OCR/OCV control and integral packaging control

Multifunction systems capable of performing in-line control of alphanumeric printed character, 1D and 2D coding, packaging artwork and product integral inspection. Flexible equipment that can be adapted to different customized projects.

OCR OCV Control

Applications

The flexibility of the software allows customization of all inspection requirements. Typical applications include: OCR/OCV control of printed characters, code control, vial borders, complete cases in one layer, Print Quality Verification (PQV) for ArtWork printed in-line. In addition, the equipment includes the Programmable Measurements tool which is a powerful and adaptable tool that allows a wide variety of special controls to be performed. This tool is a library that integrates a set of images allowing the operator to create (through a user-friendly interface) a customized application for image analysis with specific acceptance conditions.

Inspection of alphanumeric characters (OCR/OCV) and codes

CONTROL CHARACTERS LASER-PRINTED ON THE VIAL ALUMINUM SEAL

Controls the characters printed with laser technology on the aluminum seals of the bottles.

PRINT CONTROL ON LASER-PRINTED BOTTLE FLIP-OFFS

OCR/OCV inspection of printing on the flip-off color cover of the bottle with low contrast.

WINDOWS MOBILE MULTIPLE CHARACTER CONTROL

In-line OCR/OCV control of variable data on multiple labels.

DATAMATRIX CODE CONTROL ON ALUMINUM VIAL SEAL

2D code control on the aluminum seal of the product. This 360° inspection is necessary due to the irregular position of the Datamatrix on the aluminum seal.

PRINT CONTROL PROFILE CONTROL

This application controls the printed area and checks for potential defects. This includes over or missing characters, printouts with missing areas and lines of text.

VARIABLE DATA CODES

This application verifies the code identification and any variable data pre-printed or printed online. The OCR/OCV control performs the recognition and measurement of the characters, ensuring a careful printout.

CONTROL OF VARIABLE DATA IN BLISTER

This application controls the variable data printed on the blister foil by InkJet printing after sealing.

CONTROL OF CODES ON BOTTLE CAPS AND POSITION ROTATION FOR HUMAN READABILITY

The control is also performed on the label of the vial.

PQV VERIFICATION AND CHARACTER READING

In-line quality verification of printed data on multiple labels.

UV DATAMATRIX CODE CONTROL ON VIALS

Control of UV Datamatrix codes printed on bottle caps.

CODE READING

This is a comparative control between the code printed on the product and the reference code determined at the beginning of the production batch. OCV supports linear pharmacode, high density linear codes and 2D codes (Datamatrix).

QUALITY CONTROL OF DATAMATRIX CODE AND VARIABLE DATA PRINTING ON CARTONS

Controls laser-printed Datamatrix codes and variable data printed on the case flap. The system is able to manage the printer and the programming of the batch data to be printed online.

DATAMATRIX CODE CONTROL ON LASER PRINTED SYRINGES

This application controls laser printing of 2D codes on syringes.

CHARACTER CONTROL ON THE BOTTOM OF ALUMINUM VIALS

Allows character control at the bottom of the aluminum vial. This is achieved by means of a special optical setting that maximizes the contrast with the background.

Comprehensive package inspection

BOTTLE CAP CONTROL

This application controls the correct positioning of lids on vials. This control performs a measurement of the angles and lines between cardinal points of the edges of the caps.

CONTROL OF SEALING RINGS FOR VIAL LIDS

Checks the presence and position of sealing rings on vial lids. This control can be performed on conveyor belts or rotating machines.

INTEGRITY CONTROL OF GLASS NECK ON VIALS

This application checks the integrity of the glass neck on vials by discarding damaged units. This control can be performed on conveyor belts or rotating machines.

360° COSMETIC CONTROL OF THE BOTTLE

The 360° cosmetic control checks the correct insertion of the seal, the presence of scratches, stains and tears in the closure, as well as the presence and color of the product closure.

BOTTLE CAP CONTROL

This application controls the correct formation of the bottle neck allowing the discarding of non-compliant bottles.

FOREIGN BODY CONTROL IN WHITE PVC PIPES

This application controls foreign bodies and impurities inside white PVC pipes.

UV LABEL CONTROL ON SYRINGE BODIES

This application checks that the UV (Ultraviolet) Label is present and applied in the correct position.

SYRINGE ASSEMBLY CONTROL

This application controls the correct assembly of the syringe. The measurement of distances, angles and number of extracted points ensure high quality inspection and efficient disposal of defective syringes.

CONTROL OF GLASS FRAGMENTS IN THE VIAL

This application verifies the presence of glass fragments at the bottom of empty vials.

SEALING CONTROL IN GLASS AMPOULES

This application controls the blister sealing by identifying unsealed or defective seals.

360° ALUMINUM SEAL CONTROL

360° control of sealing, using pericentric optics. This solution makes it possible to control tears, bends and other defects with a single camera.

CONTROL OF BROKEN LIDS

Inspection of cover integrity, checking for broken or missing parts.

SYRINGE FLANGE INTEGRITY CONTROL

Check the presence and integrity of the syringe flange. Programmable measurement calculates the distance of multiple points from the edge of the product to detect broken parts.

DROP COUNT CONTROL

Detection of obstruction or failure in the drop counter orifice. This application performs this control by measuring the light passing through the same hole internally.

LID SHAPE CONTROL

Programmable measurement allows detection of lid edge failures due to crushing.

INTEGRITY CHECK OF THE BOTTOM OF THE CASE

This control uses a sophisticated lighting configuration that enhances the edges, while checking for completeness and defects on the bottom of the cases.

Native integration with yudoo

Integral Packaging Control is natively integrated with Yudoo, the 4.0 pharmaceutical software suite for the full management of automation processes, digital quality, data analysis and for Track&Trace. A digital hub that can be accessed from anywhere via a secure web interface or dedicated devices.

A scalable and modular suite, including tools for automation (centralized management of production, workflows and timesheet), for the digital quality (creation of paperless systems, support systems for line clearance operations), for data analysis (analysis of production data, business intelligence dashboard, condition monitoring and predictive maintenance) and for Track and Trace (complete solutions for Level 3 and 4 of serialization, monitoring of serialization operations).

Yudoo offers multiple advantages such as the possibility to centralize production formats and data, avoiding duplicates and reducing work time. The suite can connect to existing company systems to retrieve updated data exactly from where they are.
