Glass Containers - Food and Beverage

Manage the risk of glass packaging with multi-beam advanced X-Ray inspection systems.

Glass containers offer an array of consumer benefits. However they also pose some real challenges in container manufacturing and food and beverage operations in the form of defects. During manufacturing, glass containers can incur a host of defects that are serious food safety risks – including material cracks, chips, wall inclusions and more esoteric defects like bird swings. Dangerous glass shards can be accidentally introduced to containers during operations. Because of this risk, every glass container should be inspected.

Peco InspX partners with glass manufacturers, packagers and end-customers to make sure their products are defect-free. We understand the ins-and-outs of the glass making process; considering unique factors such as mold variation and container handling. The net result is a fully designed system that exceeds specifications leveraging unique X-ray inspection technologies.

Whether your glass container is a small medicine vial or a gallon jar of whole pickles, full container inspection with X-ray will ensure a defect-free product. Inspection of the threaded and finish areas of both jars and bottles – from short to tall – facilitates a smooth capping and closure process and the ability to protect end-users from dangerous chips in drinking areas.
