Inspection Systems
Pharmaceutical print inspection
JLI Pharmaceutical Inspection Systems
are custom designed turnkey solutions for measuring dimensions, shapes,
surface defects, printing etc.
JLI’s pharmaceutical systems cover a wide range of product types and production processes.
All equipment is designed for the actual environment. This means extraordinary reliability, fail-safe
operation and may include high speed and superior accuracy.
Features/Benefits

Molded parts
Production of medical devices is a critical manufacturing
process. Making faulty components can cause bodily harm
or even death. Precise inspection and accurate records are
essential and demanded by the Food and Drug Administration.
• Dimensional accuracy < 1 micron
• Surface / visual errors are detected with very small contrast
deviations
• Calculates statistical data and displays trend information
• Preventive maintenance
Dimensional and surface inspection carried out on a plastic molded part
Tablet dispensers
A system for inspection of packed tablets. The system
inspects tablet dispensers to detect wrong colored tablets,
broken or missing tablets, and missing or defective covers
on the dispenser.
• Color inspection
• Wide variety of tablet types can be integrated
• Production report generated at batch level
Tablet dispenser
Print control
Print inspection systems to medical standard. Integrated with production machinery using either
indexed or continuous motion.

•
Optimized for printing process: silk screen, tampon, off-set or laser
Choose either a built-in teach function or manual settings
180 or 360 degree coverage on round objects
Feedback option for adjusting inking process
Individual statistics for sheets, blankets, mandrels, print heads etc.
Caps
Pharmaceutical caps are inspected for defects in the rubber
insert and in the aluminum cap. As an add-on the system
can inspect the holes in the rubber band from which the
rubber insert is punched.
• Measures the shape and dimension of the aluminium part
• Measures surface errors with an accuracy of 0.01 mm in the
rubber inserts
• Add-ons include color inspection of rubber and hole inspection
• Integrated SPC gives excellent production management possibilities
Cap mounted on ampoule
Ampoules
Quality assurance of glass ampoules is a vital element of
the production process. The Chips & Cracks inspection
verifies the completeness of each ampoule, and can be a
substantial improvement in fault detection.

•
Special designed lighting
Locates defects with an accuracy of 10 microns
High speed application
Production report is automatically generated at batch level
Pharmaceutical ampoule
Catheters
Catheter inspection can be integrated on existing production machinery. Special optics makes it possible to
inspect 360 with only a 120 degree rotation.
•
•
•
•
Typical inspections include: tip, eyes and surface impurities
Systems are available for inspection of coated catheters
Batch controlled
Production report for documentation purposes
Needles
A system for precision measurements of details on needles. The system inspects a macro area of the needle tip, and
detects dimensional errors and the surface of the needlepoint after grinding. Precision is better than one micron.

Can be integrated with automatic handling equipment
Detects burrs from multiple angles
Single camera system
High accuracy < 1 micron
Measurements on needle tip
Other Applications
Other applications are developed on request. Give us a challenge!
