Gocator is used in all major inline manufacturing processes for quality control and improved factory production. PART MANUFACTURING Most parts from processes such as casting, machining, and injection molding are never inspected. Gocator provides 100% inline quality control to ensure every part meets key manufacturing tolerances. COMPONENT ASSEMBLY As parts come together to build product assemblies, how each part fits with another determines overall assembly quality. Gocator verifies proper adhesion, fastening, surface gap & flush and more. Finish and sealing is critical to product acceptance....
