Precision weight-checking for pharmaceutical capsules
Ensure exact capsule and tablet dosage with high-speed precision weighing, maintaining the integrity of your pharmaceutical products while automatically rejecting out-of-spec units.
Weighs and Sorts Pharmaceutical Capsules and Tablets
The PRECISA from IMA Group is a precision weighing system specifically engineered for continuous, high-speed operations in the pharmaceutical industry. It stands out with its compact design and wheel attachment for easy movement, addressing spatial efficiency in production areas. The machine operates on a reliable transfer system to minimize vibrations, ensuring accurate and consistent weighing of capsules and tablets. With capabilities to check weights up to 230,000 units per hour, it efficiently feeds, weighs, tests, and rejects products like hard gelatine and HPMC capsules, as well as various tablets, ensuring batch integrity. PRECISA seamlessly integrates in-line with all capsule fillers, accommodating quick size changeovers and automatic unclogging of feeding channels. Built for durability and compliance, it supports operations with a low power requirement and meets stringent pharmaceutical standards, making it a versatile solution for manufacturers needing robust weight control.
