About HEXA IoT

The HEXA IoT department was set up in 2018 by Hexa Food Sdn Bhd, a SME company manufacturing food products such as herbs, spices and seasonings, and aimed at assisting the company to realize its goals of global expansion and transformation through the Internet of Things (IoT) and digitalization. In the process, it has also provided IoT solutions to other SMEs in the manufacturing, agriculture and environmental sectors to revolutionize their own work processes for optimum growth, where productivity, efficiency and competitiveness take centre-stage to improve output and throughput.

Our Expertise

With over 15 years of experience in SME and food manufacturing, our team understands the common problems and challenges faced by SMEs. We intend to solve manufacturing/agricultue sectors' problems by using IoT solution. Current technology is fully wireless, battery powered and cloud integrated. We aim to deliver solutions that are best suited for SMEs.

Our current areas of focus are: Manufacturing, Agriculture and Artificial Intelligence.

Innovation & Reality

The IoT concept is not altogether new and HEXA IoT has been at the forefront of this revolutionary conception with numerous innovative IoT devices designed in-house, in tandem with its digitalization growth. Notwithstanding that, the application of IoT in manufacturing and other industries has proven to be difficult and demanding, making it challenging for businesses to fully embrace it. However, recent advances in a number of different technologies have demonstrated that incorporating IoT is now becoming a reality for businesses on a wider scale.

Why Choose Us?

We pride ourselves on being one of the Malaysia-Made IoT solution providers and a 100% Malaysian-owned company, exemplifying the phrase “Malaysia Boleh” Our IoT solutions are tailored for SMEs, and we have made them extremely simple to use. They do not have complicated features, yet are precise and stable. Furthermore, these solutions are affordable and suitably priced for SMEs.

How can I use Visual Quality Inspection to stop defective products during Quality Control?

The traditional way of visual inspection comprises of direct, manual examination using the naked eye, sometimes with simple tools like a magnifying glass or flashlight, to look for surface defects, wear, and inconsistencies. To reduce the fatigue and variability associated with human inspection, Luxio-AI system addresses this by using cameras and software to continuously monitor products for production lines. It utilizes artificial intelligence and computer vision to inspect 100% of the products in real time, automatically identifying defects like scratches, cracks, or color mismatches.

Can your AI models be trained for specific or unique products?

Yes, absolutely. Creating custom models for unique products is often a "black box" process with limited client input, leading to models that miss subtle defect nuances. The Luxio-AI system is designed to be trained on specific products, where reference images of both good and defective items are gathered to create a custom AI model tailored precisely to required quality standards. Once this foundation is established, the PANDORA AI platform is available to provide full autonomy for internal teams. This code-free interface allows operators to independently Label, Train, and Deploy model updates as production evolves.

How can we automate the rejection process to avoid manual sorting?

The manual sorting rejection process involves human operators identifying items that fail to meet specific criteria, removing them from the main flow, and placing them into a designated "reject" stream for further handling, analysis, or disposal. To create a fully closed loop quality control system, the PANDORA AI communicates with hardware by integrating directly with PLC (Programmable Logic Controller). When a defect is spotted, the system triggers sorting mechanisms like robotic arms, air jets, or pusher rejectors to remove the item from the conveyor belt without human intervention.

How does this technology handle subtle or organic defects that standard cameras usually miss?

Traditional Rule Based Machine Vision only looks for fixed measurements like width or height, which often fails with variable products. In contrast, Deep Learning models that are used in Luxio-AI learn what a good product looks like from examples. This allows the system to spot subtle or variable defects, such as organic textures in food, unpredictable scratches on metal, or complex patterns, much more effectively than older systems.
