Gridbots PanaView

360 Degree Inspection System for High Speed Extrusion Lines

Gridbots PanaView is a fully automatic, online 360 degree inspection system for high speed extrusion and blow moulding lines. It inspects bottles, containers and tubes for moulding defects, seal integrity and fill level at speeds of up to 600 parts per minute.

Three cameras give full 360 degree side coverage and a fourth camera inspects from the top. Every part is checked all the way around its body, shoulder, neck, orifice and seal area, so no defect is hidden on the side facing away from the camera.

The system detects moulding defects such as short mould, flashes, blocked or partially blocked orifice, neck bend, orifice flash, black particles, colour variation, shrinkage, stretch marks, missing threads, contamination and foreign particles. It also checks for missing, misaligned or improperly closed seals, and for under-filled or over-filled bottles.

An easy-to-use GUI with user, data and recipe management lets operators set tolerance levels for each defect. The system is IoT ready. Each machine sends its inspection data to a local cloud server, where data from multiple lines can be viewed remotely. Alerts and trends are generated in real time.

PanaView mounts on an available station of the extrusion, blow moulding or tube manufacturing machine, including PACKSYS Global and ASIA machines. Its rejection system is integrated with the machine, so defective parts are removed before they reach the packer.

Inspection Capabilities

Every part is inspected for moulding quality, seal and fill level in a single pass. A part that fails any check is rejected automatically, and its defect image is saved for review.

Inspection	Defects Detected	Camera
Moulding Defect Inspection	Short mould, flashes, parting line flash, shrinkage, stretch marks, thin or uneven wall, deformation, damaged parts and size variation	3 side cameras (360°)
Neck, Orifice and Thread Inspection	Blocked orifice, partially blocked orifice, orifice flash, neck bend, missing or damaged threads, reverse shoulder	Top camera + side cameras
Seal Detection	Missing seal, misaligned or tilted seal, incomplete or wrinkled seal, improperly closed cap, seal damage	Top camera + side cameras
Level Detection	Under-filled and over-filled bottles, compared with the set fill height for each recipe	Side cameras
Contamination and Colour	Black particles, black specks, foreign particles, contamination and colour variation	3 side cameras (360°) + top camera

Applications

Product	Typical Industries	Key Checks
Extrusion Blow Moulded Bottles	Pharma, FMCG, Personal Care, Agrochemical, Lubricants	Moulding defects, neck and thread, seal, fill level
Containers and Jars	Food, Dairy, Household Chemicals	Moulding defects, contamination, seal, fill level
Laminated and Plastic Tubes	Oral Care, Cosmetics, Pharma Ointments	Shoulder, orifice, neck, lip, reverse shoulder

Defect Classification

The AI classifies every defect into major categories, so you can see which area of the mould or process is causing rejections.

Orifice & Lip

Neck & Shoulder

Body & Moulding

Seal & Fill Level

Advantages Over Manual Inspection

At 600 parts per minute, operators can only check a small sample by eye, and they see just one side of each part. PanaView inspects every part, all the way around, at full line speed.

True 360° Coverage

Three side cameras and one top camera see the whole part. Defects on the back of the bottle are not missed.

Full Line Speed

Inspects up to 600 parts per minute in line, so you don't have to slow the extrusion machine down for quality checks.

100% Inspection

Every bottle and tube is inspected, instead of a random sample that lets defective parts reach your customer.

Seal and Level Assurance

Missing seals and under-filled bottles are caught before dispatch, avoiding leakage, short-weight complaints and recalls.

Consistent Quality

The same tolerance is applied to every part on every shift. No variation between operators, no drop in accuracy from fatigue.

Faster Process Correction

Real-time defect classification and trends show which mould cavity or process step is causing defects, so it can be fixed quickly.

Data and Traceability

Production, inspected and rejected counts with defect images are logged for every batch and visible remotely through IoT.

Lower Labour Cost

One system replaces manual inspectors at the end of each line. Staff can be moved to higher-value work.
