<p>An apparatus and method for inspecting and sorting molded containers includes aninspection device (34) for inspecting containers and a container mold of origin identifier(22) for correlating a container that is determined to have at least one unacceptablecommercial variation with the mold cavity that produced the container. A controller(16) having a programmed cavity reject threshold is in communication with theinspection device and the container mold of origin identifier for monitoringa commercial variation threshold to determine if a mold of origin has produceda threshold number of containers having a commercial variation outside the acceptablelimits. A diverter (20) is in communication with the controller for segregatingall the containers produced by a mold of origin determined to have produced thethreshold number of containers having the commercial variation beyond the acceptablelimits.</p> |
