In our latest case study, we showcase how Elementary's AI-powered vision inspection solution transformed the packaging process for a prominent American dairy manufacturer. By implementing our state-of-the-art technology, the company was able to overcome challenges associated with manual inspection and traditional machine vision systems, ensuring consistent quality and packaging integrity for their premium yogurt products.
The dairy manufacturer faced issues with lid placement and expiration date code accuracy on their yogurt tubs. Despite having a dedicated quality control team, defects were slipping through the cracks, and the manual inspection process couldn't keep up with the growing production demands. Hiring more personnel was not a cost-effective or efficient solution, and traditional machine vision systems lacked the flexibility to adapt to frequent packaging design changes and variations in code placement.
Elementary's AI vision inspection system provided the perfect solution. Our technology was quickly deployed, integrating seamlessly into the production line. The AI-powered cameras and sensors were able to inspect thousands of yogurt tubs daily, accurately identifying defects such as missing lids, illegible codes, and poor printing quality, while intelligently adapting to multiple SKUs and minor variations in packaging design.
To meet the strict food safety and cleanliness standards, Elementary engineers collaborated with a custom sanitary welding provider to create a food-safe electronics enclosure. This innovative housing protected the cameras, sensors, and lighting equipment during nightly washdowns, ensuring the system's longevity and reliability in a demanding production environment.
In addition to automating the inspection process, Elementary's solution provided valuable analytics and insights. By collecting data on millions of yogurt tubs, the system helped identify trends and root causes of recurring defects, empowering the dairy manufacturer to make data-driven decisions and improve their processes.
