The article by Garth Gaddy titled, Machine Vision Adds Traceability to Packaging gives an in depth view of an automated vision system identifying cases of packed fruit and affixes barcode labels at a rate of more than 60 cases per minute. |

Some product cases are easier to label with barcodes than others. When a single type of produce with uniform size, weight, and variety, is packed into cases over a period of many hours, for example, the same barcode can be placed repeatedly on those cases.
However, this is not the case with stone fruit such as peaches, plums, and nectarines. Boxes moving down a production line will vary randomly in case type or size, as well as the size and grade of produce. The barcode labeling process must be as dynamic as the packaging line. |
