| Abstract: | With the rapid development of the global manufacturing industry, an efficient and accurate quality control system has become key to enhancing competitiveness. Ultrasonic Nondestructive Testing (NDT), as an efficient means of quality inspection, plays a crucial role in improving manufacturing quality through the precision of its data analysis. This study aims to explore the application of ultrasonic NDT data in manufacturing quality control by integrating machine learning technologies, with a specific focus on the Wavelet Neural Network optimized by Genetic Algorithms (GA-WNN). This study achieved significant prediction and evaluation results by applying a GA-WNN to quality control in manufacturing. Compared to traditional Wavelet Neural Network (WNN) models, the GA-WNN more effectively identifies and predicts potential quality issues, especially in noisy data and complex production environments, demonstrating higher accuracy and stability. When predicting possible defect types in the manufacturing process, the GA-WNN showed a notable improvement in accuracy over other models. Additionally, in quality stability evaluation, GA-WNN was able to capture production fluctuations more accurately, providing more valuable results for decision-making. The methodologies and discoveries of this study offer new perspectives and tools for quality control in manufacturing and the analysis of ultrasonic NDT data, presenting broad application prospects. |
