CDS Manufacturing designed and built this inner diameter inspection machine to inspect the ID of tubular parts.

The operator loads parts into the bulk hopper. The bulk hopper supplies parts to the vibratory bowl feeder. The number of parts in the vibratory bowl feeder is automatically maintained. Properly oriented parts are fed to the inspection station where an attempt is made to drop a gage ball through the part using only gravity. Sensors monitor the position of the gage ball to confirm that the it has passed all the way through the part. Good and reject parts are gated accordingly and exit the system via their respective output chutes.
