description Abstract Gasket inspection is a critical step in the quality control of a product. The proposed method automates the detection of misaligned or incorrectly fitting gaskets, ensuring timely repair action. The suggested method uses deep learning approaches to recognize and evaluate radiator images, with a focus on identifying misaligned or incorrectly installed gaskets. Deep learning algorithms are specific for feature extraction and classification together with a convolutional neural network (CNN) module that allows for seamless connection. A gasket inspection system based on a CNN architecture is developed in this work. The system consists of two sets of convolution layers, followed by two sets of batch normalization layer, two sets of RELU layer, max pooling layer and finally fully connected layer for classification of gasket images. The obtained results indicate that our system has great potential for practical applications in the manufacturing industry. Moreover, our system provides a reliable and efficient mechanism for quality control, which can help reduce the risk of defects and ensure product reliability.
