Advanced laboratory equipment for comprehensive quality testing, coating measurement, and internal profile analysis.

INNERSCAN
Designed specifically for wine bottles, the InnerScan evaluates interior profiles from the neck down to a depth of 50mm with high precision. This durable unit captures data automatically and offers the flexibility to be deployed either in the laboratory or directly at the hot end for rapid checks.

NANO
The NANO measures hot-end coating thickness with nanometer-level precision without requiring any indexing fluid (oil-free). This technology allows for a high volume of measurements and a complete 360° evaluation of the treatment, approved by industry leaders like CETIE, O-I, and VETROPACK.

PRECISION
Installed directly at the hot end, the Precision reader acts as a high-tech microscope for Datamatrix codes. It enables early detection of engraving deviations or quality issues in CO2 laser systems, ensuring meticulous inspection and code readability before the annealing process begins.

FUSION MACHINA
Distributed exclusively by Konatic, the Fusion Machina automates the counting of seeds and bubbles, eliminating laborious manual microscope work. It delivers unmatched consistency and rapid data to optimize furnace management and overall glass quality efficiently.

TIN READER
The Tin Reader is a revolutionary hand-held device that measures tin oxide coating on bottles immediately at the hot end. By eliminating the traditional 45-minute cooling wait, it provides instant feedback on hot containers of any color or thickness, drastically reducing production waste and reaction time.

Advanced code reading technology for complete bottle traceability, quality control, and datamatrix reading at any production stage.

HEXAGON
The Hexagon system provides online, contactless scanning of CO2 laser-engraved Datamatrix codes. Ideal for filling lines or manufacturing plants, it connects directly to databases to ensure complete traceability, particularly suited for the returnable bottle market.

SPIN READER
Specifically utilized on rotary machines, the Spin Reader offers high-tolerance reading of CO2 laser-engraved codes. Its robust design and easy adjustment have made it a trusted solution for major manufacturers like O-I, VERALLIA, and MOËT & CHANDON.

HELICAL READER
The Helical Reader features exclusive technology designed specifically for the complex environment of filling plants. It ensures accurate and efficient processing by reading Datamatrix codes with high reliability, securing product tracking throughout the packaging line.

HEXAGON ALPHA
Developed for the cosmetics industry, the Hexagon Alpha uses AI algorithms to read alphanumeric codes on perfume bottle necks in real-time. It can identify damaged codes, associate defects with specific molds, and trigger precise ejection, ensuring total quality control.
SPIN READER ARABIC CODE
A specialized version of the Spin Reader developed for Arabic-script alphanumeric codes engraved on glass bottles. Combining high-tolerance optical reading with dedicated OCR algorithms trained on Arabic character sets, it guarantees reliable identification and full traceability.
Filling Plants Solutions
End-to-end identification, tracking, and quality inspection systems designed for the fast-paced environment of modern filling lines.
COLD-END LASER
The Cold-End Laser system applies permanent, high-contrast CO2 laser-engraved Datamatrix codes directly onto glass bottles at the cold end of the production line. Designed for filling plant integration, it ensures each bottle carries a unique, machine-readable identity from manufacture through to final packaging.
HEXAGON DATAMATRIX HIGH SPEED
A high-speed variant of the Hexagon reader engineered for the demanding pace of filling lines. It reads CO2 laser-engraved Datamatrix codes at full production speed with zero false rejects, connecting seamlessly to plant databases to deliver real-time traceability and ejection control.
HELICAL READER
The Helical Reader features exclusive technology designed specifically for the complex environment of filling plants. Its 360° helical scanning head reads Datamatrix codes regardless of bottle orientation, ensuring accurate and reliable product tracking throughout the entire packaging line.
LABEL INSPECTION MACHINE
An advanced vision system that performs 100% in-line inspection of bottle labels at filling plant speeds. It verifies label presence, position, orientation, and print quality — detecting missing labels, skew, creases, and barcode defects — to guarantee compliance and brand consistency on every bottle.
