IMD Product News & Exhibitions
K 2019, Düsseldorf, Germany:
First inline calibrated bottle measuring and inspection system
We will present our new bottle inspection system to the industry at the K-Show 2019. Some people are calling it a “game changer”…why? Come and see how a very complex and shiny bottle looks like when we take an image of it, and you will understand.
That we can measure with a repeatability of +/- 5μm is just as exciting…
The IMDvista BOCO SCAN, 100% developed, designed and produced in Switzerland, will be on display at the IMD booth in Hall 10 / A03.

Some Highlights of the new IMDvista BOCO SCAN System
- First inline calibrated measurement and inspection system solution
- Same system for transparent, opaque, shiny and matte bottles
- Wide range of bottle designs
- Fast changeover with automatic product change – no mechanical size parts
- Easy teach in and self-learn functions for new bottle types
- Easy and fast integration in your existing production line

BOCO SCAN is the latest development in bottle inspection technology. Using high-resolution cameras and advanced illumination, BOCO SCAN is able to inspect the most complex bottle geometries, shapes and colors, regardless of whether the bottle is opaque HDPE or clear PET, shiny or matte.
IMDs advanced V5 software includes reflection suppression, automatic setup wizard and Neuron artificial intelligence, allowing the complete bottle to be inspected while virtually eliminating false rejects.
BOCO SCAN offers precise thread measurements, for both HDPE and PET, by utilizing special cameras, lenses and lighting.
The automatic change-over feature does not require any additional hardware when changing between bottles, regardless of the bottle material.
The new BOCO SCAN is designed to easily fit over your existing line.
