Phoxter Inc. (Headquarters: Toyonaka City, Osaka Prefecture, Representative Director: Junichi Sonoda) will hold a free online seminar on July 31, 2026 (Fri) titled "AI for Automatic Judgment of 'False Positives' in Roll-to-Roll Sheet Inspection ~Automating Secondary Judgment Utilizing Existing Equipment~" aimed at solving challenges in visual inspection for Roll-to-Roll manufacturing processes of high-performance films, rubber, metal foil, and more.

Background and Challenges in Manufacturing Sites

In the Roll-to-Roll manufacturing process for continuous production of films, resins, metal foils, etc., visual inspection is crucial for quality assurance. However, increasing the sensitivity of existing sheet inspection equipment to prevent overlooking minor defects leads to frequent "false positives/over-detection," where good products are mistakenly identified as defective.

As a result, a "secondary judgment" process of re-confirmation by human visual inspection arises, causing serious issues such as increased labor costs in manufacturing sites, decreased yield, and further, the problem of reliance on individual expertise.

Seminar Details & Solution Approach

This seminar will introduce the "Folder Monitoring" function, which dramatically upgrades secondary judgment capabilities with AI while keeping currently operating sheet inspection equipment as is.

Phoxter's proprietary AI technology requires no annotation (tagging) work, which is a common hurdle for implementation. It builds a highly accurate judgment model in minutes and instantly selects "true defects" from images that the existing equipment has over-detected. We will practically explain concrete approaches to improve yield and significantly reduce monitoring personnel, with case studies.

Recommended for:

Those involved in Roll-to-Roll manufacturing processes for high-performance films, rubber, metal sheets, etc.

Those suffering from decreased yield due to frequent "false positives/over-detection" with existing sheet inspection machines.

Those who wish to resolve the issue of reliance on individual expertise in secondary judgment (visual confirmation) and reduce labor costs.
