InspeCaps 150

InspeCaps 150 is a single-file vision inspection system for two-piece hard-gelatin capsules. It inspects up to 120,000 capsules per hour, verifying all visual characteristics and automatically removing defective capsules and foreign objects from the product stream. It can handle virtually every type of capsule, and achieves full 360-deg. inspection of capsules using a patent-pending process that captures simultaneous views with overlap. This unique imaging process enables InspeCaps 150 to reject capsules for all appearance problems, including nonconforming color, dirt, or scratches, as well as shape problems, such as a dented end, a smashed section, a double cap, or bending. It offers precise analysis of printing regardless of print position and orientation, allowing the system to reject capsules with no print or incorrect, incomplete, blurry, distorted, or faint print. It also inspects the integrity of tamper-evident sealing bands, identifying and removing banding problems such as the absence of the band and irregular and incomplete bands.
