Fill Level Optimization

Before You Begin

6-36
Fill Level Optimization is used to increase fill level inspection
accuracy for applications that require higher accuracy than is
achieved through normal fill level inspection parameters. It
narrows the margin between acceptable and rejectable containers.
Fill Level Optimization should only be used when performing
underfill inspection. This is a highly complex procedure and you
should contact IDC Customer Service to determine if Fill Level
Optimization is suitable to your application before attempting
the procedure.
Fill Level Optimization has two goals:
• To precisely tune the Underfill Threshold to the container fill
level.
• To precisely align the Inspection Head Height to the Underfill
Threshold.
Before you begin the Fill Level Optimization routine you must do
the following:
• Calibrate the encoder (if needed)
• Calibrate the Scintillation Tube Detector (if needed)
• Level the Inspection Head
• Obtain an approved 100 percent reject production container
from your Quality Assurance Department. This is critical for
performing the Fill Level Optimization properly.
• Obtain an approved 100 percent acceptable production
container from your Quality Assurance Department.
