One station. Every critical pack feature.
Packaging Inspection Systems
Inspect packaging condition, identity and completeness across the formats your line actually runs—from individual containers to finished cases and pallets.
Pack inspection
Format-specific inspection without fragmented controls
Different packs create different optical challenges. Curved glass reflects light, films wrinkle, cartons vary in print, and pallet loads require wide fields of view. We combine the right camera views and lighting techniques into one coordinated inspection and reject strategy.

What the system can cover
Each check is configured against agreed samples, tolerances and fault responses. Multiple checks can be combined into a single inspection recipe.

Engineering priorities
What turns an inspection into a dependable production station
- 01
Map every critical-to-quality feature to a camera view and reject decision
- 02
Use polarisation, backlighting or diffuse illumination to manage reflective materials
- 03
Track products between several camera stations and a common reject point
- 04
Coordinate recipes with upstream fillers, cappers, labellers and coders
- 05
Separate presentation problems from genuine pack defects in alarm reporting
- 06
Provide maintenance access and cleanable construction appropriate to the line environment
From samples to sign-off
A controlled route from question to production
We reduce risk early by proving the inspection on representative products before final hardware, handling and controls are committed.
Define
Agree the pack, defect, speed, reject risk, data needs and acceptance criteria.
Prove
Run feasibility tests using representative good, bad and borderline samples.
Engineer
Design handling, cameras, lighting, controls, guarding and rejection as one station.
Integrate
Build, validate, install, train and support the system in production.

Pack inspection FAQs
Need an answer for your exact product or line? Send us the application details and we will identify the next useful test.
Ask an application questionCan one system inspect different packaging formats?
Yes, where the handling and camera arrangement can cover the required formats. Recipes select tolerances and inspection regions; mechanical change parts or adjustable camera positions may also be needed.
How are all sides of a round bottle inspected?
Options include multiple cameras around the product, line-scan imaging, controlled rotation or a combination. The best method depends on line speed, label geometry and available conveyor length.
Can the system identify the wrong product in the right pack?
It can compare visible product or pack features, labels, artwork, codes and database records. The available identifiers and required level of assurance define the approach.
Can cases and pallets be inspected too?
Yes. Typical end-of-line checks include count, orientation, label presence, code readability, closure condition, layer pattern and gross load appearance.
