EZ Automation Systems unveiled a new inline configuration of its AI-driven surface inspection platform at the ISA Automation Summit & Expo 2025, enhancing integration into production lines.

Set to redefine manufacturing quality control, EZ Automation Systems introduced an updated model of their AI-powered PIQuE surface inspection system. Unlike its predecessor, this new version seamlessly integrates into production lines without requiring robotic manipulation. Featuring a 3D vision system utilizing laser triangulation, this innovation enables rapid and accurate quality checks, aligning with the industry's shift towards high-speed, adaptive manufacturing processes.

Efficiency Gains and Competitive Advantage

Efficiency Gains and Competitive Advantage

Integrating AI-driven inspection systems like PIQuE into manufacturing workflows enhances more than just accuracy. EZ Automation reports that its new EZ Eye framework can reduce the man-hours required for inspection by up to 78%. These efficiency gains provide manufacturers with significant time savings and the opportunity to allocate resources more effectively.

Why it matters

Such advantages accompany a broader industry trend of using deep learning for quality inspection, offering a notable competitive edge. As per Ahmed Tawfik, EZ Automation's CEO, integrating advanced turnkey solutions addresses real-world manufacturing challenges by streamlining and accelerating inspection processes.

Why It Matters

By the numbers

• Reduction in man-hours required for inspection by EZ Eye: 33-78 %, annually — EZ Automation Systems

• Accuracy rate of PIQuE system: 96 %, ongoing — EZ Automation Systems

What's next

The upcoming ISA Automation Summit demonstration will provide key insights into the operational efficiency improvements and potential return on investment for manufacturers adopting inline AI inspection systems. Manufacturers will look to evaluate the ease of integrating such systems into existing workflows and the potential for scaling these solutions.

> "PIQuE represents our commitment to delivering advanced turnkey quality control solutions tailored to address real-world manufacturing challenges." – Ahmed Tawfik, CEO at EZ Automation.

As industries increasingly focus on operational speed and cost efficiency amid rising demands and competitive pressures, AI-driven systems like PIQuE deliver critical enhancements in quality assurance. They enable more streamlined, adaptable manufacturing environments that can rapidly respond to market requirements.
