Inspection of jars and bottles is an essential part of any reliable bottle filling operation. Beverage bottles need to be inspected for foreign objects, contaminants, or any residual liquid before filling. After filling, the bottles need to be checked again to ensure the desired fill level, no leaks or potential label problems. Bottles generally travel along conveyors that feed them into the system whereby non-contact optical inspection takes place. This process is usually automated and uses technology to scan the bottles for any potential issues. Considerations for selecting bottle inspection equipment include the size, shape, and material of the bottles, production speed, and the relevant inspection parameters. Bottle inspection equipment is widely used in the food industry to ensure compliance with quality control procedures as well verification.

Industrial separation equipment encapsulates the separation process which is to separate components of a liquid mixture, for recovering dissolved solids from liquids. The choice of a suitable technology depends on the identification of the key physical or chemical property, such as size, mass, density, or boiling point, which sets the product of interest apart from the rest of the components. Separation technology is widely used in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries for the isolation of active ingredients and high-purity chemicals. As well as in waste management and recycling industries.

Separation

To ensure product quality and freshness in the drink industry, capping is a very important step. Sometimes during the capping phase, products are rejected due to defective caps causing delay in the production line. To avoid jams along the line, it’s helpful to inspect bottle caps with a machine before they enter the capping process and not when they are being capped.


<h2>Artificial vision system to inspect cap quality before capping phase</h2>
