End-quality inspection must be highly sensitive to detect even minimal deviations, while being fast and accurate. However, quality inspection systems often face calibration intricacies, are time-consuming, and rely heavily on expert knowledge. They handle substantial data flows and inspect numerous features, some of which contribute minimally to the final grade. To address these challenges, the paper proposes employing statistically supervised machine learning methods for classification. Decision trees, Random forests, Bagging, and Gradient boosting classifiers are recommended for feature selection and accurate diagnosis, particularly for electric motor classification. By utilizing the feature importance attribute for feature selection, the proposed approach compares model accuracies, reducing rampup and commission times significantly. The study found that all suggested classifiers achieved high accuracy in classifying electric motors in end-of-line quality inspection system. Moreover, they effectively reduced the number of features and optimize database operations. Utilizing a reduced feature set streamlined diagnostic algorithms, accelerated learning, and improved model interpretability, enhancing overall efficiency and comprehension. Furthermore, analysing the feature importance attribute could simplify diagnostic hardware and expedite quality inspection by eliminating unnecessary steps. Newly generated models can also verify expert decisions on feature selection and limit adjustments, enhancing efficiency in production processesTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Mariboru, Fakulteta za strojništvo
