Analysis of a champagne bottle capping line using a high-speed camera

Making wine, sparkling wine or Champagne is a long and complex process.
Bottling, capping, and labelling, on the other hand, are fast, sometimes very fast processes.

Some operations, such as corking and applying the muselet, are delicate. This is where the Trouble Pad camera comes into its own. It helps us understand the machinery’s movements.

The technicians have access to information; they simply place the camera and lighting in the area(s) to be studied and within minutes the first sequences are available in slow motion. Operators choose the scrolling speed to understand the kinematics of the operations.
