Inspection method Artificial computer vision algorithms, spark tester Mechanical and destructive breaking force test Non contact inspection Inspected objects Flat top caps, tethered caps, sport caps, hinge caps, multicomponents caps Flat top caps and tethered caps All types and shapes Inspected parameters: -Inner inspection Inspection of the whole product side, including mouth, plug seal (one piece caps), gasket (two pieces caps). Dedicated algorithms for a precise thread inspection. Detection of small flashes and voids in Tamper Evident Band wings. Detection of colour variations, discolourations, contaminations, black specks, pulled threads, voids, flashes of material. Inspection of standard or tethered cut produced in the mould: flashes in the windows, windows partially closed, bridges, number of bridges, thickness of the bridges. 100% inspection - guaranteed Available -Outer inspection Complete inspection of the public side, including sidewall. Special CVS360- 3D module to unroll the sidewall in a 2D image making a compensation of any deformation coming from lens deformation, perspective and spatial posi- tion of the object. Inspection of the decoration with automatic recognition of colours and areas with a specific colour. Colour variation ( Δ E), wrong colour, colour planes registration, off-centre, stains, black specks and many others. Available -Geometry From a top view: Ovalisation, indicative measurement on inner and outer diameter; from side views: outer diameters measured long the cap body, bulged caps, cap height. Available -Cavity number reading Yes, through artificial intelligence algorithms for the highest reliability and performance. Statistics of defects by cavity number, sorting by cavity number. Yes, through CVScut vision system Available -Microhole inspection Yes, with dedicated and integrated spark tester device Available -Additional inspection criteria for inserts Yes, (presence/absence, integrity, black specks, voids, flashes, contamina- tions…) Available - depending on your requirements Further inspection options Side inspection Breaking force test Specific tethered closures inspection & slit inspection (after slitting machine), print inspection Colour Camera: CHS features up to 7/12 high resolution and high speed colour cameras to control the whole cap Yes Installation: · Stand-alone (offline) Yes CHS 102, no CHS 202 Yes Available · Inline CHS family includes two machines: CHS102 (single vacuum conveyor belt) and CHS202 (double vacuum conveyor belt). Both machines are very compact and have been designed to match the highest production speeds required by the market (up to 4500ppm). PFMC takes samples of plastic caps and performs destructive tests: breaking forces of the bridges and of the lugs that keep the cap tethered to the bottle. The machine records the detected values and provides a set of statistics. It also produces chart showing force as a function of time, and can export that data via Ethernet or USB. Available Softwarefeatures: Graphical HMI translated in more than 20 languages, artificial intelligence algorithms, colour analysis, special tools dedicated to a precise thread inspection, runs under Windows 10 IoT.
