Thermoformed packs: markings, codes, colour and geometry

Characters, barcodes and DataMatrix on thermoformed packs alongside product colour and geometry.

The challenge

A readable code can accompany a product with nonconforming shape or colour. The customer needed to check both printed identification and visible content features.

The inspection

Imago reads characters, barcodes and DataMatrix codes in the specified areas. Inspection also covers component colour and outline to detect deviations from the required geometry and appearance.
