With its image processing systems and smart cameras, EVT wants to make sure, that snacks to go for traveling are safely packed in cartons or bags and noticed positively by the customer.
The EVT products can not only check if the package is tightly sealed, but at the same time can also read the bar code, the expiration date and also the seal of quality.
An excellent example are raisins packed in small cartons, which are ideal for a snack on board a plane or for road trips. But of course you don't want to have raisins rolling around in your handbag or suitcase.
Of course as other food and beverage the raisin snack has to undergo several reliable quality checks before they are stacked in the shops. But also important is the reaction of the consumer on the product. If it looks like there is a lack of hygiene or if the product is not sealed correctly or if the packaging is difficult to handle, the customers will probably not buy the product – in the current case the raisins.
The EyeVision image processing software takes care of the customer wishes. The Software checks that only correctly produced and packed raisin snacks are delivered to the shops. The visual check not only concentrates on the latch and the otherwise unharmed packaging, but EyeVision also can read the bar code and the expiration date.
The visual check inspects the package from front and also bottom. The EyeVision software, combined with one of the EyeCheck smart cameras inspects and evaluates the sealed seam. Therefore not only loose and leaky seams can be detected, but also other defects such as deformations and entrapped air. Also errors in the printing and unreadable bar codes.
Therewith the EyeVision software is user-friendly, because inspection programs are created with the graphical drag-and-drop function. The user does not need any programming skills. The EyeCheck smart camera is equipped with the EyeVision Standard software version but on customer request, can be upgraded to a Professional version.
