Fully Automated Inspection System for Engine Cylinder

Engine cylinders are among the most critical components in internal combustion engines. Precision in surface quality, roundness, bore diameter, and concentricity directly impacts performance, fuel efficiency, and longevity.

Manual inspection using gauges, borescopes, or sampling-based methods is not only slow and labor-intensive, but often fails to detect subtle defects or deviations in mass production. Intelgic solves this challenge with an AI-powered, fully automated cylinder inspection system that ensures 100% quality control — fast, consistent, and reliable.

What Intelgic’s System Inspects

Inspection Type Details
Visual Defect Detection Scratches, tool marks, dents, foreign particles, porosity
Bore Surface Inspection Cross-hatch pattern analysis, inner wall defects using angled lighting
Geometric Measurements Bore diameter, roundness, taper, concentricity (via vision + laser tools)
Edge & Chamfer Inspection Burrs, incomplete machining, sharp edges
Crack Detection AI-assisted crack detection in critical zones (valve seats, bore walls)
Part Presence / Orientation Confirming port holes, notches, cavities, oil passages, etc.

Inspection System Components

Imaging Hardware

  • High-resolution industrial cameras
  • Robotic arm or linear motion stage for rotation and multi-angle imaging
  • Specialized lighting (coaxial, low-angle, inner-bore dome lights, etc.)
  • Optional: laser triangulation or 3D profilers for dimensional checks

AI Software (Live Vision AI)

  • Region-wise inspection with tolerance settings
  • AI model training for variant-specific defect learning
  • Defect classification by type, size, severity
  • Real-time Pass/Fail logic
  • Image storage and inspection traceability

Automation & Integration

  • Robotic loader/unloader (optional)
  • Triggering via PLC or barcode scanning
  • Integration with MES/ERP systems
  • Optional Digital Quality Certificate (DQC) generation

Inspection Process Flow

Loading

Cylinder is loaded manually or by robot onto the inspection fixture or rotating stage

Positioning

Imaging devices move into position or rotate the cylinder for 360° coverage

Imaging

High-res cameras + lights capture all critical surfaces (bore, flange, side, threads))

Processing

AAI analyzes images in real-time to detect defects or deviations

Reporting

Generates visual reports and optionally DQC for each partt

Sorting

Defective parts can be automatically segregated (if integrated with robots)

Supported Cylinder Types

Automotive engine blocks (cast iron, aluminum)

Single engine cylinder sleeves and liners
