Robotic Human-Like Inspection Unit Has AI-Based Machine Learning Capabilities

Italy-based Stevanato Group, a leading producer of glass primary packaging and provider of integrated capabilities for drug delivery systems, has launched a modular, robotic inspection system that incorporates artificial intelligence (AI) with accrued machine learning capabilities.

The company’s Vision Robot Unit (VRU) is an autonomous module capable of automatically inspecting both cosmetic and particle properties without human intervention. The VRU’s island design comprises a plug & play concept with a freely configurable infeed and outfeed. It is also scalable, as multiple vision inspection units can be added to increase throughput. Its no glass-to-glass inspection process reduces the likelihood of product damage or breakage.
