The Solution to Embossed Code Inspection

Optel Vision, the leading provider of Inspection, Integration & Service for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and cosmetic vision inspection applications, is very proud to present at Pack Expo International 2006, its latest vision inspection software tool:
The Optel Vision Embossed Code Verification Tool.

The Optel Vision Embossed Code Tool allows for complete inspection and verification of embossed variable data such as Braille, product names, symbologies and etc. on a wide range of substrates. The Braille labeling requirement on all pharmaceutical products in Europe, coupled with the increase in use of embossed codes as product packaging identification or as security features have been the driving force behind the development of this new vision inspection tool.

Embossed codes can be found on a variety of products, such as foil pouches, vial crimps and secondary paper packaging. Accurate inspection of embossed codes first requires enhanced lighting for accurate image acquisition, followed by specialized algorithms for inspection analysis. "Simply offering a software tool for such an application is only part of the answer," stated Louis Roy, president of Optel Vision. "To really provide a solution, companies must be willing and capable of furnishing all the necessary elements such as optimal lighting, when it comes to complex applications such as embossed code inspection," he added.

This tool is also easily combined with other inspection capabilities such as the Optel Vision Optical Character Verification Tool, the Optel Vision Serialization Tool and etc. As an added benefit to companies, Optel Vision selects, combines and optimizes all necessary application specific tools on a project-to-project basis and preconfigures most of them prior to delivery of the system.

With its close to 20 years of experience and its growing line of vision inspection solutions, Optel Vision will continue to build on its reputation for excellence and reliability on an international level and will continue to meet the challenges and the needs of today's and tomorrow's companies by providing them the very best in: Inspection, Integration & Service.
