ChecKITprint is a hardware and software kit designed to control the print quality on lidding foil of every material: aluminum, paper, Tyvek® and others.
It can be installed on blister thermoforming machines or on dedicated offline stations for reels printing.
Wide inspection surface
Multiformat and high-speed printing management
Real-time operations
Use of latest generation hardware
Ready for blister and single dose serialization
ChecKITprint manages the printer in real time and perform 100% print quality verification of grey scale or colour artworks. The system includes an all-in-one software solution for vision inspection and track and trace that is ready for blister and single dose serialization.
The system makes use of a Contact Image Sensor (CIS) that is capable to perform the check of wide printing format at high speed and high resolution (600dpi at 75m/min). The latest generation multicore industrial PC customized by SEA Vision has a high computational capacity with processors up to 18 cores and parallel computation features.
This reliable solution ensures real time operation by using in-house written algorithms, enhanced to reduces image processing time.
- PQV control – Print quality verification of the artwork
- OCV/OCR variable data control
- OCV/OCR serialized and not serialized data control
- Code verification
- ANSI Grading in real-time
- Index Code Control
The software of ChecKITprint makes use of cameras for images acquisition, and processes them with a proprietary software installed on an industrial PC. The values measured for each object are compared with reference models and, if one of them is outside the tolerance range, the system automatically sends a signal to the machine, allowing the rejection of the defective blister.
An accurate inspection is granted, in just milliseconds.
Such rapid elaboration times are possible thanks to the system’s SIMD instructions developed in-house, and smart proprietary algorithms (designed upon the concepts of spatial and temporal parallelism) programmed to make the most of all the threads available in the latest generation CPUs.
Since threads divide the core of a CPU into many virtual multiple cores, the usage of all of them allow a computer processor to perform multiple tasks at the same time, and faster.
The result is that the algorithms of Harleblister are able to improve theirself software computing power; reducing the image processing times, while performing more controls, and guaranteeing at the same time the best results in terms of inspection accuracy and safety.
The system is provided with latest genereation industrial computers including a multicore technology and multithreaded processors, in order to take full advantage in terms of elaboration speed and accuracy.
Optics and light units components are specifically designed and assembled for an optimal inspection, and for a perfect integration with the machines mechanical design. With an optimized lighting management, the images acquisition speed is fast and accurate.
The touch-screen displays provided have optimized graphic interface that increases usability and interaction.
The kit is specifically designed for the pharmaceutical market, and it is compliant with the industry regulations, with user access regulated by FDA 21 CFR part 11 and annex 11. All events are registered by the software in an audit trail file to keep track of all the security-relevant activities.
The continuous Software development follows Gamp 5, to always improve product quality and consistency.
The core of ChecKITprint is OCVmulti, the powerful vision system, completely developed in house by SEA Vision, capable to perform in real-time the printed quality verification of the artwork and the check not serialized data and codes. For blisters serialization ChecKITprint uses the power of Tracker, SEA Vision line and machine level pharmaceutical serialization solution.
The solution’s software is natively integrated with Yudoo, the 4.0 pharmaceutical software suite for the full management of automation processes, digital quality, data analysis and for Track&Trace. A digital hub that is everywhere accessible through a secure-access web interface or dedicated devices.
A scalable and modular suite, including tools for automation (centralized management of production, workflows and timesheet), for the digital quality (creation of paperless systems, support systems for line clearance operations), for data analysis (analysis of production data, business intelligence dashboard, condition monitoring and predictive maintenance) and for Track and Trace (complete solutions for Level 3 and 4 of serialization, monitoring of serialization operations).
Yudoo offers multiple advantages such as the possibility to centralize production formats and data, avoiding duplicates and reducing work time. The suite can connect to existing company systems to retrieve updated data exactly from where they are.
SEA Vision provides an extensive product portfolio of natively integrated solutions. Vision, traceability and data management solutions for pharmaceutical packaging lines are developed with a common approach to obtain a seamless ecosystem.
