Imagine a factory where machines sense minute vibrations that precede failure, where every part is inspected the moment it’s made, and where production lines adjust themselves automatically for optimal performance. This is not a distant vision of Industry 4.0; it’s the new reality made possible by smart sensors, the silent yet indispensable foundation of digital manufacturing.

For decades, quality control was the final checkpoint of manufacturinga – line of defense between production and the customer. It was a discipline built around inspection reports, go/no-go gauges, and the belief that catching errors was the best way to ensure quality. But in today’s digital, data-driven manufacturing environment, that paradigm is shifting dramatically. Quality control is no longer an endpoint – it’s becoming the engine room of manufacturing intelligence.
