BBULL VK-X
X-Ray Full Crate / Full Case Inspection to be installed
after the Packer on the Conveyor for Crates, Cartons, Trays and Six Packs
GENERAL INTRODUCTION
The last possible point to detect and reject incompletely packed, broken and badly filled
containers is between the packer and the palletizer.
With the new BBULL VK-X (full carton/full crate inspection) it is possible to detect
faulty
cartons or crates and remove them from the production process.
BBULL VK-X scans the cartons with an extremly compact X-ray tube.
This principle presents for many applications an essential advantage compared with
optical systems or scales.
The X-ray method allows an inspection of open or
closed cartons at very high conveyor
speeds.
When a faulty carton or crate is detected it can either be removed from the
production process or an acoustic or optical alarm can be activated.
The installation, operation and service of the system is simple.
The adjustment
of the parameters is realized for the most
part by the TEACH IN mode.
Self-diagnosis and malfunction display in plain text guarantee
high
reliability
and easy service.
Existing systems can be easily upgraded with BBULL VK-X.
MODE
OF OPERATION
The system consists
of a sensor bridge
with height adjust-
ment and the control
unit BBULL PC-400.
The sensor bridge is equipped with an X- ray source and a highly advanced detector.
While passing the sensor bridge the carton or crate is scanned by
harmless
X-rays.
The evaluation of the sensor signals is performed by the control unit that can either energise a rejection unit or activate a signal (optical-/acoustical).
