Inspection and quality assurance
END-OF-LINE PACKAGING
In automated packaging lines, inspection and quality assurance play a key role in labeling, sealing and packaging verification processes. Typical inspection tasks include seal verification, package completeness checks and the detection of defects that cannot be reliably identified using conventional sensors.
Vision‑based inspection enables automated quality checks of visible features such as seals, caps, labels and printed information directly on the packaging line. Radar‑based inspection complements this by detecting hidden defects or missing contents inside closed or opaque packages. By combining these technologies, packaging machines achieve comprehensive quality control, ensuring compliance, traceability and reduced scrap.
Key benefits
-
Reliable visual inspection with vision sensors
Vision‑based systems enable automated inspection of seals, caps, labels and surface features, supporting consistent quality assurance at production speed. -
Inspection beyond visible surfaces with radar technology
Radar imaging detects missing products, incomplete packages and hidden defects inside closed or opaque packaging where optical systems reach their limits. -
Non‑destructive, in‑line quality control
Both vision and radar technologies operate contact‑free and at full line speed, enabling 100% inspection without interrupting the packaging process. -
Reduced waste and fewer customer complaints
Early detection of defects prevents faulty packages from moving downstream, reducing scrap, rework and the risk of recalls. -
Scalable quality assurance concept
The combination of vision sensors for standard inspection tasks and radar imaging for advanced defect detection allows quality control to be scaled according to application risk and packaging requirements.
