VisiQuick

VisiQuick is a totally flexible machine, suitable for accurate dimensional and geometric inspection, on sample basis, of a large variety of glass containers having different size, shape and colour.
It can be installed in the laboratory or close to the manufacturing line, at the cold end.
 

VisiQuick machine includes one or more measuring stations:

• external dimensions measuring station
including one or two high resolution cameras, with telecentric lens and collimated illuminator, to measure the external characteristics of the container, such as:
- Total height
- Verticality
- Bent neck
- Mouth parallelism
- Body parameters (e.g. diameter, long/short sides and diagonal on non-round containers, height of a given diameter, etc…)
- Finish parameters on any finish type (e.g. diameters, heights, angles, radiuses, etc...)
• inside diameter and profile measuring station
including a rotating/translating bore gauge to dynamically measure the mouth inside diameter and profile
• weight and push-up measuring station
including an industrial scale and an ultrasonic sensor integrated in the same station
• wall thickness measuring station
based on chromatic confocal technology
• labelling area profile measuring station (patent application filed)
based on optical technology, it allows to detect and measure sinks and bulges in the container’s labelling area.
 

BENEFITS

• strong mechanical structure
• flexibility: no retooling at all required to conveyors, pick & place and to the measuring stations when the container to be measured changes
• modularity and upgradability: VisiQuick can be configured with one or more measuring stations, which can be also added to the machine, as un upgrade, after the purchase
• customizable solutions: despite being a product, VisiQuick allows some levels of customizations based on customers’ requirements/necessities
• extensive library of measurements algorithms: besides existing algorithms Marposs can develop new ones based on the customers’ specific requirements
• Industry 4.0 ready: full compatibility with production monitoring system (e.g. Vertech SIL)
• intuitive HMI: VisiQuick™ software, installed in a powerful Industrial PC, provides a simple and intuitive user interface
