Machine Vision Inspection System

MVIS Product Overview

Perceptics understands that succeeding in the marketplace presents tough challenges for all manufacturing companies, no matter what they produce. Constant demands are made to maximize production, maintain product quality, and reduce costs.

The Perceptics Machine Vision Inspection Systems can meet the most rigorous objectives for production line inspection systems. By providing reliable, robust and fully integrated turnkey solutions for automated inspection systems, our systems solve otherwise "unsolvable" problems that off-the-shelf systems either avoid or miss.

Our Machine Vision Inspection Systems:

  • SealSafe Product on Flange (POF)
  • SealSafe Pouch Seal Inspection (PSI)
  • Transparent and Translucent Object Imaging Technology

System Benefits:

  • 100% on-line package seal or product integrity inspection
  • Real-time intelligent character recognition
  • Built-in reject diagnostics
  • Increased production line speeds
  • Reduced manpower requirements

Applications

Machine Vision Inspection Systems manufacturing solutions can be used for:

  • Food Manufacturing
  • Cosmetic Manufacturing
  • Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
  • Transparent Lens Manufacturing

SealSafe POS

The SealSafe™ Systems from Perceptics catch sealing problems at the source. Both the SealSafe Product On Flange (POF) System and the Pouch Seal Inspection (PSI) System automatically flag defective production for line rejection. Both systems are rugged, cost effective, accurate and user or custom configurable, and both inspect 100% of production on-line at full production rate.

SealSafe POF System Benefits:

  • Inspects 100% of production
  • Cuts operating costs
  • Reduces time from packing to market
  • Reduces waste
  • Maximizes productivity

The Product On Flange System detects contaminants on the flange between filling and sealing. Within 100 milliseconds, the POF System determines whether the seal will fail due to contamination of the container flange. This processing speed enables the POF System to help eliminate incubation by specifically detecting potential problems at the point in the product line where most failures to seal are caused. Seamless integration into the plant floor/HMI system and availability as a blind embedded system or with an optional touch-screen user interface make the POF System a necessity for packagers and manufacturers concerned about fill/seal equipment performance and product/seal integrity.

Transparent & Translucent

Machine Vision Inspection System
Our patented Transition Zone Illumination enables our inspection system to detect flaws in transparent and translucent objects such as glass, optical lenses, corrective lenses and plastic components. Defects on these items are usually missed by classical methods, such as bright or dark field illumination.

Bright Field Illumination
The lens in this image represents almost any light-transmitting item illuminated with incident light, also referred to as bright field (bf) illumination. Notice that some large defects clearly show up as dark objects against a light background.

Dark Field Illumination
This image is the same lens seen through indirect illumination, also known as dark field (df) illumination. With df illumination the defects appear as bright spots against a dark background, yielding results similar to the first method.

Transition Zone
The Transition Zone image is of the same lens illuminated by our Illumination method. Bright field and dark field illumination are both classical techniques, but Transition Zone Illumination reveals significant flaws that these other methods miss.

The SealSafe™ Pouch Seal Inspection (PSI) System captures and analyzes an x-ray like image of the pouch seals on vertical form-fill-seal or horizontal form-fill-seal machinery for compliance with the NFPA-recommended defect set. The PSI System analyzes both transparent and translucent seals and generates results within 100 milliseconds, automatically flagging defective production for line rejection. It is a rugged, cost-effective system that is available as a blind embedded system or with an optional touch screen user interface.
