High-quality engine oils & lubricants are critical to machine maintenance and longevity of your engine. Using the wrong engine oil in an engine can have disastrous consequences, not only for the consumer, but for the manufacturer's reputation as a high-quality producer. Setting aside the immediate cost of a recall, the loss of shelf-space during a recall will negatively impact your business, along with potential for lawsuits from consumers.

A major manufacturer of engine oils and lubricants reviewed their current quality control program and decided there were improvements to be made. The manufacturer started a project to improve the quality of its product labeling, and began to investigate different inspection technologies.

Vision inspection from METTLER TOLEDO provides an opportunity to mitigate human error and avoid printing or equipment malfunctions. The most effective solution in preventing label mix-ups is to implement an automated vision inspection program. A vision inspection system can inspect 100% of the products on the line without reducing throughput while maintaining the highest level of accuracy possible. Automated vision inspection easily outstrips the detection rate of manual inspection, and with the right control software, a vision inspection system can quickly change over to new products.
