In the pharmaceutical industry where vials are filled with tablets in a high-speed application, as soon as each vial is filled, a stopper must
be properly inserted into the vial.
To ensure that a stopper is properly inserted as each vial leaves the filling station, an iVu Series sensor—set up for an Area application
and motion parameters enabled—verifies that the vial has a stopper inserted into its neck and that the stopper is positioned correctly to
provide a proper seal on the glass vial. If the stopper is missing or incorrectly positioned, then the sensor sends a fail output to the line.
2.2 Installing the Sensor
2.2.1 Installing and Connecting the Sensor
The iVu TG sensor requires a bracket for mounting. Three brackets are available from Ban-
ner. The brackets allow the sensor to be mounted either perpendicular to the part or at an
adjustable angle.

Thread three M4 x 4mm screws through the bracket into the mounting holes in the bottom of the sensor. Tighten all three screws.
