Pouch Inspector

Fast, accurate and user-friendly

The Pouch Inspector is a stand-alone inspection machine that scans the packaged pouches, verifies the content of the pouches with the ordered medication and customer details and documents the results for further reference.

A roll of pouch strips is placed on the Pouch Inspector. It will instant scan at a speed of 3-5 pouches per second (180-300 pouches per minute). No need to push a button, just swipe it through the machine.

The content of each pouch is automatically compared with the prescribed medication and customer details and the results are stored in the database for processing and documentation.

Unknown tablets are marked and automatically integrated into the analysis without process interruption. The inspection status of each pouch is immediately displayed on the screen. The results of an order can either be displayed on the touchscreen or at a separate PC and the pouches are accordingly manually checked and corrected before the order is approved for dispatch.

3. Cut&Roll

Rolls inspected pouches back onto a spool.

This combination rolls the pouches, after inspection, back onto a spool. The benefit is that the inspected pouches are neatly stored and can easily be brought to the repair desk.

Pouches are dropped as string in a container.

In combination with the Pi Transport, the pouches are transported through the Pouch Inspector and drops a string of pouches in a container besides the table. No need to unwind a spool to find the pouch for repair.

Automatically processes and sorts Pouches.

Cut&Roll selects, cuts and separates pouch strips automatically. Selecting criteria can be set as desired. Pouches are rolled neatly and separated into a ‘alarm’ or ‘alarm-free’ container. The ‘alarm-free’ rolls are immediately ready for dispatch.

Verify, validate and archive

After the Pouch Inspector carries out the inspection, the results can be verified, validated and archived in a very intuitive manner.

Pi Web operates based on a To-Do list. Validated batches are placed on the list to finalize. Missing, surplus, damaged and incorrect medication are shown per batch, per patient and per pouch. And any batches with alarms can be immediately corrected and validated.

The web application, Pi Web, can be installed on any PC in the network. This makes it even easier and faster to control everything from different locations.
