Preform Transfer Handling vision control [2104]

An inspection module is located at the oven outlet to detect mis-gripped preforms that may cause frequent transfer issues like preform dropping 
at oven outlet or mold not locked default, leading to blower critical stoppage.

• detected mis-gripped preforms are ejected at preform transfer as a faulty preform.
• PTH vision control can be fitted with Pressco S5i or SIS-V6  or  SSV Cognex camera, depending on blower existing configuration or generation.
• software version upgrade may be required, with potential hardware upgrade.
• includes set of black coated preform grippers.

Lightweight neck and/or R-PET conversion can bring random issues, resulting in preform tilting or shaking when unloaded from spindle.

with PTH Vision control,

- Avoid blower downgraded behavior due to frequent critical crashes.
- Information at HMI about spindle and transfer arm number involved in mis-gripping, to ease preventive maintenance / troubleshooting action.
