Application Examples —

Food, Medicine, and Cosmetics Industries

This page introduces vision sensor applications in the food, medicine, and cosmetics industries.

Detection of Pouches in Cups of Noodles

Sensors are used to detect whether two different types of small pouches are contained correctly or wrong pouches are contained in cup noodle packages before packaging.

Detection of Missing PET Bottle

Sensors are used to reduce labor costs by detecting whether the correct number of plastic bottles are contained in a case.

Label Detection

Sensors are used to reduce labor costs by detecting whether transparent labels are attached to bottles being transferred.

Label Date Check

Sensors are used to detect whether the correct date is printed on labels attached to medicine bottles for product traceability measures.

Loose Cap Detection

Sensors are used to detect whether caps have been properly tightened by checking for lifting or tilting in the capping process.

Noodle Flaw Detection

Sensors are used to detect whether noodles dropped into cups on a transfer conveyor are missing or even.

Promotional Sticker Detection

Sensors are used in place of post-processing visual inspections to check whether fixed-period promotional stickers have been attached.

Printed Expiration Date Detection

Sensors are used to detect various markings such as expiration dates on confectionery bags before shipment for product traceability measures.

Printed Expiration Date Check

Sensors are used to check whether information such as expiration dates printed on products in cup packages is correct before shipment for product traceability measures.

Sealant Tape Presence Inspection

Sensors are used in packaging to check for sealing tape on cartons after products have been added, helping to eliminate mistakes.

Bag Product Front/Back Difference Check

Sensors are used in packaging to detect whether bag products being transferred on the conveyor are correctly lined up, helping to eliminate mistakes.

Attached Straw Detection

Sensors are used from the side during transferring to detect whether straws have been attached to boxed drinks, helping to eliminate mistakes.

Chocolate Count Check

Sensors are used to detect whether the correct number of chocolates have been inserted, and whether the chocolates are facing the right way, helping to eliminate mistakes.

Blister Pack Front/Back Difference Check

Sensors are used in packaging to detect the front and back of blister packs being transferred on the conveyor, helping to eliminate mistakes.

Pharmaceutical Marking Detection

Sensors are used to check for printed information in multiple locations on pharmaceutical products being transferred in multiple rows, enabling low-cost difference checking.
