FAQs
What is the difference between an OCV system and an OCR system?
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a method for identifying printed characters on a package surface. OCR is ideal for variable text fields, where it may not be possible to know what text string will be on the production line. The tool compares a given character image against all the characters in a pre-defined font to find the closest match.
Optical Character Verification (OCV), on the other hand, is looking for a pre-defined value – it is used to check for the accuracy of a code rather than determine what a code is.
OCV and OCR technology can be used in manufacturing facilities for quality checks - for example, as part of a product inspection program that includes package data quality inspection in the food and beverage industry. Machine vision inspection manufacturers such as METTLER TOLEDO CI-Vision offer vision inspection systems with OCV and OCR capabilities for printed data and code verification requirements.
Can OCV systems from METTLER TOLEDO handle variations in label materials or printing processes?
METTLER TOLEDO OCV systems are designed for versatility. They have the flexibility handle the diverse materials and printing methods encountered in real-world production lines. They can be configured to account for variations in label materials, such as the reflectivity of glossy labels or the texture of shrink wrap sleeves. Additionally, the systems can be programmed to accommodate different printing processes, whether it's inkjet, laser, or thermal printing, for consistent and reliable label data inspection every time.
Can OCV systems be used to collect data for label optimization?
Yes, OCV systems can be a valuable tool for data collection. By analyzing the types of label defects that are detected during production, recurring issues can be quickly identified, and labeling processes can be adjusted and optimized to minimize future errors. This data-driven approach can lead to cost savings, boosted productivity, and improved label quality.
Do OCV systems offer multi-language capabilities for label inspection?
Our OCV systems feature advanced character recognition software. This allows them to recognize and inspect labels with text in any language, catering to a globalized market and providing accurate inspection regardless of the language used.
