Vial & Ampoule Body Inspection

Detect cracks, scratches, bubbles, and inclusions on transparent containers

Overview

Detect cracks, scratches, bubbles, black spots, inclusions on transparent/curved containers.

Stabilize illumination (coaxial/darkfield as needed) and train segmentation for true defect masks.

Key Capabilities

Crack detection: Identify hairline cracks and stress fractures in glass

Surface defect detection: Scratches, scuffs, and contamination on glass surfaces

Bubble & inclusion detection: Glass defects like air bubbles and dark spots

Recommended camera: OV80i for high-resolution glass inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What lighting works best for glass inspection?

Darkfield illumination highlights cracks and scratches. Coaxial lighting can reveal surface defects. Backlit setups help detect inclusions. We help you specify the right configuration.

Can it inspect curved vial surfaces?

Yes. The OV80i's high resolution combined with proper lighting can inspect curved glass surfaces. Train on your specific vial geometry.

How does it distinguish defects from normal glass features?

Train the model on examples of acceptable glass appearance (mold marks, embossing) vs true defects. It learns texture and appearance patterns to separate them.
