Sintered Metals / Powertrain Components
Inspection Systems
With more than 600 installations worldwide, General Inspection develops and markets high speed, 100% measuring and sorting fastener inspection systems. The equipment enables highly precise 2D and/or 3D measurements, of high volume parts and components before they are introduced into production. This will help with eliminating costly process jams and malfunctions.
Gi’s fastener inspection systems, with easy to use standard software, are leading the way toward zero defect quality. Its equipment is used by companies around the world in production and quality control, for applications including: automotive, aerospace, industrial, railway, medical and furniture manufacturing.

Gi-100DT
Unique challenges exist regarding the inspection of high precision, high volume parts. Valve seats are mass produced and require high precision as well as free of visual defects such as porosity, cracks and other surface defects. The Gi-100DT combines precision, visual defect detection capability with high speed, gentle part handling. This combination has made Gi the preferred inspection system supplier to the major producers of valve seats.

VisionLab
VisionLab is the ultimate gauging and inspection solution for threaded fasteners. The system comes standard with backlighting and a smart motor controlled rotating stage. This patented system can process 360 part profiles in less than 10 seconds providing the most accurate and repeatable dimensional inspection results.

Gi-360T-SD
The Gi-360T-SD utilizes gravity to transport parts through a series of precision laser and machine vision sensors. Valve guides slide on a v-shaped track after two cameras measure and inspect the two faces for both dimensional features like ID, concentricity and visual surface damage. Heat-treatment verification is completed with adjustable frequency eddy-current, while all profile dimensions are measured to print specifications with a series of lasers that produce 3D full 360 inspection data. Last a series of cameras positioned around detect small visual defects all at rates of 300 per minute.
