In automotive, "defect-free" isn't a target — it's the requirement.
Automotive supply chains run on zero-defect expectations, dense part mixes, and traceability back to the exact batch a component came from. Tech Genesys builds machine vision inspection for machined parts, castings, fasteners, rubber and plastic components, assemblies, labels, markings, and critical dimensions — matched to the tolerance and documentation standards Tier 1 and OEM programs expect.
A component that reaches an OEM line has already passed through multiple suppliers, and a defect caught late doesn’t stop at one part — it stops a line, triggers a containment action, or worse, ships in a vehicle. Manual inspection can’t sustain the consistency this industry expects.
OEM and Tier 1 quality programs expect defect rates measured in parts per million, not percentage points.
Quality documentation, control plans, and inspection records need to hold up to formal supplier audits.
A missed defect on a safety-critical part can trigger a costly containment action or field recall long after shipment.
Metal castings, rubber seals, and molded plastic trim moving through the same line each demand different lighting and optics.
JIT and JIS delivery schedules leave no slack for manual inspection to catch up when volumes spike.
Every part needs to be traceable back to its batch and supplier lot to support a rapid, targeted containment if an issue surfaces.
Each checkpoint below can run independently or combined into a single inspection cell, matched to your part mix, material, and required tolerance.
Verifies dimensional accuracy, surface finish, tool marks, and burrs on turned and milled components.
Detects porosity, shrinkage, flash, and surface defects on die-cast and sand-cast components before machining.
Checks thread condition, head type, length, and plating consistency on bolts, screws, and clips at high throughput.
Inspects seals, gaskets, and hoses for flash, tears, dimensional consistency, and bonding defects.
Identifies molding defects, color inconsistency, and dimensional variation on injection-molded trim and housings.
Confirms correct part presence, fastener seating, and multi-part alignment on sub-assemblies before they move downstream.
Checks compliance and identification labels — including safety, warning, and homologation labels — for correct content and placement.
Reads laser-etched and stamped part numbers, date codes, and traceability marks for legibility and correctness.
Measures safety-critical dimensions across part types against drawing tolerance, with results logged per part.
A die-cast housing, a rubber seal, and a wiring module each need different optics, lighting, and measurement approach — we match the setup to the part.
Dimensional and surface inspection on turned and milled parts.
Porosity, flash, and surface defect inspection on cast components.
Thread, plating, and length verification at high throughput.
Flash, tear, and dimensional inspection on molded rubber parts.
Color, flash, and dimensional inspection on interior and exterior trim.
Presence, routing, and connector seating checks on wiring harness modules.
