Roller Bearing Inspection
The machine vision system inspects two categories of parts – automotive rollers and diesel rollers. There are three inspection stations. Stations 1 and 2 inspect the ID and OD of the parts (only station 1 is used for the smaller parts while both stations are used for the larger parts). Station 3 performs inspections on the end faces of the rollers.
