Aerospace and defense manufacturing runs largely on manual assembly, with slow cycle times where every connection, every cap, every routed wire has to be right. There's no margin for a missed inspection on a part headed for the field. Detect-It Net Runner provides live, 24/7 video inspection for the entire time a part is in station — built and deployed by your own team, in as little as 24 hours.


These are real applications built and deployed on real aerospace and defense components — not concept renderings. Detect-It watches the part for the entire time it's in station, catching what a single visual check at the end of the line never could.

electrical pin inspection

An inspection on all of the pins of an electrical connector on a large aerospace component. The combination of manual assembly and slower cycle times make Detect-It the perfect tool to ensure quality in Aerospace manufacturing.

build component verification

The hydraulic caps are detected as missing in the first scan and then a worker installs the caps in station in real time during inspection, cutting out scrap, bad parts and rework down the line. The part finally scans green and is released.

rivet kitting

Ensuring that rivet kits contain the correct components and are in the right orientation prior to sealing and distribution to assembly stations. Detect-It can help ensure that no errors are made during manually assembly processes.

kit component inspection

Detect-It AI Software makes sure all components in each assembly kit are correct and where they are supposed to be in the tray. Our live video detection tool is always on providing constant assurance and feedback to workers at each station.

a missed defect doesn’t just cost money — it costs trust

what’s at stake

regulatory compliance

FAA, EASA, and defense program certification leave zero room for an undocumented error. A single non-conformance can trigger a full audit, stop a production line, or delay a program by months. Compliance isn't a checkbox — it's the price of staying in the program.

slow manual cycles

Long cycle times mean a part sits in station long enough for a connector to go unmated, a cap to go uninstalled, or a wire to go unrouted — with no one watching. A single visual check at the end of the line doesn't catch what happened in the middle of it.

high cost of rework

In aerospace, rework isn't just expensive — it can invalidate previous inspection steps and restart certification requirements from scratch. Catching a defect in station takes seconds. Catching it after the part has moved costs thousands, or delays a delivery milestone entirely.

complex supply chaiins

Aerospace assemblies draw components from dozens of suppliers, all of which have to arrive correctly kitted, oriented, and verified at every station. When a hardware tray or rivet kit is wrong, the worker often doesn't know until it's too late to fix it in station.
