ProSpection Solutions has introduced PRO2300 CWI, a check weigh/vision combo package inspection machine with top-to-bottom package inspection of header and side seals, printed variable data, package height inspection and check weighing in one footprint. For a wide variety of foods including meat, cheese, nuts and convenience foods, it can help produce safe packages with less giveaway, the company said.
The PRO2300 CWI is equipped with high-speed, high-resolution top and bottom cameras and high intensity LED lights. It includes a Wipotec load cell that weighs each package individually +/- .5 grams at a rate of up to 150 packages per minute. The system also measures package height and detects empty packages. It includes a dual air blow off reject station for removal of non-conforming packages based on inspection or weight. Easily integrated with upstream and downstream equipment, it has an onboard database to manage incoming and outgoing data. Both vision inspection and check weigher controls are housed in a stand-alone control center, with separate HMI’s for each system.
The entire system is designed to be IP-65 or above and is in accordance USDA washdown guidelines. These robust, simple to use systems are designed/built in the USA and are cost effective to implement and maintain with a single point of contact for 24/7 Remote Support, the company said.
