The Interpack, the leading trade fair for the packaging industry in Duesseldorf, drew to a close on 10 May 2017. Over a period of seven days, international exhibitors presented all the new items for the value creation chain in the packaging industry.

Packaging industry influences all branches of industry

The packaging industry is of prime important for all other branches of industry. No product is conceivable without the complex manufacturing processes. For this reason it is important for producers to ensure the quality of the products. Faulty product deliveries result in recalls and complaints, which cause high financial damages.

X-ray technology is ideal for securing product quality

For securing the quality of our customers’ products we presented our easySCOPE X-ray inspection system for inspecting packaged products at the Interpack. The X-ray appliance detects metallic and non-metallic contaminants such as glass, stones or plastics using an imaging technique – X-ray technology. However, other product defects can also be detected with the help of X-ray technology, such as the correct number of chocolates in a box or the ruling out or presence of sealing clips.

easySCOPE impresses with its price/performance ratio

The X-ray scanner impresses with its safety and reliability in the running process and saves time and money with its outstanding price/performance ratio. The inspection system is rounded off by simple operation and its high-quality, low-maintenance components plus extensive data management.

Great demand for multi-frequency technology

Our newly-developed multi-frequency technology was the subject of great demand at the trade fair booth. Optionally available for the METRON 07 CI high metal detector, this technology significantly reduces the work of setting up a metal detector, especially in the case of difficult products with a fluctuating product effect or packaging sizes.

New algorithm reduces work

With learning optimisation activated and the specification of a minimum detection standard to be adhered to, a new software algorithm determines – fully automatically – the maximum tolerance to any existing product fluctuations and disruptive influences. Furthermore, the detection accuracy determined thereby is displayed directly on the display after each learning process in the form of ball sizes for each type of metal.

Great interest in Mesutronic metal detection technology

The Interpack 2017 in Duesseldorf was a great success for us on account of the many interesting technical discussions and a large number of valuable contacts.

The next Mesutronic trade fair is the LIGNA in Hanover. At Booth H 46 in Hall 25 you can experience once again “Metal Detection Made in Germany” for the wood industry.
