Inline inspection systems - the key to more quality

Syntegon offers fully integrated solutions for inline inspection of empty vials. Inspection for particles (e.g. splinters) and glass defects (e.g. scratches, cracks) is performed in advance and thus defects are detected before filling and capping.

From empty glass inspection to verification of the printing on the vials, the inspection systems monitor every step of the process.

Our vials inspection portfolio:

• Empty vial inspection
• Stopper seat inspection
• Crimping inspection
• Print verification system
• Lyo cake detection

What is checked on ampoules?

In particular, we check the shape of the ampoule, e.g. collapsed, inflated, open, geometric defects, etc., as well as the black spot. Optionally, color code ring(s), OPC dot and color break ring can also be checked.

Our ampoule inspection portfolio:

• Ampoule geometric inspection
• Black spot detection

When inspecting cartridges, our camera can detect more than just dimpling height and stopper position. It also detects stopper orientation (upside down), cartridge length, cap height (left/right), cap width and filling level.

Our cartridge inspection portfolio:

• Flip-off cap (presence / dimpling) inspection
• Crimping inspection
• Filling level inspection

What is checked on syringes?

When inspecting syringes inline, we check the rod and the plunger (top / side). A single camera with frontlight equipment is used for this purpose. In addition, we offer reliable detection of gap dimensions.

Our syringes inspection portfolio:

• Gap and stopper inspection
• Print verification (label)
