Inspection and volume measurement of bread in bakeries

Misshapen bread will be rejected automatically to increase quality and reduce problems in the packaging station. The volume measurement can be used for on-line adjustments of the process parameters.

Verification of content in praline boxes

Checks that all pralines are produced correctly and placed in the right position in the box. Contrast-independent inspection by 3D is the solution to check the shape of dark pralines on a dark background.

Inspection of brake plates in automotive industry

Three features are inspected on the brake plate: the surface, height position of the plug, and the angle of the metallic spring. All are 3D features and are inspected simultaneously.
