Inspection systems Checkmat for fillers and cappers
All-around check for maximum safety and performance
Is the fill level in the bottle okay? Is the cap position straight? Does the tamper-evident ring justify its name? The Checkmat inspection systems give you a clear answer to each of these questions. For example by exactly checking the fill level of the various containers up to within one millimetre and by thoroughly scrutinizing the bottle caps from all sides – regardless whether these are crowns, plastic and aluminium screw caps or tethered caps.
Who is the ideal team partner for the Checkmat inspector? The Krones filler management solutions. They monitor and record important production data providing you with valuable knowledge about the best optimisation.
