Vision models inspect products for defects, analyze surface quality, and classify anomalies. Upload production line images for automated inspection reports.
Analyze sensor data, vibration patterns, and equipment logs to predict failures. Reasoning models identify root causes and recommend maintenance schedules.
Optimize scheduling, resource allocation, and throughput. JSON mode produces structured production plans compatible with MES and ERP systems.
Generate SOPs, work instructions, and compliance documentation. Large context models process full specification documents and regulatory requirements.
