2023-03-27

The new V13 Flat Pack Label Inspection system features bottom inspection functionality and can also be integrated into the new CV and CMV Combination systems that additionally combine checkweighing and metal detection.

Giesen, Germany, 20^th March 2023 – Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection has launched a completely automated, full label inspection service for food manufacturers. The technology inspects 100% of products and shapes and identifies 100% of label data and quality challenges. This new portfolio, consisting of the V13 Flat Pack Label, CV and CMV Combination, is a cost effective way to exchange unreliable, manual spot checks with 100% automated label inspection in high speed production lines. The solution helps to achieve documented label inspection in line with industry guidelines such as the BRCGS to support consumer safety, prevent recalls and expensive retailer fines.

The new offering includes advanced Mettler-Toledo smart cameras to inspect oriented products from the side and top. This unique new smart line scan camera effectively inspects labels or prints on the underside of products and offers a 360° degree inspection head for checking round objects. The cameras can be mixed and matched to suit any production need and can also be used to inspect caps and lids. The software is particularly easy to use, featuring a dedicated tool set for label inspection that helps with product set-up. Additionally, it offers Software Tooltips which are inspection tools to intuitively guide operators through the image processing settings such as lights, shutter or focus to maximise image quality. The new technology can be retrofitted onto existing Mettler-Toledo equipment offering considerable space savings.
