FLEXIBLE MEASURING SYSTEM FOR GLASS CONTAINERS INSPECTION

VisiQuick™a totally flexible machine, suitable for accurate dimensional and geometric inspection, on sample basis, of a large variety of glass containers having different size, shape and colour.

It can be installed in the laboratory or close to the manufacturing line, at the cold end.

VisiQuick™ machine includes one or more measuring stations:

External dimensions measuring station

including one or two high resolution cameras, with telecentric lens and collimated illuminator, to measure the external characteristics of the container, such as:

• Total height
• Verticality
• Bent neck
• Mouth parallelism
• Body parameters (e.g. diameter, long/short sides and diagonal on non-round containers, height of a given diameter, etc…)
• Finish parameters on any finish type (e.g. diameters, heights, angles, radiuses, etc...)

Inside diameter and profile measuring station

including a rotating/translating bore gauge to dynamically measure the mouth inside diameter and profile

Weight and push-up measuring station

including an industrial scale and an ultrasonic sensor integrated in the same station

Wall thickness measuring station

based on chromatic confocal technology

Labelling area profile measuring station (patent application filed)

based on optical technology, it allows to detect and measure sinks and bulges in the container’s labelling area.
