dsound Acoustic Sensor Technology made in Germany cap check assuring jam quality Jam quality is essentially determined by colour, taste, consistency and smell. Proper packaging has to make sure that these quality traits are preserved. Cap Check monitors the integrity of jam jars in order to keep constant high quality and to create customer satisfation in the long run. Cap Check Similar to an MRI, Cap Check subjects jars with metal caps to an acoustic leak tightness test. A contact-free excitation procedure with high-performance signal processing anaylses the metal cap‘s resonance which is conditioned by internal pressure. Patent-pending Cap Check detects even slight pressure deviations. Technical data Measuring principle Type Output Access Power supply Weight Dimension Outlet Protection degree Material Acoustic resonance measurement with magnetic excitation Line-integrable, also available as stand-alone version 72000 jars per hour CAN and USB interface Digital switching output using a display with good/bad indication Real-time diagnostics and statistics function 24 V (20V ...30 V), 0.4 A, DC Appr. 1770 g Appr. 270 x 260 x 130 (in mm) Electric outlet via M12 connector IP 67 Stainless steel, POM, two-component PU grouting Application • Jar‘s leak tightness • Integrated inductive proximity measurement • Detection of improperly capped jars • Detection of damaged glass Benefits • Enclosed construction for simple cleaning • Wear-free working method • Cost-efficient compared to other measuring methods The experts of the company can look back on 20 years of experience within the field of sensor based measuring methods for conducting quality controls. A team of engineers developed Cap Check in only 30 months. This system solves fundamental and well-known problems in terms of process stability within packaging control. The MM Award Innovation Prize of 2014 for a prototype shows the value of this system. ds automation gmbh MettenheimerstraBe 2 • 19061 Schwerin telephone +49 (0)385 20840-0 • fax +49 (0)385 20840-10 e-mail info@dsautomation.de • web www.schallsensor.de www. schallsensor. de/en © 2013 ds a at man oo ombh
