    Tablet Imprinting Machine - IS-500

    Uploaded by

    Llang Lleav
    Qualicaps has introduced a new tablet imprinting system that adds optical inspection and imprint quality inspection capabilities. The system can imprint and inspect 500,000 tablets per hour. It uses cameras to inspect the front and rear surfaces before and after imprinting. Defective tablets are ejected while non-defective tablets continue on the production line. The system offers automated cleaning and quick changeover between tablet types.

    Qualicaps is committed to leveraging its extensive capsule manufacturing technologies to research and develop
    new products, improve pharmaceutical manufacturing systems, and provide customers with higher-quality capsules.
    We are proud to introduce a new multifunctional tablet imprinting system developed by adding optical inspection
    and imprint inspection functionality to our conventional tablet/soft capsule imprinting and tablet optical inspection
    systems.

    Unattended operation for high-speed processing


    The system delivers high-speed processing of 500,000 tablets per hour thanks to a proprietary vertical feed
    system that delivers a 100% feed rate. Operation is as follows:
     1.Rear surface inspection 2.Front surface(imprint surface)inspection 3.Imprinting 4.Imprint quality inspection

    Simple setup
    Automated attachment and removal of the slats used to horizontally transfer tablets makes it easy to change
    the type of tablet being processed.

    Full-featured inspection functionality (100% inspection)


    The front and rear surfaces of tablets are subject to an optical inspection before imprinting as well as a imprint
    quality inspection immediately after imprinting.

    （1）
    Features
    Vertical supply and alignment
    (rotation from vertical to horizontal orientation)
    Qualicaps’s proprietary vertical supply pocket system
    ensures a 100% feed rate. Tablets are aligned
    horizontally before being transferred to the next
    process（rear surface inspection）.

    Rear surface inspection (100% coverage)


    After alignment (rotation from vertical to horizontal
    orientation), the unimprinted tablets are held by
    suction inside pockets in the inspection roller and
    illuminated with a uniform light source while a 5,150-
    element CCD line sensor camera inspects their rear
    surfaces.

    Front(imprint)surface inspection
    (100% coverage)
    A5,150-element CCD line sensor camera inspects the
    front surfaces of the tablets from above as they are
    transferred horizontally on slats.

    （2）
    Transfer and imprinting
    Due to the shape of the tablets, horizontal transfer on
    slats ensures steady movement and high imprint
    quality. Having been positioned precisely and
    horizontally aligned, the tablets are now imprinted
    with a die roll onto which the desired text or logo has
    been etched and a rubber roll with which the imprint
    is transferred.

    Imprinting ink is maintained at constant viscosity by


    the system’s built-in automatic viscosity control unit.
    An air blower unit ensures that even detailed text and
    logos appear sharp and crisp.

    Cleanup
    An alcohol-moistened sponge cleans the rubber roll
    surface automatically at a user-defined interval. The
    sponge is stored inside the unit, where it is cleaned
    with an automatically circulating alcohol-based
    solution in preparation for the next cycle.

    Imprinted character inspection


    (100% coverage)
    A CCD area sensor camera positioned above each
    row of imprinted tablets being horizontally transferred
    on slats performs a high-precision inspection to detect
    missing text, misalignment of imprint, lack of
    imprint, and other defects.

    （3）
    Ejection of defective/non-defective tablets
    A computer-generated eject signal triggers the
    pneumatic ejection into defect bins of individual
    tablets for which rear surface, front surface, or
    imprint defects were detected. Non-defective tablets
    are routed to a special belt. (The system comes
    standard with a defective tablet ejection confirmation
    unit.)

    Slat attachment and removal


    Qualicaps’s automatic slat attachment/removal feature
    shortens the time required to replace the system’s
    many slats when changing tablet types or cleaning.
    This feature enables all slats to be attached or
    removed in about 20 minutes. (Slats are easily
    positioned and held in place by permanent magnets.)

    Front and rear surface inspection screen


    ・The front and rear surfaces of each of 12 rows of
    tablets are inspected by 3 cameras each.
    ・Proprietary image processing software enables high-
    speed, high-precision inspections.
    ・Image being processed can be paused on the monitor
    for operator confirmation of inspection results.
    ・The differential processing defect extraction level
    can be set independently for 4 selected tablet regions
    consisting of concentric circles.
