Eight Marposs VisiQuick machines installed at Verallia

Glass packaging producer Verallia purchased eight VisiQuick machines for container measuring at its plants in France.

Marposs has successfully installed eight VisiQuick machines for glass container measurement in several Verallia plants in France.

The machines were delivered and installed in the first half of 2021.

VisiQuick is a flexible measuring machine that can process any kind of container, without job change.

Glass packaging producer Verallia chose the full optional configuration to measure external dimensions, weight, push-up, bore diameter and profile, wall thickness and labelling area profile (sinks and bulges) with an optical system patented by Marposs.

The VisiQuick machines were supplied with multiple infeed conveyors to autonomously measure, in sequence, different batches of articles.

Based on the number of infeed conveyors, the machine can work 4–6 hours without the operator’s attendance.

Containers to be measured are loaded on the conveyors and are automatically processed by the machine.

After measurement, they can be delivered to an accumulation table, a scrap chute or to another machine to carry out other controls, for example an automatic pressure tester or capacity measurement system.

The co-operation between Verallia and Marposs began a few years ago and the glassmaker is now operating 12 VisiQuick machines in its French plants. “The partnership with Verallia made both companies grow,” reported Eleonora Bordini, International Industry Manager for Marposs.
