Standalone unit for serialization printing and verification
Ensure precise serialization and robust data integrity for pharmaceutical packaging with a compact, high-speed system that seamlessly integrates into your production line, enhancing both in-line and off-line operations.
Prints and Verifies Serialized Data on Cartons
The Print & Check EVO (VM2100) from Antares Vision Group is a standalone serialization and verification system designed to streamline pharmaceutical packaging operations. This compact unit efficiently integrates into both in-line and off-line production setups to mark, record, and verify serialization data on cartons. Utilizing up to four thermal inkjet (TIJ) printing heads, it ensures high-resolution prints on both sides of the carton, achieving a line speed of up to 300 pieces per minute. With control cameras positioned for real-time inspection, it detects and rejects non-compliant products, maintaining data integrity and compliance with industry standards. Particularly suited for serialized medicine packages like cartons, blister packs, and vial packaging, the system incorporates flexible configurations for varying carton sizes. Its robust construction with options for water-based or solvent-based ink cartridges ensures adaptability and operational longevity. Moreover, it complies with ISO/IEC 15415-2 standards, supporting both pharmaceutical manufacturers and packaging companies in their serialization and regulatory efforts.
