Pore detection from scanware
Optoelectronical detection of pinholes and microfissures on aluminium foilOptoelectronical detection of pinholes and microfissures on aluminium foil of up to 1’000 mm width. The system is available in sensitivities of 25, 50, 100, 250 or 500 μm. Apart from the standard use with formed bottom foil, the inspection of lidding foil to establish its quality is increasingly more attractive.
Pore detection (FOCON)
FOCON is installed between the forming and the filling stations at a right angle to the travel direction of the foil. If any pores are present, a signal is given to prevent filling and subsequent ejection occurs. The pore detection can run at the speed of up to 1.5 m/s, thus keeping step with all current blister machines.
Due to its internal fault monitoring capacities, FOCON is self-monitoring, continuously checking system integrity. All outputs are short-circuiting protected and designed for failsafe operation.
Area of application:
- Detection of pores and microfissures in aluminium bottom foil (formed or plane)
- Detection of pores and microfissures in aluminium lidding foil
