What it inspects

  • Neck finish — cracks, chips and abrasions.
  • Bottle bottom — foreign objects and structural defects.
  • Full 360° sidewall inspection with the optional Sidewalls module.

Integration

EBI is fully autonomous, supports PET and glass containers, integrates onto any bottling line and handles a wide range of codes and formats.

EBS vs EBI

EBS sorts dirty returned bottles before the wash; EBI checks washed bottles before the fill. They do different jobs on opposite sides of the washer and are typically used together on reusable-bottle lines.
