Product Name: Crates Checker and Bottle Counter
Partner: Modular Vision Systems MVS, C.A.

In Venezuela, products such as beer are packaged in glass bottles that are shipped to consumers in plastic crates. After consumption, consumers return the bottles to the store where they are shipped back to the brewery for washing, refilling, and repackaging. Before bottles can be refilled and repackaged, each crate must be checked to ensure that the correct number and types of bottles are present. The loss of bottles, and the overestimation of needed bottles, cause inefficient inventory management which results in increased cost. With the Crates Checker and Bottle Counter, that problem is solved and plant managers can track the losses generated by missing bottles. With the implementation of this system, you can accurately count the number of bottles in the crate, determine empty holes where bottles are absent, and account for any foreign objects that may have been returned in the crate. If you have multiple lines, you can manage them remotely using Ethernet protocol communications. The control application is versatile and easy to use.

Product Name: Fill Level and Cap Inspector
Partner: Modular Vision Systems MVS, C.A.

The Fill Bottle Inspector measures the fill level and the presence or absence of the cap for medicine bottles to ensure that the bottle is properly filled and that the cap is present and in the right position. The application can measure both transparent and non-transparent liquids and has easy-to-set tolerance levels. This permits configuration for all bottle sizes within the visible range of the camera. Every two minutes a log file is saved that contains statistics about the production lot. Every bottle that does not match with at least one of the specifications is rejected from the conveyor. The inspection results are displayed in graphic and numeric formats. The inspector has a single Human Machine Interface and fulfills FDA regulations.

Product Name: Foreign Bottle Inspector
Partner: Modular Vision Systems MVS, C.A.

In Venezuela, products such as beer are packaged in glass bottles. After the contents are consumed, the bottles are returned to the brewery where they are washed, filled, and repacked. When the product packages are reused, they commonly contain products from several manufacturers. The foreign bottle inspector is able to inspect one-hundred percent of the total production and reject all the bottles that do not correspond to the product that is being filled. The inspector even rejects the manufacturer's bottles if the product does not match what is being filled. It shows the inspection results in graphic and numeric formats, has a single Human Machine Interface, and conforms to industrial food norms.
