Vision Partners provided a customer-specific machine vison inspection system that can measure the heat profile of the thermal seal of the reservoir. It is very important to the customer that there is assurance that no tray is leaking. The thermal image inspection system must be able to pick out any flaw. So reliability is very important.
The seal inspection checks various aspects of the thermal sealing process:
- Detecting when the seal is not fully contiguous
- Detecting shifted film
- Detecting when no film is present
- It compares the average temperature of the seal with the reference
- It inspects local anomalies on the seal, both too cold and too hot
The sealing solution consists of a high-resolution thermal camera placed inside the sealing machine.
Thermal image capture is triggered after which the Machine Vision software uses various algorithms to evaluate the thermal image of the reservoir film. It then communicates with the release mechanism so that the correct package, - after thermal rejection - is removed.
Thanks to this thermal seal inspection, consistent quality is delivered to the customer where the risk of a leaking reservoir is minimized.
