  • 1.  Visual Control Tools to Expedite Operator Inspections

    Posted 07-25-2022 11:53 PM

     

    I'm looking for recommendations to source "go / no-go" gauges, templates or devices that can be retro-fitted to existing measurement devices or fixtures to expedite visual inspection by operators (or craftspersons);  e.g.  plastic arrows on wheel lugs, red/green stencils or caps to fit on temperature or pressure gauges,  belt tension or sag gauge.......etc. etc.    Does anyone have a source for these types of tools that can be purchased, borrowed, or begged from a vendor or manufacturing company that has already retro-fitted their equipment??   The idea is to make as much of the visual inspection "dummy-proof" as possible and enable the inspector to quickly detect out of specification conditions.   Appreciate your feedback.  Rob
