PACKAGE DATE-CODE VERIFICATION SYSTEM
Eliminate Date-Coding Mistakes on Cylinders, Cans, Boxes, Labels
Eliminate product holds, retailer rejections and recalls by ensuring that date-codes, best-buy dates, expiration dates, and other critical codes are present and correct on every product.
With 99% accuracy, you can have confidence every product shipped is coded correctly. Standard text verification systems often struggle to verify date-codes with wavy features, distortions, or non-standard text. Optical Character Recognition (OCV) inspection systems from EPIC eliminate this problem and can achieve accurate read rates at line speeds in excess of 1,000 products-per-minute.
