Pharmaceutical Products and Medical Device Inspection

Safety and security requirements are paramount for the production of pharmaceutical products medical devices and systems.

X-Ray inspection enables  you to detect  hidden problems,  and to  confirm  product integrity  at the end of the process when the product is packaged.

 

 

Pack Completeness

Quality control measures such as pack completeness, and correct fill level detection are an important requirement. Checking through opaque packs or containers as a final inspection process is the ultimate in online quality control.

3DX-Ray's systems can check the fill of blister packs, dentify missing tablets or capsules, check the presence of leaflets in a carton, and ensure the integrity of the product even when everything is inside the packaging.

Fill Control

Over-fill and under-fill detection are of benefit to ensure correct dosage has been supplied to the consumer. X-Ray can be used as final inspection to eliminate the need for gravimetric or volumetric checking. 

Medical Device Completeness and Alignment

X-ray systems can accurately measures linear distances and alignments and can create images of internal components of a device during the production process. These images are then processed online to ensure all correct components of a device are present and are aligned accurately to ensure their functionality .The system can provide high quality data for SCADA/SPC data collection and pass/fail data for quality control.

Contamination Detection

X-ray inspection can detect decontaminants in solids, liquid or cream and using x-ray can ensure product safety and security.

Foil and metallised film used in pharmaceutical packaging, make contamination difficult to detect using conventional metal detection techniques, particularly if it is a stainless steel or non-metallic contaminant. X-ray inspection enables you to check 100% production of these packages online to ensure no contamination or foreign bodies are present.
X-Ray inspection can detect a wide range of contaminants including:

  • Ferrous materials
  • Non-ferrous materials
  • Non-ferrous metals in foil,
  • Stainless Steel
  • Stone
  • Glass
  • Wood
  • High Density Plastic such as PVC, PTFE
  • Ceramic

X-ray systems

3DX-Ray Ltd can provide integrated or stand-alone units for continuous or batch production as well as pilot plants and laboratory systems.

Off-line inspection  can be used to inspect and recover products from a recalled batch.

In-line inspection can inspect 100% of products at  full production  line speed.
