The solenoid valve

The solenoid valve has machined surfaces, openings and small assembly elements. Inspection must assess their material, cleanliness and geometric features.

The checks

Imago searches for porosity and swarf in the specified component areas. It checks edges and holes, including their position, and pin presence in the respective seats. Inspection also covers the required part orientation.
