There have been many advances over the past decade in terms of drug product delivery methods. As a result, key developments like unique cartridge based delivery systems have become common. It is well documented that Helium mass spectrometry is most suited for non-porous packaging such as vials and syringes. The same methodology can also be applicable to cartridge based delivery systems. In most cases the key to success is the development of a text fixture device designed and manufactured to the specific cartridge system being testing. These custom fixtures for helium leak detection can be designed to isolate specific areas of interest in the cartridge system.

The XR75 Pharma X-ray is optimized for the quality control of pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmetic products in thin opaque packaging materials that cannot be inspected manually or with visual systems. The leakage prevention curtains are designed to leave a 10 mm-clearance that ensures safety and reduces false rejects caused by product jams or changed orientation during conveyance. The system checks for different product integrity issues simultaneously: products trapped in seals, missing, chipped, or broken tablets in blisters, and the presence of foreign contaminants. The high-resolution X-ray images ensure reliable inspection of the small items at belt speed up to 90 m/min.

METTLER TOLEDO Safeline pharmaceutical metal detector systems are designed to offer maximum flexibility in process areas. A compact footprint enables systems to be inserted into areas where space is restricted. Robust, low profile, fully rotating castors provide ease of mobility, enabling the system to be used in multiple locations. Flexibility is further enhanced by the ability of the metal detection head to be adjusted easily (without the need for tools) in all three axes to suit any configuration.
