Good question! The fifth part of our X-ray series explains how the pulsed radiometric measurement available exclusively from HEUFT makes the in-line inspection of empty bottles all the more precise.
The HEUFT TeKnowledge Nord in Bremen at the end of last year focused on true complete solutions for correctly marked food packaging free of foreign objects.
Sorting, inspection, labelling, filling management: the largest brewery in Luxembourg has gradually increased the production quality and the capacity of its bottling plant over the last few years with equipment from HEUFT and at the same time prepared the entire plant for the successful redesign of its "Battin" and "Bofferding" brands.
The unconventionally served anniversary beer at the AusleitBar (rejecTable) was not the only crowd puller on the HEUFT stand. The guests there were also given plenty of food for thought regarding innovations for a sustainable in-line quality assurance. In particular the first labeller on a HEUFT SPECTRUM II level caused a sensation at the BrauBeviale 2018 in Nuremberg – and its hands-free voice control attracted a great deal of attention.
They have already accurately labelled and precisely inspected more than half a billion small bottles since they were commissioned a good three years ago – time to take stock of the performance of the HEUFT quality assurance systems along a modified filling line of the leading energy drink producer in Thailand.
From the crown cork with bullnose to the sparkling wine bottle with improperly wired agrafe, from the non-functional screw closure to the torn tamper evident seal on the lid of a jam jar, from the non-brand flip-off to the leaking crimp cap on the vial: the HEUFT FinalView II CAP takes the in-line identification of beverage, food and pharmaceutical containers with closure faults to a whole new level. Even the exact verification of the correct closure alignment is therefore no longer a problem.
