Exhaust & Emissions

Extruders and Substrate Manufacturers

The shape characteristics of your products are extremely important. The CATPRO Laser Measurement Center technology offers key capabilities for you. Chip and gouge detection, as well as crack detection are also important. DPF manufacturers require optical leak checks. UT or ultrasonic internal defect detection is becoming increasingly critical. CATPRO tools are well suited to these applications, providing industry standard quality control capabilities, at high production rates, with no operator intervention required.

Coaters

The primary concern for coaters is to verify that your newly coated substrates are not plugged, particularly on flow-through products. Chip and gouge detection is also critical. CATPRO equipment the world standard for coating applications and is installed in some of the largest substrate coating plants in the world. Learn more about CATPRO>>

Canners

Canners have a significant interest in validating the shape characteristics of substrates prior to canning. Checking for damage is also critical. In addition, validation of the can assembly and welds using ultrasound and X-ray is of increasing importance to save on costly destructive testing.

OEMs

OEMs are concerned with the quality of manufacture through the entire process. A high quality production regimen will involve automated checks at critical points throughout the supply chain. OEMs that contract with suppliers using CATPRO equipment can be assured that the product coming from those producers is defect-free. Learn more about CATPRO>>

Composite materials

Components made of all types of composite materials can be tested and inspected for highly accurate tolerances and integrity. 100% inspection in the automotive and aerospace component manufacturing worlds is mission critical. Traditional CMM approaches are slow and cumbersome and do not allow for multiple simultaneous inspections. Automated VT, LT and UT in combination, or separately, brings speed, accuracy and often new revenue streams to the manufacturers of automotive and aerospace components.

Energy

The accelerating pace and exponential growth of new energy alternatives is driving the need for high-speed, extremely accurate forms of test and measurement. New innovation in energy products requires new innovation in the inspection technologies required to keep pace with demanding specifications and production timelines. New Gate Technologies offers both inspection center solutions for component manufacturers and NDT services.
