Proven Solutions that Keep Operations Running
-
-
Drilled Holes Inspection
This application uses an iVu Series sensor configured for an Area inspection. When holes are punched, the sensor evaluates all the holes to make sure that they are present and correctly sized. If any are not, the sensor sends a fail output to the line where the part is rejected.
-
Electronic Marking Verification
The solution uses an iVu Series sensor configured for a Match inspection. A reference "good" identifier is taught into the sensor. In service on the production line, the sensor detects when a component does not have the correct identifier, and sends a fail output to the line, and the part is rejected.

Accurate Label Inspection
The company was experiencing several quality control issues—bottles were coming off the line with missing, skewed and double labels. As a result, the customer was scrapping over 2,000 bottles a month, a process which requires them to cut out the mislabeled portion of the bottles and re-grind the plastic for reuse. Further, the labeling errors began prompting serious customer complaints. To avoid scrapping additional bottles and losing loyal customers, the company came to Banner for a label inspection solution.

Combined Inspections Used to Meet Quality Standards
Bottles incorrectly packed into bliss trays for sale in club stores did not properly display product labels and had to be returned to the company.
-
Blister Pack Inspection
To verify each blister in the pack, use an iVu Series sensor configured for an Area inspection. The sensor inspects each blister pack to make sure that each blister contains an unbroken tablet.
-
Punch Hole Inspection
To verify that the expected number of holes exist on a small metal part that is not rigidly fixed, use an iVu Series sensor configured for an Area with Motion application. When holes are punched, the sensor evaluates all the holes to make sure that they are present and correctly sized. If any are not, the sensor sends a fail output to the line where the part is rejected.
-
Inspection of Stoppers in Vials for Correct Seal
To ensure that a stopper is properly inserted as each vial leaves the filling station, an iVu Series sensor—set up for an Area with Motion application—verifies that the vial has a stopper inserted into its neck and that the stopper is positioned correctly to provide a proper seal on the glass vial. If the stopper is missing or incorrectly positioned, then the sensor sends a fail output to the line.
-
Box Insert Detection
To confirm that each unit includes a product information insert, an iVu Series sensor is mounted above the packaging line. The sensor is configured for a Match inspection, and checks that the product information leaflet is inserted into each package of medication. The leaflet can be placed in any orientation, but must beface up.The sensor can detect 360 degrees of rotation to find the insert.
-
Date/Lot Code Inspection
To verify each package has a date/lot code printed on it, an iVu Series sensor is configured for a Match inspection. An image of the date/lot code is captured. When the inspection is running, if the sensor detects a package without the date/lot code the sensor sends a fail output to the line, and the product is rejected.
-
Food Packaging Label Inspection
To verify each box is correct, an iVu Series sensor is configured for a Match inspection with 360 degree rotation enabled. An image of the correct box is captured and when the inspection is running, if the sensor detects an incorrect box, the sensor sends a fail output to the line, and the product is rejected.

How-to: Advanced Table Functionality
Arrange column order by dragging and dropping the column header left/right with your mouse.
Sort items in a column by ascending values by clicking the table header once. Click a second time to sort by descending order. Click a third time to remove the sorting for that column.
Shift-click additional column headers to sort by multiple attributes. The first column you sort becomes the primary sort, and each Shift-clicked column adds a secondary level of sorting.
