Electronics Connector Assembly Verification
One of the largest electronics manufacturers needed an automated solution to inspect the proper assembly of complex connectors. There were multiple challenges: (1) verify multiple connections in one (connector, cable, and security latch). The defects were subtle and difficult to distinguish, with reflections & variable lighting increasing the challenge.
“The advances in this AI tool are really exciting. It seemed to be robust to the nuances of the connection and worked across variable conditions.”

The Challenge
Verifying proper assembly of multiple soft-seated connectors was extremely challenging. The customer needed to verify multiple connections in one inspection (connector, cable, and security latch). Defects were subtle and difficult to distinguish, with reflections and variable lighting increasing the difficulty.
Our Solution
We implemented a classifier algorithm trained on 10 images (5 good, 5 bad). The solution successfully trained all defect types in a single recipe and provided a confidence score for each inspection. This approach enabled the customer to accurately define pass/fail criteria & automate complex quality control process with 100% accuracy in highly variable conditions.
Application
- • PCB connector & component inspection
- • Soft-seated connector verification
- • 98% confidence threshold
Key Results
- • 100% accuracy across test samples
- • Single recipe for all defect types
- • Robust to variable conditions
