The company also performs related services such as systems integration, support, programming, precision machining, repairs and dedicated manufacturing. The firm's line of vision products includes a linear belt machine and a rotary Rotary can refer to:

, shaft seals, precision o-rings and diaphragms. Materials tested include rubber, plastics, silicone silicone, polymer in which atoms of silicon and oxygen alternate in a chain; various organic radicals, such as the methyl group, CH3, are bound to the silicon atoms.  and others. The vision systems test for surface control, including non-fills, pores, holes, splits, foreign material, flow lines and damage to a seal or contact lip. The systems also test for geometric control, including point to point measurement, measurement of angles, OD and ID of circular shapes (need not be round), ovality, offset (mold mold, name for certain multicellular organisms of the various classes of the kingdom Fungi, characteristically having bodies composed of a cottony mycelium. The colors of molds are caused by the spores, which are borne on the mycelium.  offset) and flash. (GT Automation Group)
