AUTOMOTIVE TIER 2/3

Components where traceability matters as much as detection.

Tier 2/3 suppliers work under OEM quality pressure — what matters is not only catching a defect, but documenting exactly which inspection version and configuration produced every result.

In the automotive supply chain, an assembly error or a missing component that passes inspection generates costs many times higher than catching it earlier in production — hence the emphasis on a repeatable, measurable decision instead of subjective operator judgement.

Traceability matters here as much as detection itself: knowing exactly which model, recipe and configuration produced the result for a specific part. AIVQC Server keeps a full publication history, and AIVQC Production records inspection history locally — directly supporting the audit requirements typical of this industry.

Components are also often produced in multiple variants for different platforms and OEM customers at once, which requires flexible station configuration without compromising version control.

What we look at during qualification

  • 01 Number of component variants produced on the same station
  • 02 OEM audit requirements around inspection-result traceability
  • 03 Line takt and the decision time available on the target hardware
  • 04 Criticality of each defect type from a function and safety perspective

FAQ

Automotive (Tier 2/3)

Does AIVQC support OEM traceability audit requirements?+

Server's publication history and Production's local inspection history record which model and configuration produced every result. The exact scope of compliance with a specific OEM's requirements is agreed individually.

Can one station handle several component variants for different platforms?+

Yes, provided the station has been qualified for each variant — recipes let you assign a separate inspection configuration to each one.
