• Print & Inspect in One Step: Simultaneous marking and vision inspection to streamline production.
• Faster processing: Integrated marking and inspection for improved throughput.
• Quick Change: Minimal part changes for fast and easy equipment setup.
• Flexibility: One set of tooling fits various product shapes with high precision.
• Precision Feeding: Equipped with a precision vibrating screw feeder for flawless separation and transfer.
• Guided Stability: 25 pocket guides and 20 rotation guides to position and sort products reliably.
• Zero Blind Spot Inspection: Uses multiple cameras to ensure complete coverage.
• User friendly: Simplified recipe settings and easy cleaning maximize operational efficiency.
• Smart Study: Machine learning stores unique optical characteristics of each product for improved defect detection.
• Safety: Engineered with high safety standards and a three-step (triple) checking system to prevent mix-ups.

Inspection & Detection

• Tablet inspection: Uses 10 2D cameras plus 2 3D cameras to eliminate blind spots.
• Capsule inspection: Inspects capsule shape and internal content with 14 2D and infrared cameras.
• Detected tablet defects include cracks, poor printing, and color inconsistency.
• Detected capsule defects include double caps, printing errors, and weight issues.

Print Capability
Simultaneous UV laser marking and inspection for both tablets and capsules; designed to ensure traceability and accuracy while streamlining process flow.
