Google Cloud Vertex AI is a powerful cloud service for rapid and efficient training and deployment of machine learning models. Using Vertex AI in industrial use cases still involves a lot of manual work in field data acquisition and data set generation. This can be a significant barrier to adoption. It requires specialized expertise and can be time-consuming and error-prone.
SOTEC addressed this challenge and developed a one-click-train service for Vertex AI cloud service model training. This service automates the data acquisition and model training process. For the Freudenberg staff responsible for product quality it is making it easy to train or improve ML models. They don’t need specialized expertise in MLOps.
The one-click-train service is a valuable tool for Freudenberg Performance Materials staff. This service automates the data acquisition and training process. With the service integrated, the overall solution is generating significant time and cost savings and. It is also helping Freudenberg to get their ML models into visual production quality inspection faster and with great reliability on the results.
