I. Quick Answer Yes, modern assembly machines can detect defective products during the assembly process and automatically reject them without stopping the production line. This is a standard feature in advanced automated assembly systems. II. How It Works Step Action 1 Parts are fed into the assembly machine (e.g., via a vibratory bowl feeder). 2 Inspection stations are placed at key points in the assembly sequence (e.g., after part insertion, after fastening, after final assembly). 3 Sensors or vision systems check each product for defects. 4 If a product passes inspection, it continues to the next station. 5 If a product fails inspection, the machine triggers a reject mechanism (air blast, pusher, diverter) to remove the defective part […]
