Plastic Film Contamination Inspection
High-speed detection of gels, contaminants, and foreign matter
The challenge
A plastic film manufacturer needed to detect gels, black specks, and foreign matter in their extruded film at high line speeds. Undetected contamination was causing customer complaints and product returns.
Our solution
We deployed a line scan camera system with precision backlighting optimized for transparent and translucent film inspection. Our software platform provides real-time defect detection, classification by type and size, and automated reporting for every roll produced.
Results
- Detection of gels, contaminants, and foreign matter at full line speed
- Automated defect classification by type and size
- Roll-by-roll quality reporting and data archiving
- Significant reduction in customer complaints
