IS-500 - Tablet Imprinting System with Inspection Function


The IS-500 is a tablet imprinting machine with additional inspection capabilities to sort out defective tablets due to appearance or print. The exceptional design of this machine, which complies with cGMP guidelines, provides extremely smooth handling and transportation for different sized and shaped tablets. This machine offers one-side printing of both coated and film-coated tablets that range in size from 5 – 11 mm (diameter) and 2 – 5 mm (thickness) (round). The IS-500 can print and inspect 500,000 tablets/hour.

Features of the IS-500 include

  • No operator required
  • High-speed inspection
  • Easy conversion
  • Quick-change, magnetic slats
  • Automatic cleaning of rubber roll
  • Reliable 100% inspection


Overview of Imprint/Inspection Process:
Tablets put into a positioning drum are oriented into a horizontal position for the first front inspection. The front surface of the tablets are inspected by CCD cameras prior to the printing process. Characters are printed on the front surface of the tablets by offset-gravure method. An air blower quickly dries the print. The printed tablets are then inspected for rear surface condition and quality of print. When a tablet is defective (front surface, rear surface or print) it will be discharged and only acceptable tablets will pass out from the IS-500.

Common defects that the IS-500 can detect are appearance defects such as cracks, foreign material, specks, scrapes, deformation, different color. Print defects include insufficient characters, no print, blurred characters or position sliding.
