Filling pipe detection

Control device based on X-ray technology for detecting foreign metal objects in the beverage container.
For use after the filler and capper, also for opaque bottles or metal cans.

  • Pulsed X-ray technology
  • Minimal radiation exposure
  • Optional HSPM control

Inspection head, using x-ray technologie to check for metal foreign bodies like filling tubes in filled and closed beverage cans (aluminium or steel cans) or bottles. Including hand wheel height adjustment.

The measurement is based on an X-ray technology especially developed for this purpose. Minimum radiation exposure, since pulsed X-ray radiation is only generated at the short moment of measurement. The radiation emission is typically below the naturally occurring levels in enclosed spaces.

Comprehensive statistics of faults are available. Connection to an external production data acquisition system is possible.

Accessories & modifications

Automatic request of the specially prepared and marked test bottles to check the flawless operation of the inspection machine. The test bottles are marked with reflection foil (One sheet of reflection foil 230mm x 100mm is included. The test cycle of the test bottle request is based on time and freely adjustable. Free selectable signal output for the test bottle request. Logging of the last test bottle run in the inspection system and, as an option, in the production data acquisition software miho Awes, incl timestamp (not included).

To detect the presence of a metal cap (crown cork, screw cap) via an inductive proximity switch. Including height adjustment for different bottle heights.

For detecting the presence of a plastic cap by means of a width measurement of the cap diameter. Suitable for glass bottles and PET bottles. Including height adjustment for different bottle heights.
