SEAMetal HD - high definition seam scope for food cans
Can makers are constantly under pressure to downgauge, reduce can and end material thickness and increase production speed. This means that there are now more seaming issues than ever before!
Increasing the amount of seam scans is not the solution. After all, checking more cans will not help you produce even one can better - it'll just put a bigger strain on your budget. That's why high accuracy, fast and repeatable seam scopes are now needed more than ever.
SEAMetal HD is the third generation of double seam vision systems by Quality By Vision. We've never stopped improving and developing this system since 1993, when we produced the world's first computerized fully automatic seam scope: SEAMetal 9000X.
Fifteen years in the making, this latest system introduces an integrated High-Definition video camera, providing an unprecedented look at the seam. You can now see the image better and get a much more accurate and repeatable measurement!
The system runs under Windows 2000/XP and Vista and connects to the computer using USB.
In third party customer GR&R testing, this system was found to have "world class" GR&R ratings!
