Fill level inspection

Filling lines are used extensively in all industries, such as food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cosmetics, to accurately package different products into a container suitable for that product. Although the filling process is at the very end of the production line, it is no less important than the earlier steps. Last but not least, the idiom that dates back to 1382 when John Wyclif wrote the firste the laste, and the laste the firste, indicates just that the last things on a list are just as valuable as the previous ones. In this case, this idiom fits perfectly.

Industrial inspection equipment is used for checking compliance with health, safety, and quality control standards. For that reason, inspection systems are most commonly utilized in the food and pharmaceutical industry but, they are also used in other industries too. Inspection solutions are often integrated into a production process or production line. Visual inspection systems perform checks to detect variation in size, shape, and color and ensure the presence of labels and closures. Check-weigh systems help ensure that product packages are not under or over-filled. Metal detection systems can help guard against the presence of foreign objects in product containers and X-ray inspection equipment is used to detect physical defects and to ensure high quality package seal integrity.

Although not all women use makeup every day, almost all of them own at least one makeup product, be it lipstick or face powder. Most makeup products share the same basic ingredients of waxes, oils, and fillers with pigments like iron oxide used for colors and shades. Makeup manufacturing equipment includes pulverizers, mixers, and mechanical press machines to produce cosmetic products in different forms such as powder, liquid, or mousse.

Edible oils are fats that you can extract from various plants and animal tissues. The most popular sources are olives and sunflowers. You can use them for different cooking techniques, such as frying, baking, and other methods. Manufacturers are now finding ways to extract oils with a higher natural fat content efficiently using edible oil extraction machines.

Edible Oil

A beverage is any kind of liquid or drink, usually other than water, made for human consumption. Beverages are further classified into two categories: alcoholic beverages and non-alcoholic beverages. Alcoholic beverages refer to liquids that contain 1% to 75% of liquor and are produced by fermentation such as wine, beer, or distillation such as vodka, rum, tequila. Non-alcoholic beverages are drinks that don’t have any liquor such as tea, coffee, fruit juices, soft drinks, and carbonated beverages. They can be produced premix or postmix, depending on the setup of your production line.

Cannabinoids are natural compounds obtained from the Cannabis sativa plant. Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol or THC is a psychotropic substance. Cannabidiol, or CBD, is non-psychotropic and often used for nutraceutical purposes. Cannabinoid equipment extracts THC and CBD from the plant and prepares the substance for formulations that treat pain, nausea, anxiety, and inflammations. Cannabinoids are processed in various forms, including creams, capsules, and oils.

<p class="filterable-grid__description">Liquid dosage forms are designed for easy absorption. The body quickly carries the active ingredients through the system and triggers the required response. But the greatest advantage of this medicinal type is its flexibility in formulation and dispensation. From lotions and syrups to drops and sprays, liquid solutions can be adapted to different administration routes including parenteral, topical, and oral. The fundamental liquid dosage manufacturing process involves dissolving or suspending solutes in a fluid. But that is not enough. A precise blend of excipients is needed to make the medicine go down.</p>

Liquid dosage forms

Fill level inspection ensures that each container is filled with exactly the desired volume of the product during a liquid filling operation. While transparent containers can utilize optical sensors for level detection, difficult to see through containers, such as cans or cartons lined with aluminum, must be scanned using X-rays. When choosing fill level inspection equipment, the size, shape, and opacity of the container must be considered. The production speed, the desired accuracy, and the amount of foaming on the liquid surface are also important parameters to consider. Fill level inspection systems are used to comply with quality control standards.

Dosing systems are a line of hoppers, feeders, filling machines, and checkweighers that operate in sync to dispense materials accurately. Dosing is an essential feature of the packaging process, whether you’re filling shampoo bottles or tea bags. But dosing equipment is critical for formulations, too, particularly in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Imprecise dosing may cause quality degradation in the best-case scenario. In the worst scenario, it creates serious health risks.

Dosing

Industrial measurement equipment is used as a crucial step before products leave the production line. These measuring instruments check for correct dosage and standards. Equipment for measurement and control employs a wide range of technologies to detect inconsistencies in volumes, sizes, weights, and fill levels as well as to inspect goods for quality against a set of criteria. Specialized measuring tools allow you to minimize the probability for error to its lowest possible, ensuring that both products and packaging meet your benchmarks.

Measurement &amp; Control

For containers that are difficult to see through, such as cans or cartons lined with aluminium, an X-ray inspection can be a good solution when looking for fill level control.


<h2>Fill level inspection for cans, cartons lined with aluminium and foiled containers and bottles</h2>
The Newton X2p from Miho is an X-ray fill level inspection unit that inspects cans, cartons lined with aluminium and foiled containers and bottles. The X-ray fill level controller distinguishes itself by requiring less than a tenth of the average amount usually used during the radioactive inspection for its measurement process.

Its core piece is an X-ray generator, which in contrast to traditional X-ray fill level inspection units only generates X-rays for a short moment during the measurement. The total radiation intensity is, therefore, only a fraction of what is the case with traditional X-ray fill level inspection units. The exact value depends upon the number of containers inspected.

The Newton HF from Miho greatly improves the HF measurement process. Without carrying out any special precautionary measures, the HF technology is very sensitive towards changes in temperature that lead to measuring drifts and eventually to changes in the fill levels measured. Miho Newton HF resolves these problems because it is a machine that permanently controls and calibrates itself.

Miho Newton High-frequency fill level controller represents a level of accuracy and reliability that has not been known up until now thanks to the HF fill level control. With this machine the HF inspection process has certainly reached new heights.

Visual and HVLD inspection for ampoules, vials and cartridges

For brand protection and to prevent legal disputes due to distribution of non-compliant products when it comes to fill level for beverages, an inspection machine allows to detect the final fill level in a container even in the presence of foam. With the rise of digital world and increased consumer awareness about standards that a product must have when it arrives on the market, even in the beverage industry the brand image is just a click away.


<h2>Inspection system for detecting fill level with high frequency technology</h2>
CL700-HF is a machine produced by FTsystem, that allows to detect the fill level of glass or plastic containers using high frequency technology. Water, soft drinks, juices, tea, beer, wines, spirits, milk and other conductive products are some of the products that CL700-HF can analyse, but according to the characteristics of product and container, x-ray (RX) and infrared (IR) technologies can be used as well. As the container passes through the sensor, the emitter generates a high frequency signal that the receiver detects. The signal goes through the liquid and the latter modifies the frequency of the signal. This frequency variation allows for the measurement of the filling level. Compared to x-ray technology, an advantage of high frequency is that it can detect the quantity of foam, measuring therefore the true filling level (after foam dissolving), it will not generate a false reject. The system measures the liquid level and the quantity of foam separately and after processing these two measures, the real filling level will be determined.
