Abstract
An apparatus for automatically inspecting powdery products is disclosed having a plurality of automatic inspection devices each device processing, in parallel, a subdivision of a supplied sample of a powdery product. Each device is controlled by a corresponding terminal computer. To one terminal computer there are connected a device for reading sample information attached to the supplied powdery sample and a device for recording, on the sample subdivisions, information concerning conditions for inspection established by the terminal computer on the basis of the sample information read by the first reading device. To each of the other terminal computers there is connected a corresponding device for reading the information concerning conditions for inspection recorded on the subdivision of the sample. Each terminal computer controls the operation of the automatic inspection devices on the basis of the information concerning conditions for inspection read by each corresponding reading device.
