Visual Inspection services sustain industry standards through the examination and evaluation of production. Visual inspection allows for the monitoring of production quality as well as watches for compliance with safety standards and sustainability, creating a safer, more regulated environment. Visual inspection services are centered around cameras that monitor the production process through the upgraded fasteners, batteries, pins, and cold-formed parts. Overall, visible inspection sustains industry standards by routinely checking the following issues:

  • Quality

  • Safety

  • Compliance

  • Maintenance

Visual inspection can watch for damaged, scratched, stained, or otherwise compromised parts. Inspection with vision systems lowers the risk of human error, which can assist in compliance with regulations as well as lower the cost of production. In addition to safety critical components, visual inspections also watch for compliance with industry specifications. The products are tested for compliance, along with the production, ensuring that conflicts can be handled before they affect the process as a whole.
