Machine Vision Systems For Cigarette Packaging Solutions

System description

Inspection principle

The processing process of cigarette products in the modern sense is very complicated. The entire cigarette production process has the characteristics of high speed, automation, and large batches, and there will inevitably be many defects that cannot be taken care of by manpower.

Manual inspection is completely unable to undertake the high-speed inspection tasks of modern production lines. Unqualified products flow to the next process and are packaged and boxed, which will reduce user satisfaction and also weaken brand value and product credibility.

Machine vision application

Machine vision technology, which combines the rapidity, reliability, repeatability of results and ability to analyze image information of computers, is currently the most widely used and effective detection technology in the tobacco industry.

Today's high-speed, accurate, stable, delicate, and most advanced machine vision systems, quality control methods are being upgraded step by step. With the help of machine vision for automation, the development of quality control has taken a big step forward, and the application of automation in industrial production has been truly realized.

Tobacco Visual Inspection Solution

Program overview

The image information is collected by high-resolution equipment such as CCD industrial cameras and zoom lenses. After being digitized by the processor, the visual inspection equipment can evaluate its color, surface and size. Realize the decoding from features to image information, and complete the precise identification of tobacco production, silk making process in packaging, coiling process, packaging process, etc.

Application Scenario

1. Tobacco leaf feature detection: accurately identify the shape, color, texture and other characteristics of tobacco leaves.

2. Impurity detection: Accurately identify impurities such as shredded cardboard, shredded cartons, and hemp rope mixed in tobacco leaves.

3. Cigarette package inspection: Under high-speed production speed, it can accurately identify abnormalities such as missing sticks, missing mouthpieces, reversed sticks, missing or deformed filter tips in cigarette packages to ensure the quality of cigarette packages.

4. Supply chain detection: Accurately read the QR code and unique characters on the cigarette packaging when the packaging line is moving at high speed, so as to effectively trace the cigarette supply chain.

5. Cigarette box inspection: identify whether the cigarette box is completely sealed, check whether the wrapping paper is torn or not, and remove unqualified packages from the production line.

The application of machine vision in the tobacco industry can extend from the cigarette factory upwards to the supply of raw materials, and downwards to the storage, transportation and distribution of cigarettes, including the expansion of cigarette-related industries, such as printing of cigarette packs, film paper, tipping paper and Testing of other excipients. In the near future, machine vision technology will be more widely used in the tobacco industry, to improve the technical level and production of the industry
