The AI-powered Stent Inspection Machine (CGT-SD-1000) leverages advanced machine vision to deliver a highly efficient and precise solution for medical stent inspection. With ultra-high-resolution imaging and sophisticated optical measurement techniques, it ensures strict adherence to inspection standards, minimizes errors, reduces quality control costs, and accelerates inspection processes.
Submicron-Level Stent Rotational Positioning: The system leverages proprietary technology to achieve precise submicron-level rotational positioning.
Ultra-High-Precision Dimension Measurement (Optional): Non-contact measurement of critical stent dimensions using 3D visualization and coaxial displacement sensors, with ±2μm accuracy.
Advanced Optical Imaging: Specialized lighting and ultra-HD cameras detect surface defects as small as 5μm.
Defect Detection: AI-integrated hybrid screening ensures a miss rate below 0.1% (based on downstream process feedback).
Efficient Inspection Process: For a 40-millimeter stent, the dimension measurement is completed in approximately 2 seconds. The outer defect detection process takes around 25 seconds, while the optional inner defect detection also requires approximately 25 seconds.
Upper Computer Communication: The upper computer communication capability ensures seamless integration with systems, enabling real-time monitoring and control via a centralized interface. This enhances production efficiency and transparency. It supports data storage and analysis, facilitating long-term optimization and intelligent management of machines and equipment.
How does AI-based stent inspection enhance defect detection compared to traditional methods? Our AI-driven inspection system leverages advanced deep learning techniques and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to detect defects such as cracks, weld inconsistencies, surface irregularities, strut deformations, and, in future updates, coating defects. This adaptive approach significantly improves detection accuracy over conventional vision systems by minimizing both false positives and missed defects.
What range of stents can the AI system inspect? The system is engineered to inspect a wide variety of stents—including bare-metal stents, cardiovascular stents, and peripheral stents—across different sizes, materials, and design configurations.
Is the AI model customizable for our specific stent designs? Yes, the system supports custom AI model training using your proprietary stent samples. This tailored approach ensures optimal performance by adapting to your unique manufacturing variations and quality standards.
