An industry first, the newly designed VIP Laser Drill + NIR simplifies osmotic drug delivery by combining near-infrared Spectroscopy alongside tablet drilling and vision inspection. Built for modified-release tablets, caplets and canister LCTs – this single-lane osmotic laser drilling machine verifies the integrity of a tablet’s outer membrane using two NIR spectrometers, prior to laser drilling and vision inspection. Once a tablet is verified, two CO2 air-cooled lasers drill the correct side of each tablet with one or more apertures. Then, vision inspection confirms each aperture, while Ackley’s fail-safe rejection system separates tablets with membrane defects from drill defects.
This precision laser pharmaceutical tablet drilling machine drills and inspects up to 60,000 products per hour and is a Class I Laser Product. Designed under FDA, cGMP and CE regulations, the VIP Laser + NIR is versitile, affordable and provides effortless continuous operation with minimal user interaction or downtime. Perfect for both pilot and production runs, it features a small footprint, user-friendly touchscreen, multiple recipe management and quick removal change parts.
