AI in automated quality control
The Trigo Group has acquired industrial start-up Scortex, forming an alliance between a provider of quality consulting and inspection services in the transport and industrial sectors and a deep-tech company specializing in AI.
The Trigo Group (owned by the investment fund Ardian) has acquired the French start-up Scortex, which specializes in the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in automated quality control. Trigo plans to invest five million euros in Scortex by 2022 and double the number of employees at the new company.
Founded in Paris in 2016, Scortex is a 'deep tech' start-up offering cutting-edge machine vision technology for the manufacturing industry, serving the European automotive, luxury and aerospace markets. The start-up has developed an industrial platform for setting up quality control stations on production lines. The core of this platform is a deep learning technology and an infrastructure for managing and using large amounts of data for quality control. The deep learning algorithms developed by Scortex are able to learn and detect defects on parts in a production flow. The solution not only automates inspection, but also generates real-time data and statistics on production quality.
Trigo is an international company from France, specializing in operational quality management and consulting solutions for the automotive, aerospace, defense, rail and heavy transport industries.
