Description case

In recent years, Vision Partners has installed several customer-specific machine vision inspection systems in the label packaging lines which ensure that no mixed label shipments go to the customer. Each label bundle is 100% checked to ensure it matches the customer order before a shipping sticker is placed on it. 

Label or tag classification

This is a customer-specific, turn-key delivery where Vision Partners developed, installed and released the complete label inspection flow. The inspection system consists of the following components: 

  • Work preparation where modeling of PDFs from production orders takes place 
  • Matching the camera images with the modeled PDFs during production 
  • Interactions with parent databases, emitters and label printers 

The first step is work preparation where the Vision Partners system creates image matching models from the various PDFs within a production order. These image matching models are validated for robustness and then stored.

During production, image matching models are loaded from the production order and a high-resolution camera takes reflection-free images of the label bundles. Only if the camera images match models is a customer-specific shipping sticker placed on the bundle. Vision Partners designed, built and installed the complete hardware inspection units in the various packaging lines.

"The most important thing is that the company has good service, has a customer-specific product and that this product always works."
