Pouch Packaging

Packaging - Pouch Packaging

A variety of products are packaged in pouches in the cosmetics and especially the food industry, for example pouch soups and desserts. Prints of the best-before date, lot etc. are printed promptly after filling and their legibility is inspected. The integrity of the packaging material is also worth inspecting.

Recommended inspection systems for the inspection of pouch packaging

Marking on bags is usually done by means of barcodes and plain text, for which the SIGNUM HR print inspection is optimised. With mechanically optimised use of light cameras, these can be moved in parallel with the printer and thus ensure quality directly after print. Alternatively, a large film width can be completely inspected by installing several cameras.

Aluminium foil to be filled can also be inspected before forming by means of the opto-electrical FOCON Pore Detection Unit.
