Installations running at full capacity in food, beverages and pharma, including for key suppliers to Spain's leading grocery retailer. Here are a few: the problem, the solution and the result, with the details of each case.
Dairy · cartonThe inspection only checked for the presence or absence of the code and was throwing away good packs. With OCR and logging, and with top and bottom seal measurement on two lines of up to 250,000 packs a day, total waste fell to 0.009% excluding the scheduled cap test, across 26 million packs inspected, and wet pallets became a thing of the past.
Juices · 6-packAt a juice plant, 6-packs containing only 5 packs were slipping through. With so many references that one recipe per product was not viable, a single recipe with a deep learning inference tool counts every multipack.
Dairy · wrap-around caseAt a dairy plant, 8 overhead smart cameras, managed by 2 TIVOX Sentinel licences, check before each case is closed that all the packs are of the same type, have a cap and carry a code.
Dairy · bottleThe previous system only checked for presence or absence. After months of trials on the line, three tools: OCR of the code with logging, cap presence by deep learning and cap placement angle.
Carton pack · sealingWith Nadir we detect sealing problems on the bottom of carton packs using deep learning, and process statistics anticipate deviations before they turn into defects.
Broths · caseAt a broth plant, a camera at the cartoner outlet detects cases with open flaps before they reach the palletiser. The next step, already planned: a Sentinel to inspect every pack.
After installation
Every system is tested at TIVOX before it is shipped and installed at your plant. And with the SaaS subscription we monitor it closely every day: making sure waste does not soar, that the machines do their job and that they are up and running.
How we work
A vision project is won or lost in the first week, when you decide where the camera looks and with what lighting. That's why we start at your plant, not in a catalogue.
Photos, videos or samples of good and bad packs that you send us, and a lighting test in our lab. Remote and free of charge; if a visit to your plant is needed, travel is charged separately.
What can be detected, with what expected reliability, what falls outside the scope and what it costs.
Mounting, optics, lighting, trigger, rejector and communication with the PLC.
Tuning with real production, training and documentation.
Guaranteed installation, remote support, threshold reviews, new formats and periodic reports.
