1. BIS-XL BOTTLE INSPECTION SYSTEM Optomech BIS is a high performance system for checking the visual defects in plastic injection blow moulded bottles

2. During the process of bottle manufacturing a number of defects are generated, due to unavoidable conditions such as temperature variations, raw material defects, contaminations etc. But customers today are becoming more and more demanding and have zero tolerance for defective products. It is essential for bottle manufacturing companies to inspect 100% of their product. It is not possible to do so anymore by the traditional methods of manual checking and sorting. The BIS-XL is a high performance system which does 100% inspection and sorting of bottles for all possible defects automatically and ensures peace of mind for manufacturers as well as their customers. Salient features • Each bottle is inspected for defects like spots, material inclusions, color smears, color shade variations, flashes, ovality, diameter variations, holes and transparency. • Easy to define tolerances allow the user to decide which bottles need to be accepted or rejected. • System changes over quickly to inspect new products. Changeover involves simply selecting the required product from the system library using the touch screen. • High speed, machine vision cameras, precision optics and customised lighting coupled with state of the art 21 CFR Part 11 compliant software provide security, accuracy and repeatability. • Large monitor displays the image of the bottles as they are passing through the system. • 3 Level access control for ‘User’, ‘Supervisor’ and ‘Administrator’ through separate passwords. • Periodic reports are generated as per user defined frequency eg. hourly, daily, weekly etc. • All the product data is stored in a database and can be retrieved at any time.

3. Multiple camera provide all round inspection Stand alone system integrates directly into the production process Hardware • Vision system consists of eleven high speed machine vision cameras, high resolution optics and custom designed lighting. • Bottles are transported through the system with the help of two conveyors. •Ergonomically designed enclosure with alarm and door interlocks to prevent accidental opening during process. •Data processing unit with 21“ touch screen monitor. •Pneumatic ejection mechanism to eject the rejected bottles. Process Inspection • Bottles are picked-up from the blow molding machine’s conveyor by a clamp conveyor provided in the bottle inspection system. • From the clamp conveyor the bottles are transferred to the fat belt conveyor. • As the bottles pass through the system the high speed camera capture images of the bottles from all directions, the images are processed in realtime to detect the defective bottles. • Defective bottles are ejected from the system with the help of the pneumatic ejection mechanism. • Eight cameras capture images of the full 360° view of the surface including the thread area. • Two cameras inspect the bottles for defect in the top sealing surface and bottom area . • One camera inspects the bottle from inside. • Large monitor displays the images of the bottles as they are passing through the system. • Results of the last 100 bottles are displayed onscreen.

4. Typical Defects OUTER SIDEWALL TOP SEALING SURFACE • Flashes and extra material • Under/Short molding • Ovality • Diameter Variation • Bottle shape variation • Incomplete blowing • Color Shade Variation • Black spots • Burn spots • Coving • Short molding • Extra material • Ovality • Holes • Thin wall CONTAINER BASE • Pin Hole • Incomplete blowing • Black spots • Transparency NECK/THREAD AREA • Thread Damage • Contamination • Black spots • Incomplete blowing INSIDE THE BOTTLE • Dark spots • Mateial Insert • Contamination

5. Inspection results are stored in the data base product wise Detailed statistical reports can be generated and viewed in excel Set Up Reporting • Add/teach new products: Can be done easily by following a few simple steps in the software. The system can be set up for hundreds of different bottles. • Advanced learn capability: User can set the parameters which define the criteria for acceptance or rejection of the bottle, just by passing a few ‘good’ bottles, and a few ‘defective’ bottles, the system will then automatically set the parameters. • Customization: User can choose the defects to be detected, define the tolerances for each defect and define the area to be inspected. • All the user settings are saved in a database. • Reports can be exported to excel. • Reports can be exported over the network. • System can be configured to automatically generate an excel report at a predefined time, and send over the network. • The user can at any time select the product and a start and end date. The software will generate reports on the • Number of bottles inspected per shift • Number of defective bottles per shift classified as per the defect classes. Results • The results of the last 100 bottles are displayed onscreen. •The photos of the defective bottles are stored, in the database, they can be recalled for review anytime in the future. •The inspection results are stored in the database product wise.
