100% Passage-by-Passage Leak Testing for Pneumatic Rotary Unions

After final assembly, every finished Begapunk pneumatic rotary union is checked passage by passage with compressed air before packing and storage.

100% of finished units
Every passage tested individually
1.0 MPa · approx. 5 seconds
Integrated rotation · PASS/NG

Five-step production inspection

Every finished unit follows the same inspection and nonconformance process before release.

Final assembly and inspection queue

Finished units enter the final production inspection queue.

Test every passage individually

One passage is tested at 1.0 MPa while all remaining passages stay unpressurized and open.

Build pressure, rotate and hold

The equipment pressurizes for approximately 1 second, rotates the joint and holds pressure for approximately 4 seconds. Smooth movement, binding and abnormal noise are also checked.

Release only after PASS

A unit may proceed to packing and storage only after the instrument displays PASS for every passage.

Segregate every nonconforming unit

Move the unit to the yellow quarantine container, diagnose it, repair and completely retest it when possible, or scrap it.

Nonconforming-unit segregation and disposition

Any nonconforming unit is placed in the yellow quarantine container for investigation by designated personnel. Repairable units are repaired and must repeat the complete passage-by-passage test. Units that cannot be repaired are scrapped. Packing and storage are allowed only after every passage has passed.
