MQWR 160U inline wheel inspection system with infeed and outfeed roller conveyors

MQWR 160U Inline Wheel Inspection System

Inline X-ray Inspection. Real-Time Defect Detection.

MQWR 160U is India's first indigenously developed inline X-ray inspection system designed specifically for 2-wheeler and 4-wheeler alloy wheels.

India's first indigenous inline system10″ – 26″ wheelsADR · ASTM E2422-22AERB Type Approved

Built for high-volume production environments, it inspects wheels from 10” to 26” using a fully automated workflow, a customized wheel-holding + alignment mechanism, and integrated ADR (Automatic Defect Recognition) software compliant with ASTM E2422-22. The system is AERB Type Approved, enabling fast, safe, and consistent quality control directly on the manufacturing line.
