Crescendo
Overview
The Crescendo is a dual beam side view X-ray inspection system that is specifically designed for inspecting taller rigid containers (e.g. glass jars, metal and composite cans, plastic containers and boxes) including number 10 cans.
The Crescendo’s two metal ceramic tubes deliver 1200 watts of X-ray power with the secondary X-ray tube being electronically controlled for height adjustment to allow precise inspection of the upper part of a container.
On metal cans, the Crescendo provides a clear image of the top seam.
The Crescendo also offers superior fill height measurement capability.
Features
Modular Design
All subsystems have been designed with the maximum system availability, redundancy, and fault tolerance in mind
Fill Level Measurement
High precision fill-level and headspace monitoring
Real-Time Remote Support
Integrated wireless connectivity allows for secure remote support 24/7 globally. Peco InspX can resolve over 95% of customer issues with our powerful remote diagnostics software
Robust IT Security
Fully integrated end-to-end IT security offerings ensure your networks aren’t vulnerable and are defended from any outside threats. Optional IoT module allows for seamless SCADA integration
Advanced X-ray Tube/Detector Design
High contrast X-ray tube with independent power supply allows for lowest cost of ownership. Detector hardened against wear to maximize the component lifetime
No Requirement for Container Spacing
This inspection geometry does not require any container spacing between adjacent containers
Dual X-ray Beams
The Crescendo offers 1200 watts of X-ray power with a vertically adjustable second tube. This design allows the Crescendo to image the largest containers without compromising inspection quality
High Reliability Non-Contact Inspection
Mounts over the top of the customer’s existing conveyor, eliminating conveyor transfers into the machine for inspection. This design minimizes risk against conveyor jams over transfer points
Typical Applications
Large Cans
Plastic Jugs and Pails
Large Boxed Foods
Glass Jars & Jugs
High Speed Operations
