ampoules

Automated inspection of color ring codes on glass ampoules The task The contents of ampoules of different sizes are coded by manu-facturers by means of three colored rings. Vitronic’s quality inspection system VINSPEC verifies these color ring combinations that define the contents on a circular automated system, prior to labeling of the ampoules. Here, the intensity and arrangement of the color rings are checked for errors. The verification is carried out by the image-processing system, where a specifications database has been integrated.
