Abstract: An Inspection apparatus (9) for inspecting cylindrical metal formed parts comprises a guide (11) for guiding the metal formed parts to be inspected through the inspection apparatus (9). The inspection apparatus (9) further comprises a radiation device which is adapted to emit radiation in the direction of the guided metal formed parts, so that the radiation impinges on each of the metal formed parts and is at least partially reflected therefrom as reflection radiation. A sensor device of the inspection apparatus is adapted to receive the reflection radiation and convert it into image data. An evaluation device is designed to assess, based on an evaluation of the image data, whether the respective metal formed part has production-related defects.
