LEAKAGE INSPECTION SYSTEMS
The Vacuum/Pressure Measurement Systems VPMS and LPT7000 by ibea are especially designed for leak-testing cans and ends. The underlying principle here is to work with vacuum and (over)pressure applied to the inspected product. The difference lies in the measuring systems to determine if there is a leakage:
Complete technology, completely developed in-houseInspection cells or modules for checking the quality of prefabricated parts or introduction parts are crucial elements in fully automated production lines as used in the medical sector and the cosmetics industry. Since they have to ensure no faulty parts will proceed through the production process. Especially complex is the feed-in and feed-out of the parts, which have to be separated and put in the right position when passing the inspection cells. ibea has the command of all technologies required here. Ensuring a quick and trouble-free inspection operation.
Mature and state-of-the-art Most inspection methods are based on image processing. ibea uses its own multi inspection cameras, available in B&W, color or in a combined version. These systems have been continuously developed throughout the 20 years of our company history. They offer a realm of technical finesse. E.g. a modular RGB lighting that can be exchanged against white light or UV light. Naturally, an integrated light controller is included. Just as light modules like corona, beam splitters and cloudy-day domes. The image processing is supervised by a gear clock operated „Real Time System" (RTS) which controls the image scan, illumination and up to 3 ejectors. It supports the asynchronous scanning of three lines with up to eight cameras respectively. Type and resolution of the cameras will be adjusted according to the individual requirements (high resolution cameras, line scan camera, B&W or color). The RTS allows for three separate ejectors with integrated ejector control.

PRODUCTSDISCREPENCIES IN PRESSURE
After application of vacuum or pressure a first gauging, via pressure sensor, is taking place before adhering to a stipulated waiting period and a second gauging. The difference of the two readings determines if the product is ok or has a leak. The Vacuum/Pressure Measurement Systems VPMS and LPT7000 by ibea are especially designed for leak-testing cans and ends. The underlying principle here is to work with vacuum and (over)pressure applied to the inspected product. The difference lies in the measuring systems to determine if there is a leakage:
LIGHT LEAK TESTING
After putting a vacuum on the product it will be charged with very bright light on the outside. In the next step a picture will be taken of the hollow part of the product. If any light reaches the inside of the product it has a defect. Even very small defects can be detected by using this method, without waiting for different pressure values. THERMOGRAPHIC MEASUREMENTS
During this application, generally known as heat-flow thermography, the product is temporarily heated at a defined point to create a heat flow into its immediate environment. In case of transitional defects thermal bridges occur, which can be recorded and analyzed by thermographic cameras. |
