SACMI INSPECTION SYSTEM
The PMA24L is equipped with the MVS PMA Inspection System to reliably detect any possible defects that might appear on a lugged cap.
A first optional image acquisition unit with color camera is installed in the transfer star wheel, allowing detection of defects on the decorated outer side (color adjustment, smears, wrong colors, off-center decorations, mixed decorations, stains, scratches, etc.).
A second image acquisition unit with b/w camera is installed in the exit conveyor, allowing detection of defects in the molten gasket; the MVS PMA also provides defect statistics by tool number for fast, efficient feedback to ensure easy machine maintenance.
A third image acquisition unit, equipped with the SACMI patented CHROMETRIQ illuminator, allows defect detection on the functional, inner side of closures, such as contamination, scratches, malformed or non-formed lugs, defects in the curl, cap diameter measurement, lug size (width and height) and distance between the cap center and each lug.
