Fill Level & Closure Inspection

Detecting underfilled bottles helps to achieve authorities and quality standards and rejecting of potential leaking and underfilled bottles. The detection of overfilled containers helps to save product and to prevent bottle burst events by rejecting them early from production.
Inspecting the application of caps is the most important inspection to guarantee perfect sealed bottles and to prevent expensive recalls as well as reputational damage due to leaking bottles or deteriorating products.
Collection and combination of data from filler / closer / labeller as well as inspection systems provides important data to optimize the production process, to schedule sampling and preventive maintenance and to manage rejections on container burst or high air (loss of CO² in the headspace by conveyor downtimes) issues.
