Product supporting evidence

 

Guide rail appearance inspection

The surface and inner hole of the guide rail are required to be clean, the surface is not scratched, the twill is evenly bumped, the hole and surface of the guide rail are rusted, check whether the hole is opened, whether the hole is damaged, whether the inner hole is damaged, whether the chamfer of the bottom face is qualified, and whether there are any burrs. Note: scratches, black skin, rusty, are unqualified products.
