Uv laser writer for high-speed tablet marking
Achieve precise and rapid marking of pharmaceutical and nutraceutical tablets and capsules, ensuring clear identification and compliance with industry standards, even at high production speeds.

Marks Tablets and Capsules Efficiently
The IBM UV Laser Writer by RW Hartnett Company is engineered for the high-speed marking of pharmaceutical products like tablets, soft gelatin capsules, and caplets, specifically those with titanium dioxide (TiO2) content. This machine utilizes a state-of-the-art laser marking system, ensuring precision and efficiency in large-scale production environments. Capable of processing over 300,000 pieces per hour, it is indispensable for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers focused on maintaining product quality and compliance with 21 CFR Part 11 and CE certifications.
Equipped with an adjustable bulk hopper and a servo drive system, the IBM UV Laser Writer provides accurate print registration and maximizes fill rates. Its design features quick-change tooling for minimal downtime, and a swingarm 15” touch screen HMI with Wi-Fi connectivity for easy operation within automated production lines. Optional features, such as a vision inspection system, ensure single-piece rejection, while the availability of validation document packages supports regulatory compliance. Designed with integration in mind, this machine can operate seamlessly in both processing and packaging departments, accommodating various production setups.
