Konatic introduces ‘Innerscan,’ a revolutionary measuring device designed to accurately gauge the internal profile of glass wine bottles at both hot and cold ends.
In a significant advancement for the glass manufacturing industry, Konatic has launched ‘Innerscan,’ an innovative measuring solution tailored for the precise assessment of the internal profile of glass wine bottles. Whether performed manually or automatically at the hot-end or cold-end, monitoring the internal profile is a crucial aspect of glass plant operations.
Designed to transcend the limitations of manual measurements and serve as a comprehensive alternative to traditional laboratory devices, Innerscan stands out as a user-friendly device equipped with a motorized head and open protocols. This allows seamless recording and automatic transfer of data to the Manufacturing Execution System (MES). The device is poised to streamline the measurement process, ensuring accuracy and efficiency.
One of the standout features of Innerscan is its ability to take quick and precise measurements of a glass bottle’s profile, even when freshly produced and at temperatures of up to 100°C. This capability sets it apart as an invaluable tool for real-time assessment during the manufacturing process.
Innerscan has already been integrated and is operational within manufacturing facilities. Its framework draws from the success and expertise gained from Konatic’s previous machines developed for hot-end and laboratory environments, including the Precision Reader (datamatrix reader at hot-end) and NANO (hot-end coating measurement without index fluid in the laboratory).
The user-friendly nature of Innerscan, combined with its advanced features, positions it as a game-changer in the glass manufacturing landscape. With the capability to enhance precision and efficiency, Innerscan represents a vital step forward in the pursuit of excellence within the industry.
