8 cameras, a single control station: every case checked before it is closed

At a dairy plant, the last chance to see what goes into each case is just before the wrap-around case packer closes it. That is where we installed 8 overhead cameras that check that all the packs are of the same type, have a cap and carry a code.

What is checked

Three things on every pack, from above

The cameras are mounted directly above the area where the wrap-around cardboard case is formed, before closing. From there they see the top of all the packs in the case at once.

  • All packs are identical, of the same type: no pack from another reference slips in
  • All of them have a cap
  • All of them carry a code

How it is set up

Many cameras, a single place to manage them

The 8 HIKROBOT SC3000 smart cameras are centralised in a single control station and managed by 2 TIVOX Sentinel licences. The plant team sees all the cameras, the rejects and the counters from one place, without going from camera to camera.

Control

Everything on one screen

Live cameras, the latest rejects with their photo, and good and bad counters for all 8 cameras.

Evidence

Photo of every reject

Every rejected case is stored with its image, the time and the reason.

Reliability

99%

The reliability of the inspection on the line, checking pack type, cap and code in every case.
