Serialization system for small-scale pharmaceutical production
Ensure precise serialization and inspection of small production batches with a compact system that manages serialization data, verifies print accuracy, and facilitates manual product handling, streamlining packaging operations while minimizing errors.
Serializes and Verifies Packaging for Pharmaceuticals
The Print & Check Small Production (VM3800) from Antares Vision Group is an ideal semi-automatic solution for pharmaceutical manufacturers and life sciences companies needing precision in serialization and verification of packaging. This standalone system expertly handles marking, recording, and verifying serialization data on medicine cartons and cosmetic product boxes. The VM3800 operates with a precise conveyor belt system, stopping when nonconformity is detected, allowing manual removal of erroneous packages. It also supports unformed and flat carton processing through manual readers and PTS software to facilitate aggregation functions. Operating at a speed of up to 60 pieces per minute, it accommodates various carton sizes with its flexible design. Equipped with an 18.5” ergonomic touchscreen and standard options like TIJ 2.5 printing and 1D/2D code inspection, it ensures high-grade print quality and track and trace capability. The system integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, supporting up to two printing heads and optional reject systems, enhancing overall operational efficiency while maintaining compliance with industry standards.
