Filtec Pressure

The FILTEC Vision Pressure systems combine vision inspection technology with pressure sensing capabilities to detect and analyse various defects in containers. These systems are particularly useful in detecting issues that might not be visible to the naked eye but could affect the safety, quality, and integrity of the product.

Key Features and functions:

  1. Vision Inspection: The system uses high-resolution cameras and image processing software to inspect the physical appearance of containers. This includes checking for cracks, dents, improper sealing, and other visual defects.
  2. Pressure Sensing: The pressure aspect involves measuring the internal pressure of sealed containers. This is crucial for carbonated beverages, where proper pressure is essential to maintain product quality and safety.
  3. Combined Analysis: By integrating vision and pressure data, the system can provide a comprehensive analysis of each container, ensuring that it meets stringent quality standards.
  4. Non-Destructive Testing: One of the major advantages of FILTEC Vision Pressure systems is that they perform inspections without damaging the containers. This allows for continuous and efficient quality control in production lines.

How the Vision Pressure works:

  1. Container Handling: Containers move along a conveyor belt and pass through the FILTEC Vision Pressure system.
  2. Image Capture: High-speed cameras capture multiple images of each container from various angles.
  3. Image Processing: The captured images are processed using sophisticated algorithms to detect visual defects.
  4. Pressure Measurement: The system measures the internal pressure of each container, usually through non-contact methods such as acoustic or ultrasonic sensors.
  5. Data Integration and Analysis: The vision and pressure data are combined to analyse the overall integrity of the container. The system identifies any deviations from the set quality parameters.
  6. Reject Mechanism: Containers that fail to meet the quality standards are automatically removed from the production line.

It’s benefits include:

  • Improved Quality Control: Ensures that only containers meeting the highest standards reach consumers.
  • Reduced Waste: Non-destructive testing means defective containers can be identified without damaging good ones, reducing overall waste.
  • Increased Efficiency: Automated inspection speeds up the production process while maintaining accuracy.
  • Safety Assurance: Helps prevent safety issues related to improperly sealed or pressurised containers, which is crucial for consumer safety.

By integrating advanced vision and pressure sensing technologies, FILTEC Vision Pressure systems provide a robust solution for maintaining high quality and safety standards in the packaging and bottling industries.
