INSIGHTS ON PHARMACEUTICAL INSPECTION

PHARMACEUTICAL INSPECTION SOLUTIONS

  • Media Fill Inspection in the pharmaceutical industry has long been based on growth media culture methods. The general approach to media fill inspection is to incubate media filled vials for 14 days and then determine potential contamination with a visual inspection of the media sample. Over the last decade a number of Rapid Microbial Methods based on various analytical techniques have been implemented. These provide quicker, more sensitive, accurate, and reproducible test results when compared with conventional, growth-based methods. Recently, it has been demonstrated that laser-based headspace provides yet another alternative approach for detecting microbial contamination in sterile pharmaceutical product.

    Increase Operational Efficiency

    Automated visual inspection supports speeds up to 1,000 ppm, helping to save time and costs associated with manual quality control inspections.

    Flexible Integration Options

    The rapid installation frame, advanced camera, and lighting options fit various fields of view for a wide range of products.

    Sophisticated Toolset

    CIVCore software can perform multiple inter-dependent inspection criteria using powerful cameras for complex inspection applications.

  • The XR75 Pharma X-ray is optimized for the quality control of pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmetic products in thin opaque packaging materials that cannot be inspected manually or with visual systems. The leakage prevention curtains are designed to leave a 10 mm-clearance that ensures safety and reduces false rejects caused by product jams or changed orientation during conveyance. The system checks for different product integrity issues simultaneously: products trapped in seals, missing, chipped, or broken tablets in blisters, and the presence of foreign contaminants. The high-resolution X-ray images ensure reliable inspection of the small items at belt speed up to 90 m/min.

  • The VeriPac 410 inspection system uses force decay technology for non-destructive seal and leak detection for blister packs, sachets, and pouches with low headspace.

  • Seal-Sensor™ utilizes ultrasound technology that provides non-contact seal inspection solutions for offline laboratory use and high speed 100% online applications. Seal-Sensor is a very rapid, reliable method that provides an instant reading of seal presence and quality.
