When Should You Recheck an Inspection Setup?
A changeover, adjustment, or repair can affect an inspection. Use a defined recheck before production restarts, with known samples and a verified line response.
Catching High and Crooked Caps Before Case Packing
A high or crooked cap can be visible before a container reaches case packing. Learn how cap-height and tilt checks help screen closure problems without replacing torque or leak tests.
When a Reversed Component Looks Like a Complete Assembly
A component can be present and still face the wrong way. Learn how vision inspection separates a complete-looking assembly from a correctly oriented one.
Why Vision Systems Fail
Vision systems rarely fail because a camera exists on the line. They fail when the inspection zone, sample set, pass/fail criteria, or response to failure was never controlled clearly enough.
Vision Tunnel vs Vision Tower: Choosing the Right Inspection Architecture
Tunnel or tower is not a style choice. The better architecture depends on inspection coverage, product presentation, line speed, access, and what needs to...
