VCI
Positioned downstream of the capper, it checks the vacuum seal of the cap, detecting and signalling defects.

What it inspects
Cap seal
Twist-off vacuum seal
Laser sensor and mapping algorithm: it checks that the twist-off click-clack system is under tension.



Cap presence
Presence, position, seating
The same sensor tells a cap present, missing or out of position, and commands the rejection.



Cap colour
Additional module
Detects a cap whose colour is not the expected one and sends it to rejection.

Caps of different colours
Placement and capabilities
Downstream of the capper, on the twist-off cap seal.

Surface mapping
Laser sensor and mapping algorithm verify the twist-off cap seal.
Jars and bottles
Inspects twist-off closures on glass jars and bottles, on a continuous line.
Cap present or missing
The same sensor also detects whether the cap is present.
Rejector control
Drives the REJ or QLS rejection systems downstream, to separate and eject rejects.
Interface and remote support
Ethernet for local and internet connections; OPC-UA Client, MQTT and Modbus for Industry 4.0; remote support over an encrypted VPN.
