Inspection
of part alignment and welds provides a critical quality check on auto safety
devices such as inflator cylinder assemblies.
Part
Alignment - measures the surface angle of the two joined
parts. Angle limits are established and parts not meeting those specs
are rejected.
Butt
Weld-
verifies weld presence and measures weld parameters for conformance to
specifications.
Other
Manufacturing Applications 1. Contour
- inspect features such as radii and steps on stamped and machined parts.
2. Gap/Flush
- quality check on machined gaps or grooves in parts.
3. Lap
Weld - verification that weld parameters are within specifications.
4. Pitting
- inspection of surface porosity on parts.
5. Scratches
- measurement of etching depths to verify compliance with specifications.
