The 240 people at the Rambouillet production site, near Paris, are in charge of producing nearly 300 million units a year of \"haircare\" and \"skincare\" products such as shampoos, conditioners and showers, including those for the Els\u00e8ve and Dop brands.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>L'Or\u00e9al's marketing &amp; development teams create each new product (franchise) in a different shape, color and\/or material, depending on the product category or target market. Recycled resin bottles, for example, represent one of the latest ecological innovations for the L'Or\u00e9al Paris brand. Each new creation requires adaptation of production processes. Specific tests are therefore necessary to ensure that any new packaging can be adapted to the packaging lines. They are also essential to validate that production will take place under the right conditions with the right yields, and therefore without any loss of output in the medium term. \u00c9ric Debreuille, a chemical engineer, is in charge of packaging at the Rambouillet site. He works closely with the Group's centralized packaging\/development departments, as well as with the plant's technical packaging teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\"My role consists, among other things, in ensuring that design choices match packaging equipment. To do this, based on the product definition, a formal risk analysis is used to assess the impact of packaging changes on industrial equipment. It is then necessary to organize, monitor and support the tests, summarizing the results which will enable the technical choice to be validated or not\".<\/em>explains \u00c9ric Debreuille.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two quality systems coexist at L'Or\u00e9al: design quality (packaging) and compliance quality (production). \u00c9ric Debreuille navigates between the two. In design, he contributes to product definition and industrial feasibility (testing), which he builds and carries out with centralized packaging and technical teams, enabling the new packaging item to be approved or not.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the site's Quality-Compliance department, laboratory technicians check the conformity of the items produced, particularly when a new format is produced for the first time, or when there is a change of material. The specifications for these new packagings specify the dimensional measurements to be carried out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Optiv M offers precision, reliability and speed in bottle and cap measurement, as well as real expertise. <em>\"We used to carry out our dimensional measurements using manual tools, in particular electronic calipers. Some measurements, however, were very complex to implement, particularly those inside a capsule or even on a bottle\".<\/em>recalls \u00c9ric Debreuille.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A request from Sematec, a member of the Hexagon group, for analysis of industrial equipment projects, led to the need for a three-dimensional measuring machine to help develop real packaging expertise, mainly on bottles. This is how the Optiv multi-sensor machine came to be presented to L'Or\u00e9al. <em>\"Our decision-making group, consisting of the quality manager, the laboratory manager and myself, stipulated that the new tool should not only enable more reliable, faster and automated dimensional analysis, but also provide a concrete interpretation of the face &amp; vertical deformations observed on our bottles. The aim was to correlate these measurements with our quality problems observed on the packaging lines.\"&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Combined with a series of sensors for very fast, precise and versatile measurements, Optiv M 3.2.2 was the solution for the inspections and analyses sought by L'Or\u00e9al. <em>\"We were quickly able to cut inspection time on vials by a factor of five, while guaranteeing more reliable measurements thanks to the machine's combination of vision and probe technology, perfectly suited to the measurement of certain dimensions. And the time taken to measure the capsules was cut by a factor of ten, thanks to the system's palletization, adapted to our needs,<\/em> says \u00c9ric Debreuille.<em> Hexagon's partner Opus was able to design sophisticated, high-quality fixtures adapted to the different items to be inspected, thus optimizing the measurements made with our three-dimensional machine. Among other things, this equipment makes up for the limited volume of the Optiv 3.2.2, enabling us to measure all bottle formats, whatever their size\".<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>L'Or\u00e9al uses Hexagon's PC-DMIS CAD++ software, coupled with the Inspect operator interface with pallet option, and Hero analysis report software. <em>\"I've already been able to design some twenty PC-DMIS programs and train three laboratory technicians on the machine, in analysis. I'm discovering new possibilities every day, and can look forward to seeing our level of packaging expertise grow even further in the coming months\".<\/em>concludes \u00c9ric Debreuille.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La machine multi-capteur Optiv 3.2.2 d\u2019Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence \u00e9quip\u00e9e du mode de palettisation offre des mesures dimensionnelles pr\u00e9cises et automatis\u00e9es des capsules et flacons de L\u2019Or\u00e9al, et permet de d\u00e9velopper une expertise packaging sur d\u2019autres crit\u00e8res d\u2019analyse tels que la d\u00e9formation et la verticalit\u00e9 flacon.&nbsp; Cr\u00e9\u00e9 en France en 1909, le groupe L\u2019Or\u00e9al compte 88 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":148,"featured_media":8320,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"external_url":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[694,57],"tags":[60],"class_list":{"0":"post-8319","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-avis-dexperts","8":"category-packaging","9":"tag-info-produit"},"acf":{"nc":"marilyne.vojetta@hexagon.com","nc2":"","nc3":"","nc4":"","nc5":"","nom_url":"hexagonmi.com","lien_url":"https:\/\/www.hexagonmi.com"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8319","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/148"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8319"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8319\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8320"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8319"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8319"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8319"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
