How It Works
A model that runs on your floor, trained on your parts.
Procunit ships as an on-premises inference container. Your defect images, your labeled training data, your model weights — nothing leaves your facility unless you export it. The product is not a cloud dashboard that happens to touch your line. It runs on your IPC.
Architecture
On-premises inference. Under 8ms total.
Training Flow
From defect samples to live pass/fail in one working day.
Capture
50+ defect samples photographed with your line cameras or a phone — real defects from your actual production run
Label
Draw bounding boxes in Procunit Labeler. Keyboard-driven: 50 images labeled in roughly 30 minutes. No annotation service required.
Train
Training runs on your IPC overnight — 6 to 12 hours depending on dataset size. No cloud upload, no GPU workstation needed.
Inspect
Activate the model on your camera channel. PLC reject coil fires within 8ms. Retrain any time a new defect class appears or the part family changes.
