About General Inspection
General Inspection LLC manufactures a complete line of gauging, sorting, and inspection systems incorporating: Laser, eddy current and vision technologies for dimensional measurement, determining metallurgical defects as a method for achieving zero defects. Gauging, inspection and sorting systems assure quality in product size, shape and structure. In today’s zero defect environment, the quality of your inspection technology is a critical factor in your ability to compete.
In 1991 Gi started manufacturing 100% sorting machines designed for fastener and screw machine part manufacturers. In 2003 General Inspection performed a complete overhaul of their machines and introduced 6 new systems. Research and development remains key to Gi’s success.
All new developments are state of the art and continue to revolutionize inspection technology. Please take some time to browse our website for information on current products and to get a feel for us and our customer’s experiences!
Frequently Asked Questions

Gi has a dynamic team creating extraordinary results through passion, desire and a “do whatever it takes” approach to customer service. Gi has a global sales and service network with ten technicians based in the USA, South America, Europe and Asia. As the great Henry Ford once stated, “Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress and working together is success”.
2. Versatility
Standard Gi inspection machines are in use in the automotive,
aerospace, military/defense, industrial, and pharmaceutical industries. So you
can be confident that investing in Gi inspection systems is a sound decision.
3. Software
User-friendly software is at the heart of each Gi inspection system, with a unique homegrown, menu-driven, software program. This platform is used throughout Gi’s complete product line and grows organically through new applications derived from our vast, diverse, customer base.
4. Never Stretch Capabilities
We won’t stretch capabilities of a single sensing technology, instead we find the right combination of sensors for each system to ensure the most accurate measurements and comprehensive visual defect detection. No single sensor is perfect for all applications. With over 70+ patents Gi combines user-friendly software with state-of-the-art sensing technologies. From laser gauging to uniquely designed vision optics to 3D internal measurement capabilities Gi has the most challenging applications covered.
5. Unrivalled Efficiency
Maximizing throughput while providing extremely accurate results is our strength. Complete project analysis is performed for every application so we can determine the perfect automation to use with each Gi inspection machine. Whether the application calls for a system dedicated to a single part, or to identify, inspect, and segregate over 20,000 parts, Gi delivers, efficiently.
6. Flexible Configurations
We have the most complete line of standard inspection systems available. Each application provides unique automation challenges and Gi has designed standard machines and feeders to create perfect synergy between part transport and inspection. From gravity feed to precision stainless steel conveyors, each transport mechanism has been designed to maximize throughput and achieve the most accurate inspection results.
7. Rugged Design
Let’s face it, manufacturing parts can be an oily, dirty process. Gi understands the conditions and designs each machine to withstand extremely harsh environments. And we’ve done so for decades of 24/7/365 operation.
