Product Overview
Teledyne TapTone offers advanced package inspection systems designed for rapid product changeover, accommodating the evolving requirements of consumer packaged goods. Their systems are suitable for inspecting glass, metal, and plastic containers for leaks, vacuum/pressure, fill level, and vision inspection, either individually or in cases.
Leak Inspection Systems
TapTone provides various systems for leak inspection, including:
  • T100: Entry-level system for cans, bottles, and jars with multiple sensor options and a user-friendly interface.
  • T550: Newly redesigned system with a color touch screen and the ability to operate multiple sensors simultaneously.
  • T4000 HMI: Standard interface supporting multiple inspections with a color touch screen and multi-tier password protection.
  • T4000 PC: PC-based system for high throughput with enhanced data logging capabilities.
  • PRO Series: PC-based "plug and play" interface supporting multiple independent sensors.
User Interface Options
TapTone systems offer various user interfaces, including menu-driven keypads, color touch screens, and PC-based systems, all designed for ease of use and quick product changeover.
Proven Technologies
TapTone employs several technologies for container inspection:
  • Proximity Technology: Measures pressure or vacuum in containers with metal closures by assessing lid deflection.
  • Acoustic Technology: Measures pressure or vacuum in containers with metal closures without measurable lid deflection.
  • Compression Technology: Detects leaks in flexible plastic containers by compressing the container's headspace.
  • Force Technology: Inspects pressure in LN2 dosed or carbonated containers.
Specifications
TapTone systems are constructed with stainless steel and can inspect up to 2,000 containers per minute. They are designed for both floor and conveyor mounting, with various sensor configurations available for different container types and inspection needs.
Case System
The T4000 Case system offers non-contact, non-destructive inspection for metal cans or glass jars with metal closures. It can detect defects such as missing containers, broken bottles, and damaged cans, with options for acoustic or proximity inspection.

TapTone Model Number Container Types Acoustic Sensor For closures with no measurable deflection Acoustic technology is used to measure pressure or vacuum in containers with metal closures that do not have a measurable lid deflection. Can be configured with an optional proximity sensor for cocked crown detection. Used primarily on metal crowns and ROPP closures. Proximity Sensor For metal closures with deflection Proximity technology measures pressure or vacuum in containers with metal closures by measuring the lid deflection. Used primarily for canned products or metal button up lids. Metal Plastic...

Case System Case Inspection for Metal Cans or Glass Jars with Metal Closures The T4000 Case system is designed for non-contact, non-destructive, 100% automatic container inspection through a sealed cardboard and/or shrink wrapped case. The system offers the option of acoustic or proximity technology to inspect glass jars with metal closures or metal cans for pressure or vacuum after the containers have been sealed in the case. In many applications, the T4000 Case system will detect defects other than low pressure or vacuum. Some examples are missing containers, containers with missing lids or...
