Musashi AI Introduces Surface Inspection AI Software Upgrades

Musashi AI, a leading industrial automation technology company specializing in AI-based automated visual inspection technology, will introduce the latest updates to their Cendiant® Inspect turnkey AI software and their Automated Shaft Inspector at Automate 2025 in Detroit, May 12–15.

In automotive manufacturing, grinding machines are used on parts such as camshafts to achieve the desired profile. A part defect known as chatter can occur during the grinding process due to tool imbalance and machine vibration, leading to part quality issues and customer complaints. A new surface inspection model developed for Cendiant Inspect software specifically targets this issue, offering results similar to those achieved with dedicated optical shaft measurement machines.

“Chatter is a production outcome that is common but difficult to detect, and this is a recurring message Musashi has heard from its customer base as of late,” says Frederick Reinink, business development specialist at Musashi AI. “With this new model, Cendiant Inspect delivers accurate and repeatable detection of defects that are nearly imperceptible to the human eye while replacing the need for time-intensive and costly optical shaft measurement machines. Ultimately, this reduces waste and rework.”

In addition to the software update, Musashi AI will debut a chatter inspection module at Automate 2025. The unit can be added easily to the standard Automated Shaft Inspector machine.

“AI-enabled automated inspection software today must be flexible enough to address a wide variety of complex applications across industries,” says Pierre Quenioux, North America sales manager at Musashi AI. “The introduction of the chatter inspection model is just an example of how Musashi AI can incorporate different inspection methods with our software to reliably detect the most challenging types of defects. We leverage our proven experience with complex automotive parts to provide automated AI solutions for high volume applications in the electronics, consumer goods, oil and gas, food, and paramedical industries as well.”

Improved Inspection, Faster Integration

Newly added to the Cendiant Quality Insights data visualization and insights platform is a ticketing system that keeps Musashi AI engineers in the loop. This tool allows customers to interact directly with the Musashi AI team to provide real-time feedback on inspection performance, allowing the team to address false negatives, anomalies, system changes or deviations, and overall system performance.

“With our surface inspection upgrades and the direct feedback ticketing system, Musashi AI streamlines processes for businesses and speeds up integration and deployment for integrators and manufacturers,” says Edward van Amstel, managing director of Musashi AI.
