Computer Vision in Medical Devices
Ensure Manufacturing Quality with AI in Medical Device Manufacturing
Undetected device defects cost medical device manufacturers billions of dollars each year. Akridata brings the power of AI in medical device manufacturing to detect defects early, reduce costly recalls, and ensure only high-quality products reach patients.
In 2023, there were 975 medical device recalls in the United States, impacting 283 million units and causing severe financial and reputational loss.
Traditional manual inspections fall short of the consistency required for medical-grade quality control. By integrating AI in medical device manufacturing, companies can automate visual inspection, reduce human error, and meet stringent compliance standards with greater efficiency.
SOLUTION
Reliable AI-Powered Device Defect Detection for Medical Manufacturing
Goal
Improve the precision and reliability of AI in medical device manufacturing to prevent defect escapes and ensure quality production.
Problem
Manual inspections are inconsistent and often unreliable. Even classical rule-based vision systems struggle with process variability. This makes the need for robust AI-driven medical device inspections more critical than ever.
Solution
Akridata’s Vision Command uses advanced deep learning to build and deploy reliable AI inspection models tailored for medical manufacturing. These models integrate seamlessly with existing hardware and ensure early, accurate defect detection.

HOW IT WORKS
AI-Based Integrated Device Inspection System for Medical Manufacturing
Image Data Collection
AI-Powered Image Data Collection for Medical Devices
As a hardware-free solution, Vision Command serves as an added intelligence layer to help you make better inspection decisions. The software collects data from the image database associated with your current vision system and can be easily customized to match your specific environment.
Advanced Device Inspection
Deep Learning for Advanced Medical Device Inspection
Using deep learning AI models and batch-based analysis, Vision Command detects even the most subtle variations in device construction, catching defects earlier in the production process. The model can also verify that each device has the necessary manufacturer marks and/or ID numbers.
Defect Categorization and Decision
Defect Categorization & Root Cause Identification using AI
Vision Command determines whether identified irregularities are acceptable cosmetic variations or unacceptable functional defects that could negatively impact device performance. Model data can also help identify the root cause of defects in order to implement corrective procedures.
Continuous Deployment and Monitoring
AI-Based Continuous Monitoring Across Production Lines
The vision model continues to update and improve itself with every inspected image, delivering consistently reliable results without the fatigue factor of human inspection. It reduces manufacturing bottlenecks and can be easily scaled across multiple production facilities.
