Find a cost effective solution

In a soap manufacturing company, they were making bathing soaps. The soap blocks were made and wrapped in a packaging paper automatically on an assembly conveyer belt and finally packed into cartons.
Many times it happened that the machine wrapped the paper without the soap. To rectify the problem, the company decided to buy an x-ray scanner for $50,000 to check on the assembly line whether the wrapper contained soap or not.

One way would be to have air blown into the conveyor belt after the packing is done! The packs without the soap would be very light and would be blown off the belt, leaving behind the packs with soap.
