Returning beverage crates at the RVM<\/h2>

In addition to individual PET bottles or aluminum cans, reverse vending machines must also be able to handle entire beverage crates in certain cases. This requires checking both the crate itself and its contents before acceptance. The insensiv crate recognition system was developed to reliably identify the crate type and confirm the correct occupation of the crate compartments.\n

\nThe intelligent camera system can be seamlessly integrated as an OEM component into the input chute of various types of reverse vending machines. Multiple high-performance cameras capture images of the crate from different angles, enabling precise and reliable analysis.\n

The crate recognition has been used successfully for many years in established deposit return schemes \u2013 such as the German reusable deposit system \u2013 and has proven itself to be a robust, low-maintenance, and sustainable solution. It supports a fast and straightforward return process, ensuring a smooth customer experience.<\/p> Product flyer<\/a><\/div> <\/div><\/div> <\/div>

Reliable recognition & analysis<\/h2>

The crate recognition system operates fully automatically and is controlled by the reverse vending machine. As soon as a beverage crate is inserted, the system begins image capture and analysis at the command of the RVM control unit. Evaluation is performed directly on the device, and the results are directly transmitted back to the control system.\n

\nThe crate itself is identified by comparing the logo, color, and dimensions with a database. Over 100 different crate types can be stored in this database. 3D stereo optics are used to analyze the occupancy of the crate compartments inside the crate and to detect missing or incorrect bottles.\n

\nThe crate recognition system can be conveniently configured via a web-based user interface. This intuitive interface enables easy management of the crate database and fine-tuning of recognition parameters, while also providing access to the latest analysis results. As a result, the system remains highly flexible and easily adaptable to new markets or crate types.<\/p> <\/div>

Flexible recognition of various crate types<\/h2>

Beverage companies place great importance on distinctive packaging that showcases their brand and products. As a result, the range of crates in use is highly diverse and dynamic \u2013 ranging from classic standard models to custom-designed editions and regional special formats. \n

The insensiv crate recognition has been developed precisely for this diversity. It reliably recognizes a wide variety of crate types and their compartment occupancy \u2013 regardless of shape, color, or design. New beverage crates can be easily taught in a database and their recognition can be configured via the web-based user interface. Thanks to its high adaptability, the crate recognition can be used flexibly in different markets and deposit return schemes. This makes it the ideal solution for manufacturers of reverse vending machines who operate in different countries and have to adapt to constantly changing packaging designs.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>
