Leak detection for kegs
Ensure total keg integrity by detecting leaks and micro-leaks with unparalleled accuracy, using a non-contact, laser-based solution that guarantees product quality and reduces wastage in high-speed beverage production lines.

Detects Leaks and Micro Leaks in Containers
The LDK 700 IoT from Antares Vision Group is a state-of-the-art inline leak detection system designed to ensure the integrity of kegs and other beverage containers. Utilizing laser spectroscopy, this non-destructive testing device accurately detects CO2 escaping from leaks or micro-leaks, regardless of container type, such as PET or metal. Ideal for beverage manufacturers and breweries, it inspects 100% of production at full line speed. The system can be integrated into existing production lines or function as a standalone unit, offering a user-friendly interface for ease of operation. By preventing leaks, it guarantees product safety and quality, reducing the risk of market claims. Additionally, it offers expandable features for visual inspection of valve integrity, ensuring comprehensive package conformity. Furthermore, the LDK 700 IoT supports data storage for thorough production records, aiding in quality control and traceability.
