Sensor Technology Application in Food Packaging

[China Packaging Network News] As food safety issues have become increasingly prominent, China has paid more and more attention to food safety, so it puts forward refined requirements for food packaging inspection technology. In the past, China's food packaging manufacturers neglected the application of food packaging inspection technology. Compared with the improvement of overall performance, food packaging inspection technology will have more room for development. Sensing technology plays an important role in food packaging detection technology, including the collection of food packaging size, location and so on.

However, the food packaging industry has high requirements. It is necessary to meet the requirements of mechanical engineers, manufacturers, distributors and end-users, but also to meet the requirements of a globally expanding, regional but diverse market. At the same time, it also meets stringent official requirements (such as health regulations) and follows the ever-changing concept of new packaging and frequent changes in packaging styles.

Test Integrity: After assembling a product manually, check its integrity.

Balluff offers you a viable solution to meet these challenges flexibly: it can be used throughout the industry and in various branch areas as well as primary, secondary and end-packaged sensors and systems, networks and connection technologies. In addition to product quality and flexibility, market rules are also crucial. Due to the enormous pressure of market competition, economic efficiency has become the first factor to be considered. Balluff's sensors and equipment use the latest technology to make the concept of a mature industrial system possible. Even for a wide variety of product lines, these sensors and devices ensure easy operation and minimize setup time. This enables high-speed processing of ever-increasing shapes and sizes. With high output and reduced costs, you get maximum productivity and maximum value.

Whether it is a metal can, a container bottle, a vial, a tube or a double-bubble package used in primary packaging, a bag used in the secondary packaging stage, a packaging box, or a tray used in a terminal package, Balluff is Ability to perform efficient, reliable and accurate inspections.

Initial packaging is an area that involves the most variety and highest requirements. Balluff's filling liquefaction sensors for positioning and filling, connection, marking, detection and sealing operations, as well as for packaging fluids or solid materials into flasks and beverage bottles, or when encapsulated in blister bottles This ensures maximum flexibility and precise measurement of the operation, and completes the process extremely reliably. With Balluff's products, you can complete the entire packaging process correctly, reliably, and efficiently and in every detail. As Balluff can meet high demands, Balluff's products can be used even in sensitive areas. With our vision sensors, you can easily detect and read barcodes, tracking and tracking, and access controls.

The filling liquefaction sensor BTL-SF ensures continuous accurate measurement in applications with extremely high hygiene requirements. The sensor is made of stainless steel with anti-corrosion properties. It has excellent surface quality and rounded edges, meets the highest international hygiene standards and meets all the stringent requirements of the food industry.
