Visual Inspection
Camera based visual inspection detects moving particles like glass,
fibers, metal and coating fragments, as well as heavy particles on the bottom
of the liquid products. Ampoules can additionally be inspected for seal quality
and tip geometry.
For Lyophilized products, the machine typically detects: missing
product, over/under fill, particles, cracked glass, scratches and dirt. and a
separate camera station is integrated into the inspection machine to detect
especially the cracks at the heel.
Container like ampoules and vials are mostly also checked for
closure defects, cracks and scratches.
