Quality Control systems and software for Food cans

Quality control test systems for three piece food cans.

  • SEAM360 for Food Cans - A 360 degree view of double seams

    By measuring thickness and length at every point around the can - we found that many internal problems are easily found. The system uses laser profiling technology to quickly process an entire can and produce the 360 degree thickness and length graphs.

    By analyzing these graphs, problems such as wrinkle, open seams and even false seams can be detected easily.

    The system comes in a lab version or a robotic online version.

  • Clearance Gauge - quick and accurate double seamer setup

    The Clearance Gauge allows you to set up a seamer easily and quickly while improving the quality of your seams. The system takes the guesswork out of seamer setup, improves the overall quality, reduces the amount and length of seamer stops and catches broken or worn tooling before it becomes a major problem.

  • CPA - Can Profile Analyzer

    There are a few contour meters or profiloscope solutions on the market. We are proud to have one of the most accurate non-contact laser profilers on the market. This system automatically detects many parameters from every single bead in the profile of the can. The scan takes no more than 8 seconds for the highest can and also includes the can height and flange width measurements as well.

    Contact gauges can either scratch, break, or provide a slightly inaccurate measurement due to the shape of the profiling pin. An optical non-contact laser profile is a much higher quality solution.

  • EPA - End Profile Analyzer

    The End Profile Analyzer measures external and internal parameters of a sanitary can end (or lid) including end curl specifications. The system utilizes a mixture of mechanical and optical mechanisms to provide the operator with all the critical end measurement information.

  • inROLL HR - High resolution roll and chuck gauge

    The inROLL 9000/HR is a non-contact laser profiling system which allows you to scan a profile of a roll, chuck or other toolings. The profile can be exported to AutoCAD, reverse engineered and analyzed (any radius, angle or distance). The system can compare profiles from new and used rolls, determine which model a particular profile belongs to, find duplicate roll designs and even compare the original diagram with the production scan.

  • Score Residual Gauge

    The Score Residual Gauge is an affordable and user-friendly system for measuring the residual and shape of easy open scores on any type of easy open end.

    NEW! The Score Residual Gauge now features Motorized PerfectFocusTM laser technology. The measurement is motor controlled and fully automatic and you can measure either one point or several points per end (each with its own specification) as well as profile the score groove and measure additional features.

  • BTE-100 - Buckle Tester for Seamed Ends

    The BTE-100 - Buckle Tester for Seamed Ends is an automatic, easy to use pressure tester for three-piece seamed cans. The system includes a computer with software that automatically detects the pressure points and displays the can deformation at each stage.

  • Symphony - measurement acquisition and Statistical Process Control

    Symphony is Quality By Vision's data collection and analysis software. The software can collect data from a variety of equipment, starting with Quality By Vision's own equipment, calipers, gauges, optical equipment and other tools.

    The data can be collected automatically, reviewed, reported, and analyzed via the free integrated SPC software. Reports and data can be imported and exported as necessary and the data can also be viewed remotely by a remote administrator or operator.

    Various online graphs can be generated, including an overview graph that can show you the live state of manufacturing throughout the company.

  • Welding Analyzer - ensure your welds are spot on!

    In order to ensure your Welding will hold, a welding analysis is critical. The Quality By Vision Welding Analyzer is a simple to learn system that measures Nuggets and Extrusions easily and accurately.

    Our unique lighting system allows both Nugget and Extrusion to be easily visible and measure them.

  • Body Blank Gauge

    High accuracy, repeatable gauge for measuring body blank Length, Width and Angle (squareness).

    The unit can be used either as standalone, or connected to Symphony SPC data collection software or other software compatible with RS232 data collection.

  • Seam Stripper for Food Cans

    The Seam Stripper for Food Cans can remove the coverhook from any size food can safely, quickly and without distorting the wrinkle, all with just one set of blades. This dramatically reduces the cost and complexity of the machine. There are no extra cutting heads to buy and maintain and it takes just seconds to switch from one can size to another.

  • SEAMetal HD - high definition double seam scope for food cans

    SEAMetal HD is the latest version of double seam scopes by Quality By Vision for three piece food cans. This latest version now introduces a High Definition (HDTV) view of the seam.

    This provides the highest accuracy and resolution of any seam inspection system ever made by Quality By Vision. This latest edition joins the SEAMetal family of products, already in use by hundreds of companies world wide.

    • Gauges and attachments for food cans

      Gauges and calipers for quality control for food cans are quite important. Quality By Vision offers high quality gauges of all types, all can be easily integrated automatically into our software.

    • Food saws

      Quality By Vision has a wide range of double seam sectioning saws ("bread saw") for food cans. Accurate cuts are an important part of the seam inspection process - bad cuts can have burrs or deform the seam so that the measurement will simply not be accurate. A proper saw should cause minimal deformation, operator should have the smallest amount of influence on the cut and the cuts should have no burrs or visible scarring!

    • SEAMetal HD - Statistical Process Control (SPC)

      SEAMetal HD's free SPC option is integrated right into the software, it is easy to use and learn. It provides powerful statistical analysis tools and allows operators and administrators alike to view and ensure quality is getting better, not worse...

      And of course, you can't beat the price!

    • 21 CFR 11 compliance

      FDA's 21 CFR 11 is an important guideline today for ensuring data integrity, security and authentication

    • SEAMetal HD Networking capabilities

  • SEAMetal 9000 MSD - semi automatic double seam analyzer - food

    SEAMetal semi-automatic is a low cost solution for customers requiring an accurate seam inspection system.

    This system offers most of the features of the full SEAMetal SD solution, but without the automatic detection module.

    • TBS-4A Automatic food Twin Blade Saw

      An automatic saw is no longer just a luxary few companies can afford. In order to accurately measure a can, or rely on SPC statistics, an identical cut must be produced regardless of which operator had made it.

      The stainless steel automatic saw not only prevents the operator from influencing the cut, but also ensures that the operator does not deform the seam during the cutting process.

    • TBS-4M Manual food can twin blade saw

      The manual food can stainless steel saw is our classic design and uses a stainless steel design to ensure it remains working for many years.

      This low cost solution is one of our best selling twin blade saw designs.

    • TBS-4PF Portable Twin Blade Saw

      The portable twin blade food can saw provides an easy way for technicians to move from one factory to another without relying on local saws for seam inspection.

      The saw is intended to be bundled with a portable version of our best selling SEAMetal system.

    • TBS-SM - low budget Manual food saw

      The "simple" food saw is a low cost solution for companies requiring a simple and inexpensive solution for cutting the seams for double seam inspection.

      Quality By Vision realizes not everyone needs a high end, high cost, saw and has provided this for those customers that need a lower cost solution. This saw is typically bundled with the SEAMetal MSD system.
