Conveyor system for labelling and checking packaged products in the agri-food industry

Ligne de conditionnement pour étiqueter des produits

Conveyor system for labelling and checking packaged products in the agri-food industry.

 

Project summary:

The goal of the project is to add labels to products and check the labelling at a rate of 120 products per minute per line. The products arrive from existing upstream conveyors. They are arranged on two lines with two labelling machines each. The products are labelled from below, and then contrast sensors check whether the label has been applied correctly. If a product does not have a label, it is ejected from the conveyor line.
