X-rays blister packs
January 1st 2007

As the pharmaceutical industry moves towards 100% verification, the problem of checking billions of unitary dose blister packs is a large one. A blister without its tablet or capsule is not only a health risk to the patient, it can be a liability issue for the drug supplier.

One solution is X-Line from 3DXRay.

An advanced x-ray imaging system, it offers imaging, measurement and analysis in both 2 and 3D. It can integrate with an existing QC, SPC or pass/fail system, making choices based on sophisticated decision-based criteria. The company says it is able to do this at a fraction of the cost of conventional x-ray systems due to its line-scan technology which eliminates the need for 'area' detectors.

The automated in-line inspection tool is suitable for inspection of smaller items on production lines.

It can image through the foil often used on blister packs and can detect tablets even when they are moving past at 400 blisters per minute on a conveyor belt.
