HEUFT at FachPack: new products for a sustainable product and packaging inspection

Sept. 28, 2010 - PRLog -- HEUFT has transferred its know-how as the technological leader with regard to the quality inspection during the production of drinks to in-house developed applications for the food and healthcare sectors.  Unique features such as the unparalleled, particularly low-radiation, pulsed X-ray measurement and the HEUFT reflexx high-performance image processing system for highest precision, e.g. in the glass in glass detection, form the basis of the ground-breaking new and further developments for the sustainable inspection of products and packaging with regard to food, pharmaceutical goods and cosmetics.  They will be shown live and in action at the FachPack 2010 exhibition on Stand 4-551 of the Nueremberg Exhibition Centre from 28 to 30 September..

The following can be seen:

-  the HEUFT eXaminer XB a completely new and unique top-down scanner which inspects unpackaged and packaged products lying on the conveyor (e.g. for for-eign objects and completeness) for the first time using particularly low-radiation, pulsed HEUFT X-ray technology

-  the new HEUFT eXaminer XAC foreign object inspector which combines the impressive performance of the proven HEUFT eXaminer XA (see: http://www.heuft.com/en/food/foreign-object-inspection-xa...) during the base and sidewall inspection of filled containers with a particularly compact and hygiene-friendly construction in accordance with the HEUFT CleanDesign

-  the HEUFT VX ATEX (see: http://www.heuft.com/en/healthcare/spray-cans-fill-level-...) which achieves the higher speeds demanded by the market during the precise fill level detection of aerosol containers in the Ex area by re-placing traditional weighing systems with the clearly more efficient HEUFT X-ray technology

-  the HEUFT VX OCR which checks the presence and correctness of the contents of product marking such as best-before dates, barcodes or 2D codes

The devices detect product, packaging and marking errors in the production plant.  Proven rejection systems withdraw the products in question in good time before they can reach the market.  In this way costly and reputation damaging liability and recall cases are effectively prevented.  Competent HEUFT experts will be available on the FachPack Stand 4-551 to answer all questions regarding the inspection systems presented and many other solutions for the sustainable safeguarding of the quality of product and packaging.
