Antares Vision Group, a company specializing in digitalization and integrated data management, track and trace hardware and software solutions, and inspection systems for quality control, has introduced a new series of inspection machines offering comprehensive, customizable packaging inspection for food and beverage applications. To meet wide-ranging customer quality control needs, the company’s All-in-One equipment portfolio incorporates multiple inspection controls into single machines, maximizing production space and manpower efficiencies while offering exemplary quality assurance.
Combinable features for Antares Vision Group’s All-in-One series include regulatory compliance, container integrity, micro-leak (micro-hole) and contaminants detection, weight control, and labelling/print verification for parameters such as expiration date and lot code. In combining these attributes into single machines, AVG aims to enhance quality inspection for food and beverage brands – one that balances the often difficult-to-square needs for multi-faceted quality control and streamlined production optimization.
The new portfolio is made possible thanks in part to the expertise of Antares Vision Group subsidiary FT System, as well as Pen-Tec, which specializes in inspection controls and has been active in the food and beverage industry for over two decades. Combined, the two players offer a multi-technology portfolio, from laser and hyperspectral spectroscopy to vision and weight control and X-ray inspection, which guarantees excellent quality control and satisfies the needs of all supply chain stakeholders.
The first All-in-One models combine inspections required by regulations with applications that enable food and beverage companies to check for the presence of micro-holes in packaging, check for the presence of foreign bodies, check the weight of the product, check the seal, and check labels and codes.
Other advantages of Antares Vision Group’s All-in-One series include reduced machine dimensions (similar footprint as most standard checkweighers), a single user interface overseeing all inspection parameters, differentiated waste and automatic recipe settings, and reduced energy consumption. In addition, much like AVG’s standalone solutions, each machine in its All-in-One series can be integrated into the company’s Digital Factory software platform, which seamlessly connects all solutions to optimize production and monitor efficiency.
Furthermore, by leveraging Antares Vision Group’s expertise, food and beverage brand owners can integrate inspection results and attributes with end-to-end product traceability, ensuring transparency and safety in all stages of their supply chains.
“All-in-One is a revolutionary approach to in-line quality control in food,” says Matteo Bandini, food and packaging director, Antares Vision Group Food. “Now, a single machine contains all the quality controls necessary to satisfy the safety and quality demands of all supply chain stakeholders, from production to distribution to the end-user. From now on, our customers will only have to think about which inspections they need to ensure quality and safety for the consumer – not how many machines they have to buy. Antares Vision Group’s All-in-One series does everything.”
