It is critical for any pharmaceutical company to ensure that safe, reliable, high-quality products are produced. Manufacturers and contract packaging companies of solid-dose pharmaceutical products are challenged to strictly adhere to regulatory standards while struggling to meet the growing demands of the healthcare industry. In this pursuit, the integration of advanced technologies such as tablet inspection cameras has been a game-changer, bringing significant benefits to pharmaceutical manufacturers around the world.

Now you can experience unmatched product quality and raise the bar for yourself with the advanced BottleChrom inspection system with monolithic rejection. This cutting-edge technology is able to identify and reject damaged and erroneous tablets and capsules, ensuring that each bottle contains only the highest quality product.

Strengthen quality control

The tablet inspection camera acts as a vigilant guardian, monitoring each tablet or capsule and verifying its quality against a set of predefined parameters. By utilizing advanced imaging and analysis techniques, this cutting-edge system can quickly detect the slightest irregularities in shape, size, or color, indicating potential defects or deviations from the intended composition. Its role in quality control ensures that only products of the highest standards reach consumers.

Prevent external pollution

Foreign contaminants, whether foreign particles or incorrect tablets or capsules, pose a significant risk to the safety of patients and consumers and can damage a pharmaceutical company's reputation. The visual inspection system can effectively prevent such accidents from happening. It is able to identify foreign objects with unmatched accuracy, ensuring that only the intended product enters the bottle, minimizing the potential for mix-ups and cross-contamination.

The monolithic rejection system, as an option for the BottleChrom camera system, takes quality control to the next level. This ingenious device is designed to extract foreign objects and defective products from the product stream before entering the infrared product counting channel of the counting machine, without affecting the overall output of the machine. By quickly eliminating these anomalies, the single-piece rejection system prevents them from reaching the filling stage and ensures that only the perfect product is dispensed into the bottles.

Maintain brand reputation

In an era of heightened awareness and scrutiny, maintaining a strong brand reputation is essential for any pharmaceutical company. Any case of substandard or contaminated products can have serious consequences, from costly recalls to irreversible damage to brand image. Tablet inspection systems are equipped with a single tablet rejection device that acts as a strong defense against potential quality issues. By rejecting foreign objects and defective products in a timely and effective manner, the system maintains brand integrity, protects patient safety, and reinforces trust in the manufacturer's commitment to delivering only the highest quality medicines.

How does it work?

The BottleChrom inspection system with monolithic rejection device is used to inspect the products used by CremerCFS 622andCFI 622Counting and bottle filling systems for tablets or capsules processed by the counting module. When the product is running on the vibrating plate of the counting module, multiple full-color cameras monitor the product in real time. Cameras and dedicated software detect the color, shape, damage, and breakage of the product. The system can distinguish between defective products and foreign products. Defective products may be small product chips or damaged or broken products. A foreign product is any product or object that should not be present in a product batch.

Counting and bottle filling systems

If a defective product is detected, the vibrating plate of the counting module is briefly paused while the so-called "reject chute" moves to its outer "extended" position and the defective product is removed by vacuum. Subsequently, the defective product is blown directly into the lockable collection drum.

If a foreign object is detected, the machine stops immediately and an alarm message is prompted. After manual removal of foreign objects, the confirmation button must be pressed by an operator with the required access rights before the operation can be restarted.

The BottleChrom with Monolithic Rejection System offers several key advantages over other visual inspection and monitoring systems available. The biggest advantage of monolithic rejection is that incorrect or damaged tablets or capsules can be removed almost instantaneously and instantaneously, without affecting the overall output of the machine. This allows up to 400 good bottles to be checked in real time every minute!

Operational efficiency and cost savings

While the primary goal of a visual inspection system is to maintain quality standards, it also provides tangible benefits to pharmaceutical manufacturers in terms of operational efficiency and cost savings. By quickly and accurately identifying defective or non-compliant products, the camera can proactively intervene and prevent downstream complications.

Adopting a monolithic rejection system not only enhances quality control, but also improves operational efficiency and saves costs. By eliminating manual intervention when identifying and removing individual faulty tablets, the system streamlines the manufacturing process, reduces human error, and increases throughput. This automation optimizes resource utilization, minimizes rework, and ultimately delivers significant cost savings for pharmaceutical manufacturers.

conclusion

The integration of tablet inspection cameras and monolithic rejection systems represents a major leap forward in pharmaceutical manufacturing. These advanced technologies play an integral role in maintaining the quality, safety, and integrity of pharmaceutical products. By combining precise imaging, analytical capabilities, and targeted removal of defective and foreign tablets, these systems enable manufacturers to ensure the production of reliable pharmaceutical products while improving operational efficiency, reducing costs, and maintaining their brand reputation.
