Test stands and visions systems ensure only good parts are shipped…

Before a manufacturer ships the final product they usually need to be tested to verify compliance with end customer specifications. Typically parts are checked for correct dimensional tolerances, acceptable leak rates, and flaw detection.

For quality assurance and control purposes systems often use machine vision, leak test technology, or other sophisticated sensing means to detect, validate, classify and record part parameters. Operator screens show instantaneous inspection results and customized production reports can be printed for hard documentation of results.

Tri City Automation has also developed several high end test rigs used in the thermal performance testing of heat exchanger and fuel cell components.
