Visual quality control system PouchChek

Product Overview: PouchChek is an inline heat-seal inspection system for packaging lines that captures simultaneous thermal and visible images and overlays them on a 22-inch monitor to reveal seal defects not detectable by eye.

Key Benefits:

• Real-time verification of heat-seal application to maintain consistent sealing process settings across production runs.
• Automated defect management with customizable alerts and automatic rejection to reduce returns and downtime.
• Comprehensive traceability via detailed image logging and secure job storage for quality documentation and audits.

How PouchChek Works:
The system inspects each package at full production speed, comparing thermal patterns to programmed quality parameters. Detected defects trigger configurable actions (marking or ejection) and all thermal and visible images are stored for review. Inspection is non-destructive and can be adapted to specific pouch geometries and seal types.

Advanced Detection Capabilities:
Complete Heat Verification
Verifies correct heat distribution across critical sealing zones using precision thermal imaging.
Multi-Defect Detection

Detects quality issues including:

• Misalignment
• Incorrect heat zones
• Debris contamination
• Excessive heat application
• Zipper crush/damage
• Missing or incomplete seals

Expandable System
Add cameras for wider coverage and multi-angle inspection as production needs grow.

Integration & Operation
Designed for seamless integration with existing packaging lines. Operates at full line speed and supports automated rejection, marking and secure job storage for full traceability and QA workflows.
