Phoxter Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toyonaka, Osaka; Representative Director: Junichi Sonoda) will be exhibiting at the '11th Manufacturing World Nagoya,' held at Portmesse Nagoya from Wednesday, April 8 to Friday, April 10, 2026.
At this exhibition, we will demonstrate our latest AI inspection solutions, which combine optimal optical design with 'StellaController 2.0' to address difficult-to-inspect workpieces that have previously been challenging to automate, such as resin molded parts, metals, circuit boards, and wood. You will be able to experience our 'AI Visual Inspection' system, which allows for the construction of high-precision AI models easily without the need for annotation.

■ Exhibition Highlights
1 | Demonstration of Difficult Inspections via 'Optimal Optics × AI Inspection'
By combining inspection algorithms capable of handling 'difficult-to-inspect products'—previously considered a barrier to AI adoption—with specialized optical design, we will conduct live defect detection demonstrations for various products, including resin molded parts, metal products, circuit boards, and wood.
You can see the capabilities of our 'General-Purpose AI Inspection,' which is in high demand on manufacturing floors, using actual samples.
2 | No Annotation Required: Build High-Precision AI Models in Short Time
With our proprietary 'StellaController 2.0,' the annotation work previously required can be skipped, requiring only minimal initial setup. This provides benefits such as:
- Significant reduction in setup and launch man-hours
- Reduced tuning burden for each production line
- Easy horizontal deployment across multiple lines and factories
3 | Experience the User-Friendly Interface On-Site
'StellaController 2.0' features a user interface that can be operated intuitively without specialized knowledge. Anyone can easily perform:
- Inspection settings
- Parameter adjustments
- Operational monitoring
At the exhibition, you can operate the system yourself to get a clear image of how it will function once introduced to your facility.
