 Part inspection on a conveyor

 Metal stamped parts coming out of a press and traveling on a conveyor must be inspected for correct form and proper number of holes.  The parts are not fixture for repeatable positioning, and are approximately 5" by 2" and have a number of critical punched holes that distinguish Parts on a Conveyorone part from another. This inspection is to make sure that the part has the correct number of holes in the correct location on the part.
