Case Study: Pet Care Packaging Detection System with Glue Wheel & Barcode Verification

Pet care product packaging requires reliable glue application and accurate barcode printing. Even a small defect can affect product appearance, packaging performance, or warehouse scanning.

In this project, KQ integrated a detection system into a folder gluer production line. The system continuously monitors glue application and barcode quality, allowing defective cartons to be identified before they leave the production line.

Project Highlights

Glue Wheel Detection

The sensor monitors the glue wheel during production to ensure glue is applied consistently on every carton.

Barcode Detection

The production line verifies printed barcodes automatically, helping prevent unreadable or incorrect codes from reaching customers.

Finished Packaging Verification

After folding and gluing, the finished carton is checked to confirm print quality, barcode readability and overall appearance.

Customer Benefits

· Improves packaging quality consistency

· Detects glue and barcode defects during production

· Reduces manual inspection workload

· Lowers the risk of defective cartons reaching customers

· Suitable for high-speed pet care packaging production

Complete Production Monitoring

The detection system works continuously with the folder gluer, providing stable inspection throughout production. By combining glue wheel detection and barcode detection, manufacturers can improve quality control while maintaining production efficiency.
