Pin Gauge Classifier

Cross Pin Gauge Classifier Solution

Have you ever grabbed the wrong pin? Would you even know if you had? Working with the wrong pin could have real repercussions in a manufacturing process. Some of these include failing good product, passing bad product, and even potentially leading to costly product recalls.

At Cross Company Automation, we know how much of a setback any of the above repercussions can be to an OEM or other industrial manufacturing operation. That’s why we work with our customers to develop custom solutions that can prevent these problems from happening in the first place.

Cross Engineering has developed a pin gauge classifier which utilizes a top of the line laser scan micrometer coupled with a custom designed software application. This setup allows accurate, quick, and easy checks of pin gauges, no matter what your process setup looks like. Check out some of the benefits of the pin gauge classifier our team has developed.

How Cross Can Help Your Operation

Implementing a Cross Company pin gauge classifier can provide your operation with greater utility and control over your production process. Our pin gauge classifier database is user defined and updated in real-time, meaning as pins are added or removed from the inventory, the database is updated across the facility. This reduces the risk of a process deviation or a costly product recall. The equipment also has the ability to restrict end user access so that line personnel can not adjust settings. At Cross, quality systems integrity is always our goal.

This solution also benefits operations in the form of library integrity. The system is able to report the total number of pins in the pin gauge library. With this internal check, end users can see that the correct library is in use. Excel files can also be password protected and locked for editing. The library can be accessed via SQL server for access in a multiple station setup. Our software engineer can even integrate the Pin Gauge Classifier with your specific system.

Did you know… Cross Company is an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan). Our ESOP started in 1979 and as of 2006, we are 100% employee-owned! Learn more about our ESOP and how that benefits both team members and our customers.
Did you know... the precision measurement group at Cross was founded in 1939 by our current CEO's grandfather, Jim King. That's a whole lot of calibration!
Did you know... A fingerprint weighs about 50 micrograms. We know, we weighed it! The residue left from a finger can actually make a difference in weight results which is why we wear gloves when we calibrate weights. For reference, a sheet of paper is about 4.5 grams, that’s 4.5 million micrograms.
Did you know… Cross Company has grown significantly since our start in 1954. Over the years we've acquired 26 companies! Today, our five groups have expertise in everything from industrial automation to precision measurement, and industry knowledge going all the way back to 1939.
