Premier Tech Systems and Automation Unveils Advanced Seal Inspection System for Closed Valve Bags

Valve bagger

Salt Lake City, June 16, 2025 — Premier Tech Systems and Automation (PTSA) continues to demonstrate its commitment to innovation with the introduction of a new seal inspection technology specifically designed to address critical challenges in valve bagging systems. This advanced solution promises to redefine quality assurance in industries such as food, feed, chemicals, and minerals, where operational efficiency and product integrity are paramount.

For years, product leaks have posed significant challenges for manufacturers, leading to wasted product, rejected shipments, contamination risks, and costly production downtime. These issues not only disrupt workflows but also impact customer satisfaction and profitability. As manufacturers face increasing demands for precision, sustainability, and reliability, the need for innovative solutions has never been greater.

PTSA’s new seal inspection technology directly addresses these challenges, offering manufacturers a reliable way to ensure leak-free, high-quality packaging. The system combines thermal imaging and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to analyze the thermal signature of each ultrasonic bag's seal immediately after the sealing process. By comparing each seal to a library of optimal examples, the AI determines whether the seal meets quality standards. Bags with perfect seals continue seamlessly down the production line, while those with defects are flagged for removal, ensuring only leak-free products reach the next stage of the workflow.

At Premier Tech, we understand the real-world challenges our clients face every day, we are proud to empower manufacturers with tools that drive efficiency, protect their products, and ensure customer satisfaction.

This advanced seal inspection technology is available as an optional feature or retrofit for PTSA's valve bagging systems. Its seamless integration, combined with its ability to prevent defective bags from entering the supply chain, reinforces PTSA’s position as a leader in innovative packaging solutions.
