What gets saved
Every inspection stores the time, part number, lot, serial, operator, result, score, photo, defect heatmap and model version. You can pull up a part from last month and see what the station saw. The model version is saved too, so you can tell which trained model made each call.
Inspection runs on the station in your shop. A setting keeps part photos on the station, so only counts reach the dashboard. That matters if your customers restrict where part images can go. Check the setting against your own contract terms.
Overrides stay honest
An operator can override a verdict. The operator has to type a reason. The override is saved next to the original result, and the AI verdict is never overwritten. Nothing is deleted, and the override cannot hide the original verdict from anyone who looks later.
That gives an auditor the whole story: what the machine said, what the person decided, and why. It also shows the person was in charge. VZSOR flags, and the operator signs off. It also shows a person was in charge.
Answering questions
A customer calls about a scratched part from a lot you shipped. With photo records you can look up the lot, see the parts, and check whether the damage was visible when it left. That turns an argument into a look at the evidence. It also lets you see whether a problem was limited to one lot or run.
The records help you answer auditor questions about your inspection process. They do not make you compliant with anything on their own, and they are no substitute for your quality system. Your quality system and your auditor decide what is enough.
Getting data out
Results export to CSV, so the data can move into the spreadsheet, quality system or ERP your shop already uses. The web dashboard shows open alerts and the cost of scrap. Your people can sort by lot, operator or result, and print what a customer asks for.
Records only cover parts that went through the station. Parts checked elsewhere are not in the log. The pilot is the time to decide which fields and layout your customers want to see. The pilot is the time to decide which fields and what layout your customers want to see, so the export matches how you already work.
How a shop sets it up
- Decide what identifies a part: lot, serial or both.
- Have each operator log in or enter their name at the start of a shift.
- Train the station on one part number, about 60 good photos and 30 minutes.
- Agree with your quality lead which CSV fields you need exported.
Limits, stated plainly
- The records describe what the station inspected. They do not cover other inspection steps.
- VZSOR is not a quality management system and does not replace one.
- The records show what was inspected, nothing more. They help you answer questions.
- Inspection results are only as good as the model for that part, and a pilot measures that.
