Find Product Pinched In the Seal
Finding product pinched in the seal has typically been nearly impossible,
especially when the package is opaque. Optical scanners have had a limited
usefulness, and only on clear packages. Our X-ray technology coupled with
Hyper-Switch™ processing platform can find very small pieces of pinched product
even with package rotation.
