X-ray images are smartly de-noised with this so that even smaller splinters become visible during the pulsed glass-inglass inspection. Glass thickness variations are compensated for by the AI. During optical in-line inspection, it not only filters out harmless objects such as drops on the bottle, but even makes visible what is hidden behind them. And also realises, among other things, full coverage in top-down inspection of empty beverage cans, as well as a novel teach-in for immediate start-up of new brands in label inspection. Numerous intelligent QA technologies which are claimed to realise a higher detection accuracy with a lower false rejection rate – such as the Heuft Reflexx A.I. drop filter, the smart approach for the complete inspection of tethered closures or the innovative Multi Color Image Processing (MCIP) – will be demonstrated at special enlightenment stations on the Heuft stand. www.heuft.com Röders – hall 7A booth 301 Base technologies with a high potential for energy saving Reducing energy consumption is a huge topic for the beverage industry and mould manufacturer Röders has introduced a new base technology for reducing blowing pressure: The “low pressure” (LP) base is combining a unique design with extra venting to let the air exhaust easily. Due to the optimised material flow, less air will be required to blow out all areas of the base. Blowing bottles with less than 20 bars instead of 30 was feasible at several CSD bottlers in Europe and some were able to even reduce to 15 bars. All potential results are related to local conditions such as the preform, condition of the machine and moulds as well as the bottle shape itself, Röders said. With its 50 years of exper ience, Röders at tr ibutes i ts success to the use of modern technology, especially the highspeed cutting machines developed in-house. The company sees high flexibility, fast response times and consistent quality of all moulds produced as its core competencies. www.roeders.de
