Visual Inspection System Application In Food Package Label Safety Control

System Advantages

Inspection Principle

Label defect detection equipment is mainly for the detection of various labels on product packaging, including QR code, bar code, production date, batch number, etc. The label on the packaging is one of the important information of the product, and many consumers use this as a basis Go to buy products and choose products according to the content of the label. If the label is really blurred, it may affect the sales and quality inspection standards of the product.

KEYE TECH provides an efficient inspection process that reduces the risk of costly product recalls and damage to brand reputation. The system utilizes six vision sensors to generate images of the complete label surface with minimal distortion to confirm alphanumeric label information and the appearance, integrity and readability of printed 1D and 2D codes.

Take control of packaging quality
Increasing the machine vision inspection program brings many advantages to the production process, especially when it comes to efficiency. Visual inspection's ability to inspect each product at close range means manufacturers can have more peace of mind knowing that any product will leave their factory in top condition. This enhances brand protection, helps minimize rework, mitigates the risk of certain product recalls, reduces product waste, and improves overall process efficiency.

Minimize rework
During the course of the day, multiple products are often seen on the production line, and it is very error-prone to perform product switchovers. The sooner these errors are caught, the better: Machine vision inspection systems can quickly identify incorrect labels and alert operators to the error. As a result, product rework due to label errors can be reduced, freeing up more operator effort.

Reduce recalls
While product recalls are sometimes unavoidable, all manufacturers are most interested in how to mitigate product recall risks. Mislabeling is one of the major causes of product recalls, and installing a vision inspection solution can actually eliminate the chance of mislabeled products entering the distribution network. By identifying and rejecting non-compliant packaging in production facilities, the labor and cost required to correct errors can be significantly reduced.

Reduce waste
When it comes to catching errors, timing is everything – testing valuable products before they are put into packaging helps ensure that the correct packaging is being used. Vision inspection systems can verify that the correct packaging is used prior to filling, keeping the potential for wasted product low. If the label is applied after filling, its contents can be verified before application - further reducing the potential for wasted product.

Improve efficiency
Monitoring product quality is an important aspect of the production process. By tracking trends such as defect types, manufacturers can better plan maintenance of production equipment. Vision inspection equipment can also share valuable data with other production equipment on the production line, and even make temporary adjustments to system settings to correct a smaller problem before it develops into a larger problem.

Protect your brand image
Product recalls and poor product image can damage the impression of your brand among consumers and distributors. Visual inspection can catch these simple labeling errors before they end up on warehouse or retailer shelves, protecting brand image from damage and helping maintain the reputation of a quality product.
