    Abstract: An inspection device includes: an irradiator that radiates, before content is placed into the pocket, ultraviolet light toward one face of the container film; imaging devices that take images of the container film from another face side of the container film; and a processor that determines, based on the images, whether the pocket includes a pinhole, at least two of the imaging devices being each disposed on respective sides of the container film in a width direction such that the pocket is placed between the two imaging devices, and while the container film is being conveyed along a conveyance path, the two imaging devices take images of the pocket at a timing when the pocket is located at an upstream-side position, a middle-side position, and a downstream-side position of the conveyance path.

    Abstract: An inspection device includes: X-ray irradiators that irradiates, with a predetermined X-ray from a first film-side, inspection ranges that respectively correspond to positions of packaging sheets to be separated from the packaging film; an imaging device that is disposed on a second film-side and opposed to the X-ray irradiators across the packaging film, that comprises an X-ray detector comprising detection elements arrayed along the film width direction and detecting the X-ray transmitted through the packaging film, and that successively outputs X-ray transmission image data obtained every time the packaging film is conveyed by a predetermined amount; and a controller that inspects the packaging sheet based on the X-ray transmission image data obtained by the imaging device,

    Abstract: An inspection device for inspecting an inspection object portion in a PTP sheet, the inspection device including: an irradiator that irradiates the inspection object portion with light; an imaging device that takes an image of the inspection object portion irradiated with the light; a processor that detects a defect in the inspection object portion from the taken image by using a predetermined luminance threshold value, and determines whether the inspection object portion is non-defective; a verification image generating circuit that generates a verification image in which a virtual defective image is placed in a non-defective image; and a threshold value verifier that causes the processor to determine whether the inspection object portion is non-defective or defective by using the verification image, in place of the image taken by the imaging device, and to verify the luminance threshold value based on a determination result by the processor.
