Sepha BlisterScan 101

Listing description

Sepha BlisterScan 101
This is a used machine which has been tested to ensure full functionality.

Leak Test Method
A beam of light scans the individual pockets before and after applying a vacuum. After a set dwell time the blister pockets are scanned again. A Pass or Fail result is given for each individual pocket based on a comparison of the “before” and “after” readings against a pre-determined leakage acceptance level. Further graphical analysis is provided for each individual blister pocket. This enables engineers to trace and identify the source of a leak more easily.

Machine Operation
1. The operator inserts the custom product nest into the tooling holder and closes the drawer.
2. BlisterScan automatically scans the nest and selects the correct test method from its library

of pre-programmed blister formats.
3. The operator enters batch data via the touch screen and keyboard.
4. The operator opens the drawer and places the blister packs in the product nest.
5. The operator closes the drawer to seal the test chamber and presses the start button.
6. BlisterScan runs the test.
7. A Pass or Fail result for each pocket is shown on the screen.
Storage of Result Data
A blister format library is installed onto the system before delivery. New formats can be added via any data storage device, eg USB, CD-Rom.

Tooling
A customised leak test method is developed for each product. Two low-cost product-specific nests are also required, which the system uses to identify the correct test method for that product.

Calibration
BlisterScan is supplied with a calibration tool. Calibration options are selected from the touch screen display.

Product Recognition
Automatically stores product-specific data in pre-designated file locations. BlisterScan verifies the product to be tested before each cycle.
