TapTone® FSB

FORCE TECHNOLOGY Bringing Pressure Inspection to New Heights The TapTone Force Stainless (FSB) has all of the features and inspection capabilities of our standard FS system but is designed to accommodate conveyor heights up to 1.96 m (77 in). The system inspects 100% of containers at production line speeds and is manufactured with a stainless steel transport system for harsh environments. Reinforced side plates give extra rigidity for high pressure applications and allow for a stable reading with excellent resolution. The system can alternatively be fit with a mid-range or low range pressure sensor for applications that require all-stainless steel construction. Force Stainless Stainless steel construction and reinforced side plates make the FSB the ideal system for high pressure and high speed applications, where conveyor height is a challenge. • Rapid on-line inspection: up to 2.67 m/sec (525 ft/min) maximum • Pressure/Leak inspection in carbonated or LN2 dosed beverage cans • Easy operation & product set-up using a large color touch screen and icon driven menus • Pressure/Leak inspection in carbonated or LN2 dosed plastic containers • Controlled access to system features with multi-level passwords • Pressure/Leak inspection in LN2 dosed retorted dairy based drinks • Combined inspections on a single controller: run up to 4 primary inspections • Pressure/Leak inspection in aerosol cans with gas propellents • Reject and sort with 2 independently operated reject outputs • Pressure inspection in aerosol cans with liquid propellent • Meets CE requirements, UL and CUL approved • Pressure/Leak inspection in containers with internal pressure up to 11 bar or 160 psi • Designed to fit conveyor heights up to 1.96 cm (77 in) How It Works Force Technology Detects leaks and low pressure in LN2 dosed containers, carbonated beverage containers and aerosol containers. Parallel belts transport the container past a sensor that measures the tension on the sidewall of the container. This action allows the system to measure the pressure inside the container. Utilizing DSP technology, the controller analyzes the measurement and assigns a merit value to each container. If the merit value is outside of the acceptable range, a reject signal activates a remote reject system and the container is removed from the line.
