Zero - AI Anomaly Detection

Misaligned, damaged, or open cases cause major downstream disruption. Industry data shows 2–3% of palletising stoppages are linked to case defects, and a single jam can halt production for 10–20 minutes, often costing €1,000+ per hour in downtime.

With increasing SKU variation and shrinking product sizes, traditional sensors simply aren’t enough.

Zero is SIGA’s AI-powered anomaly detection system — built to ensure every carton or case is verified before palletising.

What Zero Does

Zero uses advanced machine vision and AI to inspect cartons in real time and flag anomalies before they cause disruption.

Detects:

  1. Rips 
  2. Tears
  3. Holes
  4. Missing or damaged tape
  5. Open flaps
  6. Dents
  7. Orientation errors

Unlike photocell-based systems that only detect height or open flaps, Zero learns what “good” looks like and alerts you to deviations — even as your product range evolves

Available Feature Modules

Zero is modular and scalable to your requirements.

Defect Classification

Identifies and labels defect types to support root cause analysis and customer reporting.

Dimensions

Measures case height and/or width to validate compliance with specification.

Orientation Detection

Ensures correct case alignment — critical when product sizes have changed post-installation.

Barcode Reading

Enables full replacement of traditional open-flap detection systems and supports additional traceability
