Overview

Case Inspection for Metal Cans or Glass Jars with Metal Closures

The PRO Series Case system is designed for non-contact, non-destructive, 100% automatic container inspection through a sealed cardboard and/or shrink wrapped case. The system offers the option of acoustic or proximity technology to inspect glass jars with metal closures or metal cans for pressure or vacuum after the containers have been sealed in the case. In many applications, the Case system will detect defects other than low pressure or vacuum. Some examples are missing containers, containers with missing lids or broken bottles, flat sours and damaged cans.
