Abstract: The invention relates to a method for inspecting containers, comprising: providing a first source of light illuminating the containers, said source being composed of a plurality of elementary light sources that are controlled so as to define at least three illumination zones (S11); providing at least three image sensors (C11, C12, C13); acquiring at least one image of the container illuminated by an associated illumination zone, the elementary light sources of the illumination zones (S11) being controlled so that: the at least three illumination zones (S11) associated with the image sensors have identical angular widths (L11); the at least three illumination zones (S11) associated with the image sensors have symmetric angular widths (L11); and at least two angularly neighbouring illumination zones have a common illumination portion (S112).

Abstract: A method for measuring the thickness of glass containers includes the following steps:
choosing to measure the radiation emitted by the container from a first side and a second side of the container diametrically opposite to each other;
choosing to measure the radiation emitted by the container in a first spectral band in a range between 2,800 nm and 4,000 nm and in a second spectral band;
simultaneously measuring, from each side of the container, the intensity of the radiation coming from the walls in the first spectral band and in the second spectral band; and
determining at least the thickness of the first wall and of the second wall (22), from the measurements of the intensity of the radiation coming from the first wall in the first and second spectral bands and from the second wall in the first and second spectral bands.

Abstract: A method for marking, at the outlet of a forming machine using a laser beam, a marking area on hot glass containers comprises determining the longitudinal and transverse positions of the marking area of each container by positioning a first optical axis of a first light sensor and a second optical axis of a second light sensor in a non-parallel manner to each other, in a detection plane parallel to the conveying plane of the containers, detecting the instant of intersection or disengagement, by a container, of the first optical axis and the instant of intersection or disengagement, by a container, of the second optical axis, and calculating said transverse and longitudinal positions from these instants and in consideration of a known or constant speed of translation of the containers. The method can determine the marking instant for each container running past the laser apparatus.
