Fill level inspection confirms that every container is filled to the right height before it is capped, labelled or packed. We do it with a camera and a light at the conveyor rather than a sensor on the filler, so the same station can also check that the cap is present and seated. The method depends on the container: clear, amber and translucent bottles can be inspected through the wall, while a camera cannot see the liquid in an opaque one, and we tell you that at feasibility rather than quote a system that cannot work.
Capabilities
How we deliver it
Feasibility on your bottles
Send good, under-filled and over-filled samples. We image them under the lighting we intend to use and show you the separation before quoting.
Lighting chosen for the container
Backlighting through the bottle suits clear and translucent containers. Foam, the meniscus, bottle colour and label position all move where the fill line appears, so they are settled on your samples, not assumed.
Trigger and reject timing
Each container triggers the camera, and the reject is timed to the conveyor so the bottle that failed is the one that leaves the line.
Records for QA
Results and images of rejected containers are kept, so quality staff can see why a bottle was rejected and whether the filler is drifting.
