Food Packaging – Label Inspection and Discharging Application Example

• A vision sensor is used to inspect the printing of the date printed on the lid of a cup of food.

• If defects are found in the printing, the ROBO Cylinder is used to push the product and discharge it from the conveyor. This was previously done manually.

• By introducing this system:
1. Productivity has improved
2. Conveyor speed has been increased
3. Labor costs have been reduced
4. Defects were eliminated

• The ROBO Cylinder actuator was chosen, instead of an air cylinder to discharge the defective products, due to its "energy conservation" and "ease of programming" characteristics.
