In Europe - so many labels, so little time...just use Checker |
Dutch group, OTE, produce and export various fluids for the lens care market. They deliver more than 1000 private labels to customers with their own brands. Delivering the finished products all over the world, they need to be sure that all bottles reach their destinations in perfect condition and in good time.
Facing the strict requirements of the medical and pharmaceutical industry plus the need to improve their quality control which was assured manually, the company decided to use the Checker from Cognex to ensure that the production code is present and also to check if the label is on the bottle.
