The invention relates to an apparatus for controlling the quality of transparent objects, comprising at least one light source being adapted to illuminate the object, and at least one image capturing device, by means of which at least one image of the object can be detected, wherein the apparatus comprises further at least one reflector, wherein the reflector and the image capturing device define a beam path, wherein the reflector, the image capturing device, and the light source are arranged such that the object can be arranged between the reflector, on the one hand, and the image capturing device and the light source, on the other hand, such that a single sheet of material is located in the beam path. Furthermore, the invention relates to a corresponding method for controlling the quality of transparent objects.

Apparatus and method for controlling the quality of transparent objects

Conveying system for transporting a material flow (M) comprising a large number of individual objects (O, O, . . . ), characterized in that with the conveying system, by means of optical detection of individual objects (O, O, . . . ) in the material flow (M), for these objects (O, O, . . . ) respectively the location position (x(t),y(t)) thereof at several different times (t, t, . . . ) can be determined and by means of the location positions (x(t),y(t)) for these objects (O, O, . . . ) determined at the different times (t, t, . . . ), respectively the location (x(t),y(t)) thereof at at least one defined time (t) after the respectively latest of the different times (t, t, . . . ) can be calculated.
