In brief

For Glass Container Inspection, define the operating conditions for good, bad and marginal sample range: the normal state, credible extremes, how the relevant values or conditions are measured, and which decision or outcome they affect.

For in-line inspection using visible glass-container inspection, describe the realistic range and how changes in good, bad and marginal sample range affect the result you need.

On the production floor

Turn your production information into clearer decisions — Glass Container Inspection

Plan glass container inspection around representative good, bad and marginal samples, line presentation, lighting, reject handling and challenge criteria. Discuss an optical feasibility trial with Oxford Vision Systems. Use this guide to resolve good, bad and marginal sample range before it limits the final system.

What to record

Good, Bad and Marginal Sample Range: condition, range and effect on your process

Current condition

Describe how you observe or measure good, bad and marginal sample range in your operation, including sample condition and any measuring limits. For a project focused on visible glass-container inspection, also record the production state in which each observation was made.

Realistic range

For Glass Container Inspection, include normal production conditions, credible extremes, product or part variants and changes over time.

Effect on the system

Show which settings, safeguards, maintenance tasks, decisions or required outcomes are affected by changes in good, bad and marginal sample range.

Before you contact us

Five questions about good, bad and marginal sample range for your application

  1. Who can confirm this information?Identify the person responsible for good, bad and marginal sample range in production, quality, engineering or operations.
  2. How representative is the sample?Include age, supplier, batch, environment and upstream process state where they affect glass container inspection.
  3. What is the difficult condition?Include the slow, reflective, flexible, dirty, damaged, marginal or uncommon case that your system must still handle.
  4. How will you judge the result?Agree the method, repetitions, acceptable range, result record and the response if the observed result falls outside the agreed range.
  5. What else must be coordinated?Your final glass container inspection scope must also account for recipe, reject and line-control interfaces, false-accept, false-reject and challenge criteria, current regulations and the conditions at your site.

Question 1

Visible Defect or Measurement Definition for Visible Glass-Container Inspection

For Good, Bad and Marginal Sample Range: Optics and lighting selection, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for visible defect or measurement definition for visible glass-container inspection. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.

Question 2

Good, Bad and Marginal Sample Range

For Good, Bad and Marginal Sample Range: Optics and lighting selection, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for good, bad and marginal sample range. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.

Question 3

Part Presentation and Production Speed

For Good, Bad and Marginal Sample Range: Optics and lighting selection, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for part presentation and production speed. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.

Question 4

Optics, Lighting and Environmental Conditions

For Good, Bad and Marginal Sample Range: Optics and lighting selection, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for optics, lighting and environmental conditions. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.

Question 5

Recipe, Reject and Line-Control Interfaces

For Good, Bad and Marginal Sample Range: Optics and lighting selection, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for recipe, reject and line-control interfaces. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.

Question 6

False-Accept, False-Reject and Challenge Criteria

For Good, Bad and Marginal Sample Range: Optics and lighting selection, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for false-accept, false-reject and challenge criteria. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.
