Z345 Automatic Colour Inspection Gauge (powered by X-Rite®)

Torus’ Z345 is the first automatic colour inspection gauge powered by X-Rite®.

The Z345 is capable of inspecting 202-300 body diameter, straight walled and finished cans with minimal change parts. Cans may be loaded in any orientation, either on to an automatic in-feed conveyor or directly from the production line. A high-resolution colour-scan camera reads and ‘unwraps’ the label and aligns it to a master image. The can is then accurately presented to the Ci64 for inspection at pre-defined, user selected locations with unmatched positional repeatability.
