WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF INSPECTION TECHNOLOGY
Inspection is a key quality safeguard for pharmaceuticals, and contributes significantly to patient safety. It also helps to improve the entire production process.
Pharmaceutical manufacturers must pay attention to sterile filling and material integrity to ensure the highest product safety. The containers run through many different stages, i.e. washing, siliconizing, sterilizing, filling and closing. They are exposed to different temperatures, pressures, and high-speed movements. This is where inspection technology comes into play.

Visual inspection expertise
Innovative and highly accurate inspection: Camera-based inspection
Our high-resolution camera systems are robust devices for detection of cosmetic defects and particles in low- to high-viscosity products.
Reliable and easy to validate: Static division (SD) technology
A light transmission-based method for moving particle inspection in liquid products.
-
Difficult to inspect products
Challenging product characteristics
Some products limit the ability to detect particles. They require advanced know-how and technology.

Container closure integrity testing
Container leaks might lead to a change in the active pharmaceutical ingredient: drugs can lose their efficacy or lead to unexpected side effects.
Container defects:
Laser-based headspace analysis
Measurement of absorption by oxygen and/or moisture molecules to detect permanent and temporary leaks.
- Very gentle, non-destructive measuring method
- Preferred technology for products filled under vacuum or inert gas
High voltage leak detection
This container closure integrity testing is based on electrical conductivity measurements. High voltage is applied across the containers filled with conductive liquids. An elevated electrical current indicates a leak.
- Reliable leak testing even for filling products with low conductance and minimal contents
- Holistic measuring system to cover the whole container surface
-
Combined machine platforms
