Olmec-UK, a Vision Systems Integrator, has collaborated with the Italy-based packaging machine maker, Marchesini, to come out with a vision system to address a packaging inspection problem for the healthcare industry customers.
Marchesini sales manager-UK Andy Long said it was commissioned to build a cartoning machine for a of healthcare products supplier in the UK.
Marchesini said one of these components had to made for a third party, which was already packaged in its own plastic packet, and their company had to verify as to whether this component was the proper one to accompany the product in the carton, besides checking it for defects.
"We worked very closely together, and Olmec were happy to send engineers to Italy to work with us on the successful testing and commissioning of the final system," said Long.
