IN-LINE PLASTIC PELLET PRODUCTION MONITORING AND SORTING - Cost effective solutions for inspecting each pellet produced

inspec.tech offers an innovative solution for the in-line inspection of plastic pellets using the latest machine vision technologies and specialized lighting solutions.
The plastic pellet inspection system’s simple mechanical design is engineered for easy integration into existing production lines, providing a comprehensive inspection solution for the entire production stream, throughput optimization, and quality assurance.
The basic system supports throughput of 1,000 kg/ hr (2,200 lbs/hr), Systems up to 9,000 kg/h (19,800 lbs/hr) are available as standard.

Detection Capabilities
Impurities in the material
Median pellet size variation and pellet size distribution
Tails caused by improper cutting
Angel hair, fines, and streamers caused by the transfer system
Color variations
Cross-contamination

Advantages
Assure quality of manufactured or consumed pellets and automatically sort disqualified pellets inline.
Enable continuous process monitoring and optimization using objective, comprehensive quality standards.
Safely extend your preventive maintenance intervals.

RECOVERING YOUR HIGHGRADE MATERIAL WITH UNPRECEDENTED PRECISION - Using RMI technology in multiple cycles, until the desired purity level is reached
Built upon the company's proven RMI platform capabilities, this innovative solution combines advanced machine vision inspection with intelligent multi-cycle processing, automatically running materials through repeated sorting cycles until optimal purity is achieved.
The system excels at both color-based recovery - separating materials by color variations (e.g white pellets from blue pellets) and contamination-based sorting - identifying defects like black specks within otherwise uniform materials.

SYSTEM HIGHLIGHTS
Automated Multi-Cycle Sorting | The intelligent system runs automatic sorting processes through multiple cycles optimizing throughput and accuracy
Flexible System Configurations | Choose between cost-effective single-sided systems, advanced dual-sided configurations for reduced cycles, or precision sorting systems for maximum accuracy. The precision configuration achieves up to a 1:1 ratio between permissible (OK) pellets and defective (NOK) pellets ejected by the system, delivering unmatched recovery efficiency

With its new RMI Lab system, inspec.tech brings its industry-proven capabilities in plastic pellets inspection to the laboratory.
Whether you are manufacturing plastic pellets or using plastic pellets for your production, the RMI-Lab system allows you to inspect their visual quality in unprecedented speed and reliability that, detecting material failure issues before they damage the final product.
The system integrates all the visual inspection tasks in a single unit, detecting contamination, color variations and size/shape deviations.
High inspection throughput and ease of use allows for significantly larger sample-sizes to be scanned much faster, improving data consistency and reliability, while shortening the inspection latency.

The Automatic UV Cap Layer Measurement system is the world’s first automated system for measuring the UV cap layer thickness of finished PC sheets on the production floor, eliminating the need for time consuming sample preparation or operator expertise.
The operator simply places the finished sheet on the unit with the UV layer facing down and clicks the measure button - the UV cap layer thickness is immediately displayed on the system screen along with the image
