Catch assembly faults
Inspect position and geometry rather than relying on a simple presence sensor.
Cap & closure integrity
Check every cap and closure before products leave production
Detect missing, high, skewed, damaged or incorrect closures using views and sensing matched to the container and cap geometry.
The inspection challenge
Inspect the assembled closure, not just cap presence
A cap may be present yet cross-threaded, high, skewed or mismatched. Side, top and oblique views can measure the features that indicate correct assembly, while line tracking keeps each decision tied to the right container.
- Missing cap or closure detection
- High, skewed or cross-thread indicators
- Tamper-band and bridge inspection
- Correct colour and closure matching
- Damaged cap feature detection
- 360° inspection with multiple views
Production outcomes
Designed to make every decision useful
Prevent mix-ups
Verify selected closure features against the active product recipe.
Protect throughput
Run non-contact checks at production speed with automatic tracking and reject.
Application framework
What the system can include
Final scope follows trials and a line survey. The table shows the main engineering considerations for this inspection type.
Send us your pack detailsCommon formatsScrew caps, snap caps, flip tops, pumps, triggers, corks and specialist closures
MeasurementsHeight, tilt, concentricity, feature presence, colour and visible damage
ViewsTop, side, oblique or multi-camera 360° layouts
IntegrationCapper feedback, PLC signals, reject, alarm, HMI and product recipes
A controlled route to production
From sample pack to validated inspection point
Reliable inspection begins with realistic defects and finishes with the line proving that the correct failed pack was removed.
Define the fault
Agree the pack, line speed, critical seal area and pass/fail tolerance.
Prove the image
Trial representative good packs, known failures and normal production variation.
Engineer the station
Specify handling, optics, lighting, controls, guarding and reject method.
Integrate & validate
Install, commission and test the complete inspection and rejection sequence.
Practical answers
Seal inspection questions
Clear answers before you invest in an in-line inspection project.
Can vision confirm cap torque?
Vision can detect geometric indicators such as height and skew, but it does not directly measure applied torque. A torque or capping-process measurement may be required when torque must be verified.
Can one system inspect pumps and trigger closures?
Potentially. Their complex shapes may require several views and controlled orientation; sample trials confirm the practical inspection scope.
Can the system check the label at the same station?
Yes, if the field of view, resolution and line arrangement support both tasks. Separate views may be preferred to keep each inspection robust.
Application guidance
Combine closure geometry with the right integrity evidence
Cap height, skew, type, ring and tamper features are visible checks; torque or hidden foil condition may require another method.
