Stable quality control is one of the indispensable and important links in manufacturing industry. With the rapid development of intelligent factory and artificial intelligence technology, Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) has gradually replaced the traditional manual inspection, and has become the mainstream with its advantages of high efficiency, high accuracy and non-contact detection. The core of AOI lies in powerful real-time computing and machine learning, which needs to rely on the powerful computing power of CPU and GPU to support. Robust Embedded Computer brand – Cincoze has recently launched a new robust embedded computer – High Performance &PCIe Extended embedded computer (DS-1400 series) under the DIAMOND product line. Not only equipped with ultra-high performance CPU, but also support PCIe interface GPU card, since the market, has become the focus of attention in the field of AOI, is the ideal choice for edge AI computers.

CPU+GPU combined to improve detection efficiency and accuracy

In the past, the manufacturing industry usually used manual inspection to examine the yield of the production line, which was less efficient and prone to errors. With the introduction of AOI (Automatic Optical Inspection) technology, powerful processing power is utilized to improve the efficiency and accuracy of product inspection. As the operating core of the DS-1400 series, it can be equipped with Intel® 7-process 12th-generation Alder Lake-S processors with up to 16 cores (8P+8E), DDR5 has a memory of up to 64GB 4800MHz and Error Correction Code (ECC) technology. In addition, it is designed with up to two PCI/PCIe expansion slots, which can support a single expansion card up to 110W with dimensions of 111mm x 235mm. Desson’s patented PCIe mounting bracket (patent number: I773359) also ensures the DS-1400’s stable operation in industrial sites with constant vibration, achieving accurate and high-speed detection efficiency.

Rich I/O and elastic expansion to meet the seriation needs of AOI

As the key core of the AOI, the DS-1400 must be able to interconnect with peripheral devices such as high-speed lenses, light sources, sensors and displays. In addition to the native high-speed I/O interface (2x1GbE LAN, 8xUSB), in the reserved expansion area can also be extended through the exclusive modular 10GbE LAN, M12 LAN, USB3.2 interface or PoE function. The built-in Mini PCIe slot can be paired with WIFI/4G module to achieve wireless communication function, allowing personnel to remotely monitor production status and related information in real time.

Strong security, military grade verification standards

As the edge AI computer under the Decheng Rugged-Diamond product line, the DS-1400 series continues Decheng’s consistent rugged-security philosophy. In addition to its wide temperature (-40 to 70°C), wide voltage (9-48V), over voltage, over current and electrostatic protection, the DS-1400 series also complies with the Military code for shock shock resistance standard MIL-STD-810G, proving its stable and safe operation in harsh industrial environments for long periods of time.
