Non-destructive headspace analyzer for pharmaceutical packages
Ensure non-destructive and accurate headspace analysis for pharmaceutical packaging to optimize quality control and meet stringent regulatory standards.

Analyzes Headspace and Inspects Pharmaceutical Vials
WILCO’s SPECTRA series, including the HSX 100, HSX 300, HSX 500, and NIV 300, offers comprehensive non-destructive inspection solutions for the pharmaceutical, biotech, and chemical industries. These systems are designed for meticulous headspace analysis and NIR spectroscopy, ensuring thorough quality control in parenterals and lyophilized products. The SPECTRA HSX models utilize advanced laser systems for headspace gas detection, nitrogen purging efficiency, and container closure integrity testing, configurable with up to ten test heads for enhanced sensitivity and throughput of up to 500 vials per minute. The NIV 300 model employs near-infrared spectroscopy to analyze moisture content and detect lyophilization defects at speeds up to 600 samples per minute, fully automated for minimal human intervention. All systems are GMP-compliant, integrate seamlessly into production lines, and offer optional modules for additional inspection such as visual systems and 2D DataMatrix code readers. Designed with an easy format changeover and user-friendly interface, these analyzers ensure reliable, continuous operation and support dynamic production requirements.
