Mettler Toledo CI-Vision's 360° Full View bottle inspection system utilizes four cameras to produce a seamless complete image of the bottle being inspected. The new system can inspect full or empty bottles of plastic or glass, in various colors and sizes up to 1.5 liters at line speeds of up to 400 bottles per minute. Like most of CI Vision's product offerings, the 360 degree Full View has an aluminum enclosure around a conveyor and features a user-friendly touch-screen operator interface mounted onto a side panel. As a bottle passes through the enclosure at any orientation, it triggers four cameras to capture images of the bottle simultaneously. The analysis software performs the routines that calculate the bottle's coordinates and determine whether the correct label has been placed in the proper position on the bottle. If for any reason a bottle fails inspection, it is tracked and diverted through a soft reject mechanism.
