Glue Application Verification

  • Industrial machine vision system for the automatic check of glue application in the packaging and corrugated industry.
  • Fatigue-free, 100 % control of your production.
  • Instant detection of misplaced or missing glue lines.
  • Reduces complaints and increases customer loyalty.
  • Can be installed in almost any converting machine.

Vistron Glue Application Verification system (GAV) is installed in flexo folder gluer and multi point folder gluer and enables the fully automatic check of the glue application of cold gluing systems from any manufacturer. The image processing system of Vistron consists of an LED lighting unit, a high-resolution industrial camera, a computer unit with software and a touchscreen monitor for image output and operation. With the GAV system, there is a 100% check of the applied glue, while the machine is running at full production speed. The system detects the start of the glue lines, the end of the glue lines, as well as possible skew of the box, while being folded in the machine. The taken image, as well as the measured values, are being presented on the monitor and, in case of deviations outside of adjustable limits, a marking device is triggered, or even an automatic ejection of the faulty box takes place, depending on the technical capabilities of the converting machine.

GAV checks the boxes passing through the machine in real time, up to a speed of 18,000 boxes per hour. The measuring accuracy of the system is +/- 0.3 mm regardless of the production speed. The system is suitable for flexo folder gluer and multi point folder gluer of almost all manufacturers and working widths.

The 100 % check of the Glue Application Verification system evaluates

  • Number of glue lines
  • Start of the glue lines (in reference to the leading edge of the glue flap)
  • Length of the glue lines
  • Skew of the box

Design and installation of the Glue Application Verification system is specific to the individual flexo folder gluer or multi point folder gluer. A list of machines which we have already upgraded with a Glue Application Verification system can be provided upon request. The setup of orders and the operation of the system is conveniently done via a touchscreen monitor. Detected deviations from target values are clearly displayed on the monitor. For each job, a detailed report is generated, which can also be used for process optimization purposes. In addition to checks of the ongoing production, you can optimize your processes, increase your product quality, lower your production costs and increase customer satisfaction and customer loyalty.

The Vistron Glue Application Verification system checks 100 % of the production of your flexo folder gluer or your multi point folder gluer reliably and fatigue-free. Via an error indication unit, a marking system, or a fully automatic box ejection system can be triggered, so that your customers receive only perfectly glued boxes. Also the machine can be stopped after an (adjustable) number of subsequent faulty boxes, avoiding waste.

  • 100 % check of the glue application to your products
  • Retrofittable to flexo folder gluer and multi point folder gluer of almost every width and manufacturer
  • User friendly operation by means of a touchscreen
  • Simple creation of new jobs
  • No manual checks required anymore
  • Detailed report, with statistical process data
  • Reduction of customer complaints and increase of customer satisfaction
  • Short Return on Invest, typically in less than one year
