CDS Manufacturing completed an automatic system that inspects worm gear shafts for journal diameter and inspects for the presence of chips wrapped around both ends. Parts we fed from a vibratory bowl feeder to a gravity track with the parts oriented end to end with the short end leading. A hold and release mechanism allowed one part at a time into an inspection nest where an LED inspection system measured the journal diameter. Upon completion of the journal diameter inspection, a vision system, with the aid of back lighting, inspected the part for chips wrapped around either end of the part. A good / reject part gating system was provided to separate the parts. Parts found to have a journal diameter that did not fall within the specified limits were gated as rejects. Parts that passed the LED and vision inspection were gated as good parts and exited the system via the output chute provided. Company Information: Name: CDS Manufacturing Address: 1133 Mt.
