Automated inspection of small industrial components, including sub-centimetre-scale parts where defects are geometry-driven and poorly resolved by standard optical cameras, calls for sensing modalities that can directly capture fine surface geometry. Vision-based tactile sensors address this need by converting contact imprints into high-resolution image-like data compatible with existing deep-learning pipelines, yet their effective use for industrial anomaly detection (AD) remains largely unexplored. This work systematically evaluates unsupervised AD methods on a real tactile dataset covering five genuine industrial components acquired with a GelSight Mini sensor mounted on a collaborative robot. Four feature-embedding methods, SPADE, PaDiM, FAPM, and InReaCh, are compared under three validations explicitly motivated by the deployment constraints of contact-based sensing: a Good Fraction analysis establishing the minimum number of nominal contacts for stable performance, directly bounded by gel wear since every acquisition degrades the soft interface; a cross-position evaluation assessing generalization across different contact locations observing the same recurring surface pattern; and a low- versus high-resolution comparison evaluating the cost-benefit of higher-resolution tactile acquisition. Overall, this systematic benchmarking study provides practical guidance for researchers and practitioners adopting vision-based tactile sensing for industrial AD and shows how this modality can serve as a viable alternative for industrial quality-control tasks.
