manageability and cybersecurity. It integrates effortlessly with Rockwell’s FactoryTalk Hub and other automation systems, offering manufacturers a streamlined, scalable solution that enhances quality and productivity.

FactoryTalk Analytics VisionAI was part of the new groundbreaking software lineup at Automation Fair 2024 in Anaheim, California, from Nov. 18–21, 2024, at the Anaheim Convention Center. If you were unable to check out FactoryTalk VisionAI at the event, click here to learn more.
