Technical highlights and design advantages
Every detail of the PWL Series is engineered to maximize operator comfort and inspection accuracy. We combine a highly ergonomic inspection place with intuitive controls to create an optimal working environment:
- Flexible layouts: available in single or dual-cabin (back-to-back) configurations to suit your floorplan
- Ergonomic posture: features a standard working height of 900 ± 25 mm and adjustable object inclination (20°– 30°) for comfortable, prolonged use
- Reject systems: configurable with either manual or automatic rejection mechanisms.
- Adjustable illumination: fully adjustable LED light sources
- Tyndall effect: a specialized Tyndall light source designed to make reflecting particles highly visible and easy to detect
- 360° visibility: equipped with a high magnifying lens and adjustable mirrors positioned above and below the transport lane
- User-Friendly HMI: a 17” color touchscreen monitor with an external keyboard provides seamless and easy control over all machine operations
Specialized configuration for syringes (PWL SY)
Inspecting pre-filled syringes requires precise handling to ensure uncompromised quality and patient safety. The PWL SY model is specifically tailored to address these unique packaging challenges:
- Needle-up orientation: syringes are deliberately inspected with the needle pointing up. This orientation provides a critical advantage to avoid hidden particles from remaining undetected under the cap.
- Seamless in-line automation: to streamline your production flow, an automatic denester is available to load the syringes directly on the infeed path. Additionally, an automatic renester in-line connection can be integrated to effortlessly connect the visual inspection phase with your broader manufacturing line.
