By increasing the frequency of inspections and decreasing the time of inspection throughout the production process, inspecting in or near the production line allows for verification of 100% of components.

Today’s manufactured components are more multifaceted than ever, requiring more parts, additional updates to those parts and ever tighter tolerances.
The scope of inspection is so vast that no one wanted to exclude a topic, but we also did not want a standard so detailed that it was not user friendly.
The journey to create a standard is very interesting and requires attention to detail. Before a standard can be created one must develop the need and benefits for its development.
To simplify and hasten the measurement process, manufacturers are bringing measurement to the production line for verification, minimizing the time needed to refine machining.

As technology evolves, so do consumers’ tastes. We want more connected products that require increasingly integrated electronic components — such as household electronics that are connect to our phones.
Across just about all industries that have tanks, piping upon supports or piping entering the ground, clients are faced with inspection challenges and specific concerns on how to inspect the critical areas of these three asset components.
Issues in production are inevitable. To ensure that parts meet quality controls and customer requirements, manufacturers must occasionally inspect and adjust their processes.
First Article Inspection (FAI) is the process of planning, manufacturing, and verifying a production process. In the aerospace and defense industries in the U.S., most companies conduct AS9102 First Article Inspections.
Additive manufacturing (AM) has many advantages when compared to traditional subtractive manufacturing processes for the fabrication of low-volume, high-value, complex-shaped parts.
As additive manufacturing (AM) applications are more widely adopted, processes and material specifications, testing and inspection requirements are all gaining importance.
In today’s manufacturing environment, automatic vision inspection has been widely applied in many different industries including semiconductor, electronics, food and beverage, pharmaceutical packaging, automotive, and many others.
