The complete inspection of ampoules and vials in a straight–through system.

HEUFT spotter PH

full container inspection

Pharmaceutical containers such as ampoules or vials filled with parenteral drugs and other pharmaceutical products are checked by the HEUFT spotter PH for foreign matter, contaminants, damage, closure faults and brand purity. The end of line system, as a straight-through device without change parts, is impressive not only due to its precision when detecting faults but also its high throughput rates and fast brand change at the touch of a button.

FUNCTIONS

• detects floating foreign particles and those which have sunk to the container base in transparent products
• detects contaminants, defects and deviations in shape
• ampoule tip inspection for detecting burn marks and damage
• identifies vials with missing, damaged or non-brand crimp caps
• automatically adapts the passing width of the servo-controlled conveyor belt and the camera positions during brand changeovers
• a specially developed rejection system for the reliable removal of faulty containers

THE ADVANTAGES

• maximum detection reliability
• complete inspection of the total container volume
• extensive base inspection without "blind areas"
• optimal container alignment
• HEUFT reflexx technology for high-performance image processing
• linear operation for a high throughput
• change parts dispensed with for fast brand changes at the push of a button and low storage costs
• automatic function monitoring by means of integrated tools such as a test bottle log, container tracking, reject verification and message stack
