Inspection and Process Record Audit for Complete Vehicle Final Assembly: Deployment and Upgrade

Data sources for inspection and process record scenarios in complete vehicle final assembly typically include ERP/MES systems, VIN and configuration

What the data for this use case looks like

Data sources for inspection and process record scenarios in complete vehicle final assembly typically include ERP/MES systems, VIN and configuration systems, supplier batch management systems, tightening tools, EOL test lines, and quality traceability systems. Data is generated in real time for each vehicle and archived in shifts. Covered content includes production orders, VIN lists, assembly work instructions, tightening torque data, offline test reports, rework records, consistency and release documents, and other related documents. Each vehicle’s data includes hundreds of configuration and part matching fields. Field formats include 17-digit VIN codes, torque values (newton meters), test result identifiers, and more.

What constraints do these characteristics impose on deployment and upgrades

This scenario generates high-frequency real-time data with complex field structures. During deployment, this requires adapting to high-concurrency read and write demands, so highly available database and cache services must be configured. Mixed-line production leads to large fluctuations in data volume. Sufficient connection pool capacity must be reserved to handle peak traffic. Multi-source data access requires pre-configuring data format verification rules during deployment to prevent invalid data from being written. For intranet deployment scenarios where public images cannot be pulled, all dependent component image packages must be exported in advance. Rolling update strategies must be used during upgrades to avoid production line downtime affecting production tempo.

How to configure the settings

The following configurations are based on FastGPT v4.17.0, and are adapted to the deployment needs of complete vehicle final assembly scenarios.

Configuration ItemRecommended SettingRationale
MONGODB_URIIntranet cluster address, maximum connection pool size set to 200Supports high-frequency writing of tightening and test data generated in real time for each vehicle
REDIS_URLIntranet cache instance with memory no less than 1000 MBCaches VIN and configuration matching results to reduce duplicate calculation overhead
DB_MAX_LINK150–250Adapts to concurrent connection fluctuations during mixed-line production
STORAGE_S3_ENDPOINTAccess address of intranet object storageStores large-volume documents such as offline test reports and rework records
FILE_TOKEN_KEYRandomly generated 32-bit stringEncrypts file download links to prevent unauthorized access
FE_DOMAINDomain name or IP address for intranet service accessConfigures a unified access entry for front-end and back-end services

Three common misconfigurations

  • No corresponding entry appears in the front-end model list after deploying a rerank model: The model container port is not mapped to the host network segment in the docker-compose configuration, or the FastGPT service and model container are not on the same intranet network.
  • Selecting a v2 version model but actually calling v1 version computing power: The FastGPT service is not restarted after modifying the configuration file, or the FE_DOMAIN parameter does not point to the deployment address of the v2 model.
  • Startup failure is logged after intranet deployment: The exported docker image does not include all dependent components, or the intranet environment cannot access necessary configuration resources.

How to confirm the configuration is correctly applied

  • Access the address configured in FE_DOMAIN, enter the model management page, and confirm that the corresponding entry exists in the list of deployed rerank models.
  • Initiate a simulated VIN matching query, check whether the database connection count in the service logs falls within the interval configured in DB_MAX_LINK.
  • Upload an offline test report, confirm that the file can be stored normally and downloaded via an authorized link, and verify that the STORAGE_S3_ENDPOINT configuration takes effect.
  • Restart the FastGPT service after modifying any configuration item, wait 10 minutes, then check the monitoring panel to confirm that the database and cache connection status is normal.
