Full container check for fill level and closure inspection
In food and beverage production, ensuring the correct fill level and secure closure of containers is crucial. Defective containers can lead to product recalls and tarnish a brand’s reputation. Accurate inspection methods are needed to detect faults early and consistently reject defective products.
Inspects fill levels, closures, and labels accurately
The HEUFT PRIME is a compact full container check system that utilizes various detection technologies for precise inspection of food and beverage containers. Fill levels are checked using infrared and high-frequency measurement for transparent and non-metal containers, while X-ray technology is employed for opaque packaging. Closure integrity is monitored through advanced sensor and optical technologies that detect missing, misaligned, or leaking closures. Label presence is verified using sensors that detect reflective differences between container surfaces and labels. Its automation capabilities ensure consistent product quality with minimal human intervention. Developed by HEUFT, the system includes self-explanatory audiovisual user guidance (HEUFT NaVi), enabling easy operation without extensive training. It handles up to 1,200 containers per minute and features an efficient fault rejection system.
