How Allie Works Here

From signal to action in real time.

Quality ControlProduction Optimization

The Quality Control agent maintains per-SKU vision pass/fail models updated with each production run, automatically tightening or relaxing inspection thresholds based on the print head age curve learned from Domino OPC-UA diagnostics data. When OCR read rate on date codes drops below 99.2%, the leading indicator for impending print head degradation, the agent schedules a head clean during the next micro-break rather than waiting for a hard fail. The Production Optimization agent analyzes the false reject pattern in real time and distinguishes mechanical misalignment rejects from true print defects, enabling targeted corrective action rather than blanket threshold relaxation.
