From 1983—Volume Production of High-Precision Cathode Ray Tubes at Tektronix

Note how components of tubes that fail quality tests at various stages in the manufacturing process are reclaimed, repaired, and fed back into the line rather than ending up in a landfill. These tubes were used in Tektronix model 465, 475. and the 2300 and 2400 series oscilloscopes.
