Dpi blister strip weighing system
Ensure precision in your inhalation product lines with a system designed for real-time weight verification and quality inspection of blister strips, maintaining dosage accuracy and compliance.
Inspects and Weighs DPI Blister Strips
The DPI Checkweigher from Harro Höfliger is a specialized inspection machine designed for precise quality control of dry powder inhaler (DPI) blister strips. It performs automated in-process control (IPC) inspections by weighing each cavity in a blister strip to ensure accurate fill weights and product integrity. Ideal for pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers, it simulates the opening process used in inhalers to validate consistency and dosage accuracy. This compact system not only calibrates X-ray inspection setups but also records complete IPC results for thorough batch documentation. Capable of integrating seamlessly into production lines for aluminum blister strips, the DPI Checkweigher supports efficient operations through sophisticated weighing technology, ensuring compliance with pharmaceutical standards.
