General Inspection Adds to its Line of Inspection Systems

In today’s zero-defect environment, the quality of your inspection technology is a critical factor in your ability to compete. General Inspection LLC manufactures a complete line of gauging, sorting, and inspection systems and it recently added a new multi-gate system to their line of ammunition inspection machines. The multi-gate system allows Gi inspection systems to segregate parts by dimensional conformity, defect levels, and defect types.

The Gi-360T, Gi-6v, and Gi-636v systems can now each be equipped with the new multi-gate system. After several months of R&D Gi demonstrated the capabilities to an ammo manufacturer that needed the ability to segregate projectiles into grades to accommodate their full range of customers. They purchased a Gi-360T with the multi-gate and have since incorporated the inspection system into their process. They can now offer projectiles at different quality levels, a huge competitive advantage by offering price flexibility to their customers.    

“This option has been available on a few of our inspection systems, but our ammunition manufacturing customers demanded this functionality to allow them to classify ammunition cases, cartridges, and projectiles by quality grades. Or to simply segregate defect types: Visual, dimensional, primer, and mouth to quickly identify breakdowns within their production processes,” says says Greg Nygaard, vice-president of sales and marketing.  geninsp.com
