PakScan

Drug stability testing in laboratories 

R&D departments test materials to ensure the correct materials are used to protect new products from contamination by moisture, air and bacteria.

QA Testing of packaging processes 

Build leak tests into the Quality Assurance procedures for your packaging line. Objective seal testing ensures the integrity of the packaging process.

Reduce production rejects

Minimise reject pouches and sachets and waste disposal created in pharmaceutical production and packaging facilities by carrying out leak testing more frequently. Earlier detection of a leak means line operators can troubleshoot the cause of a leak before a large volume of faulty packages are produced.

Non-destructive test generates less waste and bigger product yield

• The non-contact method is clean and dry, unlike destructive leak testing methods (e.g. Methylene Blue Dye Test) and does not destroy test product or packaging.
• Tested product can be retrieved from faulty packs and repackaged.
• Packs which pass the leak test can be put back onto the production line.

Accurate, validated results for each pouch or sachet

• Detects holes down to 10 microns.
• Automatically stores product-specific data in pre-designated file locations. PakScan verifies the product to be tested before each cycle.
• Totally objective results as no operator intervention is required
• Pass or fail criteria can be set to the same micron level as your existing Methylene Blue Dye Test.
• Result data is stored and can be printed or downloaded to other storage devices for further analysis.

Quicker troubleshooting for line set-up to reduce rejects

• Fast test cycle means that leak testing can be carried out more frequently.
• Earlier detection of leaks allows line operators to investigate the cause of the failed seal more quickly, so fewer faulty packs are produced on the line.

Easy to use

• No special technical skills required.
• Touch screen operator interface.
• 30 second product changeover.
