Bottled blended fruit juices and beverages

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND AND CORE CHALLENGES

The market for modern fruit juices and health beverages is thriving, with production lines typically operating continuously at very high speeds. Product compositions are becoming increasingly complex—incorporating large fruit chunks, pulp fibers, and purees—while packaging formats range from PET plastic bottles to glass bottles. Amidst this high-speed, large-scale production, manufacturers face multiple quality control challenges: fruit particles can trigger false alarms, interfering with traditional foreign object and fill-level detection systems; high-speed filling and capping processes are prone to issues such as tilted caps, "high caps" (improperly seated caps), damaged tamper-evident bands, and misaligned labels; furthermore, leakage caused by trapped material in the seals of flexible packaging is a primary source of customer complaints. To address these challenges, we offer a modular, matrix-style protection solution integrating both vision inspection and X-ray inspection systems.

Scenario 1: Aseptic Cold Filling PET Plastic Bottle Line – Rapid Control of Appearance and Liquid Level

 

Compound Beverages

 

Application scenarios: The most common 300ml-1L transparent/semi-transparent PET plastic bottles for juice and tea beverages.

Key pain points:

High-speed capping and labeling defects: High-speed capping can easily lead to caps not being pressed tightly (high caps), misaligned threads (crooked caps), and broken tamper-evident rings; self-adhesive labels are prone to misalignment and wrinkles.

Fruit pulp/foam interference with liquid level: Foam or suspended fruit pulp generated during juice filling often causes ordinary sensors to misjudge the liquid level.

Recommended model


Testing items (testing content is configurable):

High outer cover, security ring: Industrial cameras capture bottleneck areas and accurately identify high outer covers, crooked covers, and broken security rings.

High-precision liquid level measurement with anti-interference capability: Exclusive visual algorithm intelligently identifies image interference from fruit pulp particles and surface foam, accurately locating the real liquid level baseline.

Labeling: Identify label height differences and misalignment of seams.

OCR coding: Cameras can be configured according to different coding positions to read the bottle's production date/batch number, etc.

Scenario 2: Glass Bottling Line – The World-Class Problem of “Glass Mixing with Glass”

Compound Beverages

Application scenarios: concentrated fruit juice, dairy products, fruit tea (usually using wide-mouth glass bottles).

Key pain points:

Bottle body/bottle mouth defects: Glass shards caused by impacts and breakage during cleaning. Due to the similarity in material and density, traditional inspection methods make it extremely difficult to comprehensively identify "glass shards" and "bottle body chips".

Recommended model


Test items:

Visual Inspection - 360° Appearance Inspection: Images are captured by 6 cameras at different angles, and the system's AI model automatically identifies glass fragments and bottle dents by comparison.
