Packaging & logistics
A wrong label or a short count is found by your customer, not by you. Gorad reads labels and codes, counts items and holds the box until everything matches.
What makes inspection hard here
- Labels and codes are printed at speed and checked by eye, if at all
- Many SKUs share a line, so the wrong label, insert or product is easy to pack
- A wrong label, short count or loose cap means a returned shipment or a complaint
- There is no record of what was checked before shipping
Typical checks
Codes and text
Labels, barcodes, date and lot codes, and pallet labels: present, readable and correct.
Presence and count
Items in the pack, inserts, caps and blister pockets: all there, and the right count.
Variant and orientation
The right SKU and label for the order, caps straight and seated, labels in the right place.
Defects and surface damage
Damaged carton corners, open flaps, foil and seal defects, and foreign objects in trays.
Measurement
Fill level in clear bottles and jars.

Area scan, code reading
Shrink-wrap and film inspection on continuous lines needs line-scan cameras, and certified barcode grading needs a dedicated verifier. Gorad’s code grade is indicative. Lines above 20 packs per second are outside today’s scope.
Useful on the same platform
Inspection results feed these apps, on the same data.
