Cartridge Inspection Machine
Fully automated cartridge inspection machine at a speed of 40.000 per hour. The inspection machine can be equipped with inspection stations for detection of particulate matters, cosmetic defects and closure integrity issues.
The InnoScan inspection machines are designed with a minimum number of transitions for gentle line handling. Additionally, the machine design is optimized for easy access for daily maintenance and line clearance.
The InnoScan machines are manufactured, documented and validated according to cGAMP.

Infeed and Major Inspection
Infeed module with configurable capacity and fill level adapted pressure on the infeed wheel.
Pre-inspection at the infeed wheel to prevent major defects to enter the machine and possibly cause machine stop. -
Automatic re-circulation
Automatic re-circulation feature to retain specific cartridges in the inspection machine for effectively returning for a second inspection. This feature can be used for automatic re-inspection of ’grey', un-inspected, or certain defects according to predefined settings. Moreover, re-circulation feature is used during test and validation.

High-Voltage Leak Detection (HVLD)
Fully integrated HVLD body and cap leak inspection in carousel and clip belt. No additional line handling initiatives to facilitate HVLD. The leak detection is based on the high voltage - high frequency detection principle, optimized for high speed machines.
-
Particle Inspection
Two identical and correlated Particle inspection stations based on line-scan camera technology. Image acquisition is facilitated by image tracker to protect sensitive hardware against motion and vibration. The line-scan camera technology enables high detection rates while maintaining a low false rejection rate.
-
Side Inspection
The Side inspection station is based on line-scan camera technology and is intended for cosmetic inspection of the side wall, print inspection, plunger inspection and fill level measurement.
-
Top Cosmetics
Cosmetic inspection of the cap around the full 360° circumference including the top of the cap. The inspection station can be configured to inspect, amongst others, scratches, crimping and color of the cap.
-
Outfeed
Flexible outfeed module with six manual outlets. Integrated touch screens to give freely configurable outlets. All outlets are monitored by sensors for 100% reconciliation. Alternatively, a compact outfeed module gives smaller machine footprint while maintaining the full flexibility.
