PPKMARKPharmaceutical packaging marking: code plus blister integrity control
The camera checks both DataMatrix readability and the pack itself — blister integrity and the presence of every tablet. A pneumatic pusher removes a defective blister from the belt: the operator does not sort rejects by hand.
Line components
What goes on a blister line
PPKVision machine vision
The camera does two jobs at once: it reads the DataMatrix and looks at the pack itself — seal seams, blister integrity, every tablet in place.
Neural network on a Hailo accelerator
Deviations from the reference are found by a neural network on a hardware accelerator: the analysis takes milliseconds, so inspection runs at line speed rather than on samples.
Targeted rejection
The pneumatic pusher removes exactly the blister that passed the sensor with a defect. The verdict is tied to that specific item, so neighbours are left alone even in a dense flow.
Event log
Every removed item goes into the log, which is what you use later to find the cause and answer audit questions.
Why us
For pharma, reading the code is not enough
You need inspection of the packaging itself and a documented trail for every removed item. The machine vision is ours, so we tune the inspection logic to your standard.
Our own workshop
We make mounts and non-standard assemblies ourselves — no waiting for a supplier and no bending your line to fit an off-the-shelf solution.
Own software
PPKLink and PPKVision are ours. 1C integration needs no outside developers.
One contractor
Design, supply, installation, commissioning and shift training in one pair of hands — no passing the buck.
Since 2017
Official Chestny Znak partner. The PPK LASER group has been working since 2013 and serves over 1,000 corporate customers.
FAQ
Answers before the call
What does the camera see besides the code?
Sealing seams, blister integrity, presence of every tablet. Not sampled — every blister.
What happens to a defective blister?
A pneumatic pusher removes it. It knocks out exactly the blister in which the camera found a defect — in a dense flow the neighbours are not touched. Every case is logged.
Do we need validation for pharmaceutical requirements?
Validation is a separate project — a separate scope of work with its own documentation.
Will manual inspection remain?
No hand sorting on the line: an item with an unread code or a pack defect is removed automatically, and the causes are reviewed from the event log.
