■ Focused only on “length” — and that’s the beauty of it.
Our priority with this system was simplicity.
Immediately after the final machining step,
the system performs 100% inspection on length only.
By narrowing the focus to just one dimension,
we dramatically reduced the cost per machine
and enabled real-time feedback directly to the production line.
As a result, rework on NG parts is no longer necessary,
and we can prevent defective parts from flowing into the next process —
contributing to a more stable and efficient production line overall.
■ Optimization over complication.
When designing an inspection system,
there’s a natural temptation to say, “Let’s measure everything automatically.”
However, that approach often brings unwanted risks:
① Increased equipment cost
② More adjustment points during setup
③ Longer downtime when issues occur
Ultimately, this can lead to lower uptime and inconsistent accuracy.
Instead, by intentionally focusing on a simple, single-purpose design,
we achieved a balance of field practicality, low cost, and high productivity —
the essence of true “shop-floor optimization.”
■ Conclusion
This total length measuring system is a great example of how
a “simple one-point measurement” approach can actually deliver the highest productivity.
It represents our belief that simplicity is the smartest form of efficiency.
If you’re thinking,
“High-end systems are too expensive, but I can’t compromise on quality,”
then this solution is for you.
We offer affordable, practical inspection systems built for real factory use.
Let’s make it another productive and successful week ahead!
