Chivas Bros. of Paisley buy two new Mapex Inspection V4 high resolution colour camera systems to replace previous generation Mapex Inspection V3 systems.

Following the 2008 installation of Mapex Inspection V4 high resolution colour label inspection on line 1 at Paisley Chivas Bros have chosen to upgrade the inspection of Chivas Regal on two other lines. The previously installed standard resolution monochrome Mapex Inspection V3 systems will be upgraded to V4 because of the improved inspection capability. The previously installed equipment is to be reconfigured to perform a variety of lower profile tasks within the bottling halls.
