The Concept of Zero Defects in Quality Management | Simplilearn

Did you know railroads are still required to follow track inspection rules written in 1971—back when 8-track tapes were considered cutting edge? 🎶 Fast forward to today, railroads have technology like Automated Track Inspection (ATI) that use lasers and cameras mounted on locomotives and rail cars to inspect tracks—measuring performance under the real weight of trains. Why it matters: 🔹 Finds defects more accurately 🔹 Keeps inspectors safer 🔹 Speeds up repairs 🔹 Increases rail network effic
