Inline measurement of barrier layers

Testing solutions for packaging, medical technology & pharmaceuticals

Summary

The MV.SENSE b1i optical inspection system measures the shape and wall thickness of translucent plastic packaging. The inline inspection is contactless and performed in sync with production, thus enabling 100% inline inspection of multi-layer packaging materials.

One important application is the non-destructive measurement of the thickness of barrier layers, for example those made of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH), in food packaging. The measuring system checks the total layer thickness as well as the thickness of the barrier layer.

The high measurement frequency of up to 200 kHz makes it suitable for use in production machines for 100% in-house inspection. MABRI.VISION supplies various systems, from point-based 1D measurement to 3D systems that scan a large measurement field at a measurement rate of up to 200 Hz.

What are we checking?

The modular testing platform MV.EYE offers you a testing solution for all process steps in the production of steel and stainless steel abrasive tubes

wall thickness check

The test can be performed on all packaging made of semi-transparent plastics.

form check

The cross-sectional images can be used in particular for checking the shape of films such as blisters. The width and height of fine structures can be checked precisely.

Multi-layer testing

Individual layers can be separated at wall thicknesses of 10 µm and above. During the manufacturing process, tolerances of internal layers can be checked inline and non-destructively.

Universal: versatile

Blisters

Deep-drawn packaging is used in the pharmaceutical industry – this can be fully tested with the MV.SENSE b1i system.

bottles

The MABRI.VISION testing system is ideally suited for testing plastic bottles and provides data on shape, wall thickness and quality defects.

Slides

Rely on 100% quality control and guarantee high-quality and error-free products by using MABRI.VISION inspection technology.

sample applications

Extrusion blow molding wall thickness test

During extrusion blow molding, we check wall thickness and seam areas at critical points. This means that defects such as thin spots, which can later lead to crack formation, can be identified at an early stage of the process.

Wall thickness test for injection stretch blow molding

When stretch blow molding packaging, even material distribution and molding is crucial for its later function. MABRI.VISION sensors are used for wall thickness testing in the manufacturing process.

Wall thickness check in deep-drawing processes

In addition to wall thickness testing, the MABRI.VISION sensors are also suitable for testing film structures. The signal is captured using the same optics. This avoids shading effects that occur with classic laser profile sensors.
