Quality control of pharmaceutical systems

Pharmaceutical systems are manufactured in a filling and packaging facility of a large Swiss pharmaceutical company. White, viscous active substance is applied in quadruple lines on a structured foil in the same colour. Prior to sealing cover and bottom foil together, substance volume and position need to be inspected and the sealing area monitored for any overspills. The flexible image processing solution QualiReader identifies faulty samples with 4 cameras recording 20 images/s, notifies the control unit and logs the data.

The solution was conceived by system designer QualiVision, who also planned and implemented installation in the existing plant. We developed a system qualification concept in cooperation with the customer and prepared the required documentation (IQ, PQ, OQ). Pre-defined check gauges and samples were prepared and delivered for qualification and system review purposes.

The customer was impressed by our successful and timely project delivery, by the technical solution itself, our taking charge of the system and, last not least, by the satisfaction their internal technical departments indicated with the service received.

QualiReader meets the high security and stability requirements of the pharmaceutical industry. QualiVision image processing solutions offer ease of operation as well as data and image storage and extensive statistics, documentation, logging and diagnosis functionality for process optimisation. User authorisations and access rights are set in line with pharmaceutical requirements to support secure and transparent production.
