AutoCoding Systems is building on its factory automation solutions through a partnership with Inspection Systems.

The formalised agreement will give customers more access to advanced packaging line solutions, according to the company.

Inspection Systems’ equipment helps manufacturers comply with government regulations and mitigate their risk by detecting and removing contaminants before products leave the factory.

AutoCoding Systems delivers factory automation solutions, and has experience with coding and packaging verification and data integrity on the packaging line, reducing the need for operator intervention and minimising the risk of coding and packaging errors.

AutoCoding’s software integrates with coding, labelling and inspection equipment, including the full range of Loma equipment distributed by Inspection Systems.

The recently developed AutoCoding Inspection Reporting tool, which is available from Inspection Systems, enables manufacturers to monitor the performance of multiple checkweighers, metal detectors and X-ray equipment. It provides access to real-time statistics allowing efficiencies to be identified and addressed proactively.

Information relating to contaminant detection rates, weight and overfill can be collated quickly and corrective action taken, where necessary.

The two companies are already working on joint projects to provide customers with a seamless system of monitoring and reporting across packaging lines.
