Tube inspection system SIGNUM

The SIGNUM Tube 1DC tube inspection takes place between tube infeed and tube filling. The system checks printed one-dimensional codes, both single and multi-coloured, as well as print marks on aluminium and plastic tubes. This prevents tubes with incorrect printing from being filled in the first place and increases productivity on the line. Inspection criteria and objects Testable objects: Aluminium tubes Plastic tubes Test criteria Pharmacode Mini Pharmacode Printing marks ■Advantages of 1DC tube inspection Integration into the newest QI visualisation Visualisation of the current reading and a history of the 15 previous results Ideal add-on to existing packaging lines Good and bad signals are evaluated using signals in the integrated shift register Extraordinarily high speed and reaction time after the reading ■Facts of the 1DC tube inspection solution The SIGNUM Tube 1DC application is carried out by the SIGNUM 1DC one-dimensional code inspection system. Pharmacodes, minipharmacodes and print marks printed on tubes are checked. Software Pharmacodes, minipharmacodes and print marks can be read by making the appropriate settings in the menu selection, which is designed to be particularly user-friendly and is linked to the latest QI software architecture. The reading result is transmitted in real time to the machine control. The reading of printed pharmaceutical codes can be carried out with this code reader at positions where a camera solution is not possible. Distortions of the code, which can occur due to the curvature of the tube, are compensated for by the software.
