SNIPE is a high-speed and robust inspection system that is retrofitted onto a packaging lines to verify the integrity of bottle seals. Snipe employs precision vision technology and intuitive software. SNIPE is both minimalist and cost-effective.
Many products within the milk and dairy industry require heat seals to ensure the integrity of products since heat seals guarantee safety, quality, freshness and that the product doesn’t degrade or become contaminated.
Yet currently, seal integrity inspections are limited to random sampling with manual spot checks. Although helpful, these checks are very inefficient in terms of resources, cost, and time.
A failed heat seal can lead to:
1. Delays in the production line and severe wastage of produce and packaging
2. Market complaints and non-conformances concerning the product quality
3. Damaged caps lead to contamination and reduced potency of the product
4. Recalls and poor feedback from clients or end-users
SNIPE ensures problems that arise during the heat seal process are flagged immediately, rather than at the end of the shift or later in the manufacturing process. Thereby reducing the cost to rectify the damage, potential recalls, and negative feedback due to sealing issues.
