Abstract: An apparatus and method according to which a piece part is inspected and sorted. In several exemplary embodiments, the piece part is a post-tension concrete anchor. In an exemplary embodiment, the apparatus includes a reference component configured to engage the piece part by extending within an opening defined the piece part. The reference component extends within the opening by a first distance, the first distance being based on at least one dimension defined by the opening. A depth measurement device is configured to measure a second distance, which is a function of the first distance. A controller is configured to determine whether the second distance is within a predetermined range. If not, a bracket disengages the piece part from the reference component at a first location. If the second distance is within the predetermined range, the bracket disengages the piece part from the reference component at a second location.

Abstract: An apparatus according to which the apparatus includes a pair of connected arcuate members for clamping around a pipe, with each arcuate member including at least one protrusion. The arcuate members have a first material hardness and at least a portion of the at least one protrusion has a second material hardness that is greater than the first material hardness so that the portion penetratingly engages the pipe when the arcuate members are clamped around the pipe.
