Pharmaceutical
Pharmaceutical manufacturing operates under stringent regulatory requirements where quality failures are not an option. Our vision systems are designed for GxP-compliant environments — from serialisation and track-and-trace to label verification and foreign particle detection. Every system is delivered with the documentation, validation support, and audit trails your quality team requires.
Machine vision applications
Key areas where machine vision delivers measurable value in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Serialisation and track-and-trace
Complete serialisation solutions for EU Falsified Medicines Directive and global regulatory compliance. Code printing, camera verification, aggregation, and MES integration across all packaging levels.
Label and artwork verification
Verify label content, placement, and legibility on pharmaceutical packaging. Detect incorrect labels, missing text, and non-conforming artwork to prevent mix-ups.
Blister pack inspection
Inspect blister packs for tablet presence, correct colour, broken tablets, foreign objects, and foil seal quality. Camera-based inspection at full thermoforming speeds.
Vial and syringe inspection
Inspect parenteral products for visible particles, fill level, stopper placement, and cap integrity. Automated inspection replacing manual visual inspection under GMP conditions.
Code and print verification
Verify printed batch numbers, expiry dates, GTIN codes, and variable data on cartons, labels, and leaflets. OCR, OCV, and barcode grading for regulatory compliance.
Packaging line quality control
Comprehensive inspection across primary, secondary, and tertiary packaging. Carton contents verification, leaflet presence, tamper-evident seal checks, and case-level aggregation.
