The inspection systems were able to inspect product with the required accuracy and repeatability.

1. The Origins Of Inspection Services.
Back in the early 90’s 2 things were concrete and apparent. One was that any working
industry was demanding quality from its suppliers and it had to be 100% quality and a
vision for having some kind of technology that could be used in day to day activities was
coming near.
An industry whose main components had to be assembled to make a finished product for
example an automotive industry or Peripherals industry, many components being
produced or brought down would never meet “ZERO DEFECTS” requirements as they were
brought or had too been seen in bulk by suppliers who would use old book method of
sorting the components by hand and checking it all way round. Research has shown that
hand sorting is 85% effective in removing defective product. This hand sorting became
more and more time consuming and less and less reliable and as its consequence it was
costly with no results at all.
Around the same time in the corner was the most incredible innovation yet to see light but
in the making nevertheless and that was phrased as a “user-friendly” technology. Systems
were complicated, unreliable and expensive. With the development by DVT of the compact,
self-contained, vision sensor a new era had begun.
Then came into existence an order to provide the need to supply industry with 100%
defect free product in an efficient manner which is very professional, value added and cost
effective third party witness inspection and testing service The inspection systems were
able to inspect product with the required accuracy and repeatability. The inspection
process was no longer dependent upon an operator making an objective decision if the

2. product was acceptable or not. Each product would be inspected exactly the same, using
the same criteria, not influenced by stress, time of day, “feelings” or even what plans it had
for that evening! Inspection Services and witness testing of materials, witness of processes
including production operations, inspections, welding, heat treatment, NDT, plating and
other critical operations to ensure that they have been performed right. We add reliability
to your product and minimize your risk with our excellent witness inspection and testing
services. It later became apparent that some customer’s required sorting equipment for use
in their own facility design and build vision based sorting equipment that would
specifically meet the customer requirements and function well in the manufacturing
environment. This equipment marries the need for sophisticated vision technology with
the need for ruggedness, ease of use and the ability to survive in varying industrial
environments.
Few companies which offer these services are AQSS, Witness inspection, Kross inspectors
etc.
