GobWatch

Gob Monitoring, Inspection and Control

The GobWatch is an innovative gob monitoring, gob weight control and gob inspection system. The GobWatch system uses two high resolution cameras to create 3D images of all gobs from single, dual, triple or quad gob feeders.
The gob weight control function of the GobWatch system is very precise (±0.05% achievable) and works with single weight and multi weight gob feeders.
The GobWatch system can automatically reject glass products with gob weight deviations, gob length deviations or gob falling angle deviations.
The GobWatch system inspects flint glass gobs for inclusions like seeds, bubbles and stones. The system counts the number of seeds and bubbles and provides information about their sizes. The GobWatch system rejects a formed glass product when an inclusion is detected in the glass gob.
The GobWatch system comes with different options, is easy to use, improves the quality and productivity, shortens the Job-Change time and has a fast payback time.
