CES-120 - Visual Inspection Machine

The CES Inspection machine is an automatic, high-output visual inspection machine designed to inspect/sort filled capsule products. This machine combines computer image processing technology with in-line CCD cameras to inspect and sort capsules based on customer-set criteria.

Overview of the Visual Inspection Process:

Capsules feed in from the hopper above and feed down through the patented Qualicaps three-drum rectification system. Rectified capsules are transferred to the inspection drum which turns intermittently at high speed. CCD cameras inspect all sides of the capsule. A slight stop of the inspection drum allows the capsules/tablets to turn so that all sides can be inspected. Defective capsules are discharged from the inspection drum. A graphic panel is equipped as a standard feature to allow the operator to view each row of capsules in real time.

Common defects that the CES can detect include appearance defects such as cracks, foreign material, specks, scrapes, deformation or different colors.

Highly skilled engineers at Technophar will design your system according to your specific capsule or tablet needs.
