Monitoring of cans

Description

A snack maker delivers treats in metal cans, among other containers. Before delivery, the cans have to be inspected for damage. This task requires a sensor which is not affected by the glossy can bottoms.

Solution

The LSIS 412i smart camera is used for this purpose. Its integrated illumination features a special lens. It consists of eight lens segments that ensure a rectangular, intense and evenly illuminated field of view. This allows the can to be reliably inspected for damage - without interference due to glossy can bottoms.
