The Industry Problem

Manual QC is Breaking Automotive Production Lines

India's automotive sector loses thousands of crores annually to defect escapes, recalls, and rework caused by inconsistent manual inspection that no spreadsheet or checklist can reliably fix.

Human inspectors miss micro-defects

Surface cracks, scratches, and dimensional deviations below 200 microns are invisible to the naked eye especially at line speeds above 600 ppm.

38%

of defects escape final inspection

Recall cost is 100× the part value

A single defective engine component reaching the field triggers recalls costing 100× more than the part plus permanent brand damage.

₹42L+

average cost per recall incident in India

No traceability to ERP

Paper-based or siloed QC systems mean defect data never reaches SAP or Oracle ERP making root cause analysis impossible and audits painful.

74%

of QC records never reach ERP systems

Inspector fatigue degrades consistency

Shift changeovers, fatigue, and lighting variation cause inspection accuracy to drop up to 40% after 4 hours with no audit trail.

Scanflow Capabilities

AI-Powered Quality Inspection Built for Automotive

From surface defect detection to ERP-synced traceability Scanflow replaces guesswork with precision AI at every quality gate, on every line, in every shift.

AI Visual Inspection

360° Surface Defect Detection

Detect scratches, cracks, rust, dents, and dimensional deviations on gears, pawls, camshafts, stampings, and castings down to 50 microns at full production speed.

Computer Vision QC

Assembly Verification & Poka-Yoke

Verify correct component placement, torque sequence, and part presence in real time. Trigger Andon alerts before defective assemblies leave the station.

Mobile QC App India

Mobile Handheld Inspection

Operators on the shop floor use industrial Android/iOS devices with the Scanflow SDK for instant barcode scan, OCR label verification, and image-based QC even offline.

ERP Quality Automation

SAP / Oracle ERP Integration

Every inspection result automatically updates your ERP production orders, quality notifications, material movements, and audit trails with zero manual entry via REST APIs.

Quality Analytics Dashboard

Real-Time QC Dashboard

Live KPI dashboards show defect rates by shift, line, part number, and supplier. Track First Pass Yield, DPPM, and warranty trends from a single web interface.

Machine Vision Inspection

Industrial Camera + GPU Inference

GigE/10GigE cameras connected to NVIDIA RTX 4090/5090-powered inference servers deliver sub-50ms AI analysis per frame inline, at production speed.

How It Works

Three Deployment Architectures.
One Unified Platform.

Scanflow adapts to your shopfloor infrastructure whether you need mobile-first handheld QC, fixed inline camera inspection, or a full ERP connected AI workflow automation suite.

  1. 01

    Capture on Industrial Handheld Device

    Operators use industrial Android or iOS devices with autofocus cameras and the Scanflow SDK to scan barcodes, read labels, and capture product images directly from the production line — with offline support for unstable network environments.

    • Scanflow SDK
    • Android / iOS
    • Barcode / OCR
    • Offline Sync
  2. 02

    Local Preprocessing & Validation

    The mobile app performs on-device image preprocessing, OCR extraction, barcode decoding, and business-rule validation for fast response times, then stores results in encrypted local storage before secure transmission.

    • On-Device AI
    • Encrypted Storage
    • HTTPS / TLS 1.3+
  3. 03

    AI Inference on Middleware Server

    Captured data and images are transmitted to the middleware inference server powered by NVIDIA RTX GPU hardware. The server executes real-time AI analysis, defect classification, and structured data extraction.

    • NVIDIA RTX 4090/5090
    • Intel Xeon / AMD EPYC
    • Real-Time Inference
  4. 04

    Automatic ERP Sync

    Inspection results are communicated to SAP, Oracle ERP, or Microsoft Dynamics via REST APIs within the protected enterprise intranet — triggering automatic transaction processing, traceability updates, and audit logging.

    • SAP Integration
    • Oracle ERP
    • MS Dynamics
    • VPN / Intranet
  5. 05

    Live Dashboards & Acknowledgements

    Operational status, KPI dashboards, analytics, and quality reports are transmitted back to mobile devices and enterprise dashboards — creating a fully connected, real-time quality ecosystem.

    • KPI Dashboards
    • Audit Trail
    • Real-Time Alerts

What We Detect

Every Defect Type Automotive Manufacturers Face in India

Scanflow's AI models are trained on Indian automotive components and local manufacturing conditions not generic Western datasets.

Surface Defect Detection

AI computer vision detects cracks, scratches, corrosion, pitting, dents, and surface anomalies on cast components, stampings, gears, camshafts, and engine parts down to 50 microns at full production line speed.

Typical ROI payback period at Tier-1 automotive suppliers

After deploying Scanflow on our crankshaft inspection line, we eliminated escape defects entirely in the first quarter. The SAP integration meant our quality engineers stopped doing data entry and started doing actual root cause analysis.
