2. Identifies orientation of part
3. Finds large visible defects
4. Finds short shots
5. Verifies serial number after getting serial number on print station

After X-ray inspection, if parts are defective, label is attached to the parts either inside X-ray cabinet or outside on “Reject” station. The complete loading/unloading and visuall as well as x-ray evaluation is executed automatically and no human operator is involved. 

Note:
This system is suitable for fully automatic inspection of any complex part. Different parts require design changes to the loading and unloading station.
