AI-Powered machine vision for cosmetic tube quality inspection

DeepInspect® – Cosmetic tube finishing and surface quality control software

Cosmetic manufacturers rely on flawless packaging, and even micro-level scratches, dents, punctures, or crimp defects can damage brand perception. DeepInspect® delivers an AI-powered quality inspection system designed specifically for cosmetic squeeze tube inspection, offering automated visual inspection, real-time defect detection, and zero-defect manufacturing capability. Using advanced AI-powered vision systems, DeepInspect® identifies scratches, dents, scuff marks, punctures, crimp tears, squeezed crimps, and visible silver on ABL/PBL tubes with unmatched accuracy.

Its deep-learning engine performs high-speed cosmetic tube surface inspection, detecting subtle defects that traditional machine vision and manual QC often miss. With DeepInspect®, manufacturers achieve reliable tube surface quality control automation, ensuring consistent inspection across all lines, shifts, and batches.

From cosmetic packaging inspection to sealing verification and print quality checks, DeepInspect® enables a fully automated, non-contact, 360° inspection workflow—helping cosmetic brands eliminate defects early and deliver perfect, premium tubes every time.

Inquiry Form

    What types of defects can occur on cosmetic squeeze tubes?

    Cosmetic tubes can have surface scratches, dents, punctures, air traps, blisters, laminate delamination, artwork shifts, crimp tears, weak seals, and print/lot-code errors.

    How does an AI-powered system detect sealing defects at the crimp?

    High-resolution cameras capture the crimp area, and DeepInspect-like AI models learn the shape, texture, and brightness of a good seal, flagging half seals, no seals, squeezed crimps, burns, and channel leaks in real time.

    What is OCR in cosmetic tube inspection?

    OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is used to read printed text such as batch codes, expiry dates, MRPs, and lot numbers on the tube or carton.

    Can DeepInspect® catch subtle surface defects that operators often miss?

    Yes. DeepInspect® identifies micro-scratches, dents, pinholes, wrinkles, and deformation that are nearly invisible to manual inspection or traditional rule-based systems.

    Can DeepInspect® replace manual inspection for tube quality?

    Yes. DeepInspect® removes human subjectivity by providing consistent, 24/7 automated inspection with far better repeatability, ensuring no sealing, surface, or print defect reaches the market.

    How many images are needed to train DeepInspect®'s machine vision model?

    DeepInspect® requires fewer than 200 good images for model training, significantly reducing setup time for AI defect detection.

    Does DeepInspect® need defective (NG) images for AI model training?

    No. DeepInspect® uses unsupervised AI, eliminating the need for NG images in training. 

    How long does it take to train a model with DeepInspect®?

    Model training is completed in less than 45 minutes, allowing rapid deployment of vision inspection

    How fast can DeepInspect® inspect cosmetic tubes on a running line?

    DeepInspect® supports high-speed inline inspection for 1000+ tubes per minute, ensuring real-time rejection and zero disruption to production.

    Can DeepInspect® combine surface, and OCR/OCV checks in one station?

    Yes. DeepInspect® uniquely integrates surface defect detection and print verification into a single AI-powered platform, delivering complete cosmetic tube quality assurance.
