Tablet Inspection and Printing System
TIPS-EX4-CD
Patent
- Compatible with Ultra-fast-drying DRY Ink
- Our originally developed DRY ink can be used with a wide range of tablets from uncoated to film-coated, sugar-coated, etc.
The ultra-fast-drying ink eliminates misprints and ink stain.
- Print Inspection System
- Based on the technology cultivated in our tablet visual inspection systems, Viswill have developed our own print inspection algorithm and can reliably sort out of good tablets and defects.
- Providing the optimized design
- Viswill provide the optimized print design, including printing on both sides of a scored line and printing on shaped tablets.
- Stress-Free Maintenance Function for Inkjet Head
- The inkjet head unit is designed to be easy to attach and remove, allowing easy maintenance through the use of a separately located offline washing unit.
The inkjet head unit is set to the offline washing unit, and the process form ink collecting – cleaning – ink filling is performed automatically by pressing the operation button.
- There are three change over parts
- Changeover for different tablet setting takes only 15 minutes.
The only parts to change are punched plate for larger and smaller tablets rejection and the height gate.
- Easy Dock
- Tablet print inspection unit with inkjets (Easy Dock) that can easily be docked to our TVIS-EX Series tablet visual inspection system.
Docking makes it possible to combine the tablet visual inspection system with tablet print inspection unit.
- PSA and PSW
- The Easy Dock inkjets come in two types—PSA for pigmented ink and PSW for dye-based ink.
