Empty container inspection for pharma packaging
In the pharmaceutical industry, ensuring the integrity of primary packaging such as jars, vials, flacons, or bottles before filling is crucial. Contaminants, cracks, and defects can compromise product safety, making comprehensive inspection necessary.
Inspects and identifies container flaws
The HEUFT InLine is an advanced inspection solution designed specifically for empty pharmaceutical containers. This system uses high-performance cameras and the HEUFT reflexx A.I image processing system to perform a full 360° inspection of each container, covering the base, finish, and sidewalls. It reliably detects glass faults, foreign objects, and dirt, ensuring the highest quality of container integrity. The device also features an optical finish and thread inspection to detect defects and cracks around the container opening. With its compact design, this system fits into minimal floor space (< 1 m²) while operating at a capacity of up to 1,200 containers per minute. For added efficiency, the system's modular design supports simple upgrades and retrofits. HEUFT CleanDesign ensures easy cleaning and hygiene maintenance, making it ideal for use in sensitive production environments.
