NETRA VS6 Automatic Tablet Capsule Inspection System

Operation

  • Funnel hopper
  • Main hopper
  • Vibratory feeder
  • Rotary feeder
  • Conveyor I
  • Conveyor II
  • 2 + 4 Industrial Vision Cameras (C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6)
  • Pneumatic rejection points (R1 & R2)

The product is fed into the funnel hopper, from where it passes into the main hopper.

Through the main hopper, it lands on the vibratory feeder.
The vibratory feeder carries the product to the rotary feeder. The vibratory feeder is a linear vibrator, for maintaining consistent speed of the product through its course.

The rotary feeder is Servo operated, thereby ensuring the precise movement of the product.

The product arrives on conveyor I from the rotary feeder. The conveyor I is designed with an internal vacuum, which holds the product in place. It is Servo operated too, for preciseness of movement of the product along the inspection zone.

On conveyor I, the product is inspected by five cameras (C1 – C5), which have been placed strategically to capture its image from top (C1) and all four sides of its edges (C2 – C5).

If any defect is perceived, the defective product is discarded through the adjacent rejection point (R1) by pneumatic operation, into an internally provided rejection bin.

The flawless product is conveyed over by vacuum to conveyor II.
On conveyor II, the product is inspected for defects / variation in its lower surface, by the last camera (C6), strategically placed on this conveyor.

If any defect is perceived by C6, the defective product is discarded through the adjacent rejection point (R2) by pneumatic operation, into the same rejection bin.

Thus, from cameras C1 through C6, the product is subjected to an inspection of 360°.

Each camera is provided with its respective image processing control, that enables the processing of the image simultaneously with its capturing, and, feeds the result to the PLC and the main computer. This occurs within a few milliseconds, so that the rejection and passing of the product are done at a very high speed.
The passed product is collected into a separate bin, internally provided.

Both these bins, the rejection as well as passed, are placed at the discharge end of the machine.

Questions

NETRA VS6 can inspect:

  • Round tablets of diameter 5mm – 20mm
  • Oval tablets of width 3mm – 12mm and maximum length 30mm

Yes

The change parts depend upon the width/diameter and the thickness/height of the tablet. The length of the tablet/capsule does not make a difference. To sum it up, the change parts are not product-specific, they are dimension-specific.

10-15 minutes suffice.

Yes – recipe creation is required, and it is a one-time activity for every product.

Yes

1000

Yes

No – For inspection of soft gelatin capsules and/or tablets, Accura’s BRAHMI – the automated All Pills Inspecting Machine is available.

The tablets/capsules arrive on the inspection belt from the rotary wheel. At times, a few tablets/capsules come so close to the prior tablet /capsule as if almost stuck to it. In such a case, only the prior tablet/capsule gets inspected completely and the consecutive, stuck-together one may get rejected if its image is taken. Hence, to prevent false rejection, such tablets/capsules are collected as uninspected and swept into the uninspected compartment provided.
