A machine vision system for automatically identifying and inspecting objects is disclosed, including composable vision-based recognition modules and a decision algorithm to perform the final determination on object type and quality. This vision system has been used to develop a Projectile Identification System and an Automated Tactical Ammunition Classification System. The technology can be used to create numerous other inspection and automated identification systems.

An ammunition inspection assembly that includes a cartridge tester having a main body portion with a bore extending axially therethrough, a bullet pusher, and a case pusher. The bore includes an inner surface, a front opening and a rear opening and is configured to receive a bullet cartridge therein.

The adjustable case preparation tool polymer body has a tungsten carbide blade or blades, an adjustment screw, and a lock nut to secure the adjustment. The adjustment screw bears on a pin, which slides in a tube, which is held by friction fit in the molded or 3D printed body. The screw attaches the tool to a handle, prep center, or rotor. Colors identify calibers, and a tool fits every cartridge in that caliber by interchanging lengths of pins and tubes. The tool can be used with interchangeable spindle sleeves in increments of diameter for a precise fit. The flash hole deburring tool will not enlarge or chamfer a flash hole, and the neck turner will not mar a case mouth. The embodiments work on a case held in a case holder, and cutting stops when the pin through the flash hole touches the solid face of the case holder.
