Production Line Inspection Equipment

Production Line Inspection Equipment checking every step of the way. From formulation to packing and dispatch. Normally used after filling, the products will go through a number of checks to guarantee delivery of perfect goods every time.

Production Line Inspection Equipment – Checkweighers

Initially after filling, the products will pass through a dynamic checkweigher, this will automatically detect and reject over filled or under filled packages. Too many over fills can greatly effect profit margins, too many under fills and you risk falling fowl to retail fines.

Production Line Inspection Equipment – Metal Detectors

A metal inspection system is common place on food production lines. Identifying any product that has been exposed to the elements and any metal contaminated products rejected. However due to some complex packaging and extremely high standards set by the UK retail food industry,  X-Ray Food inspection systems are now the preferred inspection system at this point in the production line.

Production Line Inspection Equipment – X-Ray

X-Ray food inspection normally comes after the checkweigher and will check items that fail between set criteria. These systems will not miss anything, set to your personal requirements it will detect all foreign objects within a package, Metal, plastic, rubber it will even check that the density and consistency of the product conforms to the set criteria.

The final check at the end of the production line. A new product in the Bizerba portfolio are the vision inspection machines. Thermo inspection system not only check seal edges and the integrity of the seal. It can identify broken seals and reject any packages that may have been compromised.

Furthermore an additional feature of the SealSecure vision inspection system is that it will as follows.  Identify any products with incorrect labels, Incorrect sell by dates and bar codes. It will even reject damaged or inferior labels from passing into the packing area.

Also at the end of the line you may also want to look at setting up a platform scale. This will enable you to pack without having to count. When the exact weight for a set amount of product is reached, the load cell will indicate to the line. Enabling a seamless operation for filling to packing. Alternatively consider the Bizerba LabelSecure inspection system.

Checkweighing

Checkweighing or checkweigher is a manual or automatic machine for checking weight of packaged and unpack-aged goods. Predominantly used within the food industry. Checkweighing consists of a system that incorporates belts and weighing terminals for high speed production lines. Also known as in motion scales.

Checkweighing – Alternative Names

Also known in different locations around the world by many different names to include, dynamic checkweighers, in motion scales, belt weighers, check scales, high speed precision scales, conveyor scales or dynamic scales.

Checkweighing – Typical Set Up

Checkweigher systems have a set of belts, we use quick release belts that require minimal production down time.  As the packages pass over the load cell the system will record the package weight. If the package is within the set tolerances. The package will pass through to the next stage which would normally involve an inspection system.

Alternatively packages will be rejected if they are outside the set tolerance for the items being weighed. Any over weight or under weight packages will be rejected with pushers or we can incorporate a pneumatic option to reject the goods.

Checkweighing with Inspection

Furthermore due to the very high industry standards within the food sector. More often a requirement is to have at least one inspection system. One of the most popular solutions for production the integrated x-ray food systems. Not only checking for metallic objects but can detect, rubber, plastics, bone and even the product density.

Also metal detectors are still very popular, checking for ferrous and non ferrous metals. Each inspection system will again reject any goods that fail the checks whilst passing along the belt lines.

In addition to the internal inspection there is now a growing need for vision inspection. Checking the package integrity from above and below. Checking seam and seal and ensuring that every package is perfect before it leaves the line. A photographic archive created for each and every item leaving the line.

Also the vision inspection systems check the correct packaging is used. The correct labels with the correct print layout. Bar codes,  sell by dates recorded and monitored. Any package that fails again rejected with pushers.

Checkweighing machines easily adapted for any type of production environment. Each system easily tailored to the customers particular requirements.
