INSPECTION SYSTEMS 39 PET planet insider Vol. 16 No. 06/15 Alongside the PVS003, Sacmi proposes the PVS024 inspection machine, specifically developed for the control and review of preform lots on which defects have been detected. This solution can automatically read the cavity number of each pre- form; this information, in addi- tion to being used to produce detailed statistical reports, lets operators select the numbers of those preform cavities to be eliminated with ease via a user-friendly interface. The machine can inspect preforms of various sizes at rates of up to 36.000pph. The PVS range features the latest version of the CVS3000 2.0 64bit software, which allows a simple and intuitive man- machine interaction. One of the advantages of the CVS3000 is the standardisation and compatibility with all automated inspection systems produced by Sacmi, including the CHS (clo- sures handling system). Since 2013 Sacmi completely rede- signed to raise inspection rates to new, high-speed levels. Sacmi has, over recent months, developed a potentially innovation for in-lab quality con- trol not only of the cap or the container, but also the entire cap-bottle system. That solution is called Cube Eye. It executes complete X-ray tomography analysis of plastic or aluminium caps and the bottle, highlight- ing all the sealing characteris- tics quickly in a non-destructive manner. The far-reaching network of sales and assistance centres of Sacmi covering five continents and provides close support for customers by local technical assistance services. www.sacmi.it The Cube Eye
