AB PLUS™ Automatic Balance System
The MOCON AB PLUS is a new and improved automatic balance system for weighing capsules, tablets and small parts automatically without operator intervention. Automatically separates out-of-weight product from acceptable product and includes a continuous sorter mode of operation. Outstanding throughput speed with precise repeatability make compliance with stringent government and in-house weight variance controls easier to achieve. This instrument is ideal for clinical batch and initial press start-up sorting. The AB PLUS can be used with any Windows-compatible computer and the statistics are suitable for record keeping or GMP purposes.
MOCON`s AB PLUS Automatic Balance System is a modular design that allows you to start with a master and add up to nine satellite-sorting stations. This added throughput gives you the ability to sort entire batches of product. With the available sorter option and extra-large input hopper, it is even possible to run the AB PLUS overnight. The AB PLUS`s sorter option is superior to competitive units by virtue of its ``jam free`` operation, ease of running into drums without table modification and lower cost. For sorting of multiple products, a multi-sampler option permits up to ten ``source booths`` to be monitored simultaneously throughout the batch run.
VERICAP® Model 4000- Weighing & Sorting System
These systems are the fastest, easiest-to-use, easiest-to-maintain, capsule-weighing sorting systems in the world. Features a single-weight sensor that re-zeros itself between every weight measurement, even at 2000 capsules per minute. The VERICAP Model 4000 runs at line speed with nearly any filler. Applications include:
On-Line Production Uses
- Perform 100% weight inspection of every batch, ensuring total population compliance.
- Sort out problem formulations.
- Sort out empties, splits, dents, chaff, and debris.
- ``Lights Out`` operations with 100% inspection is now possible.
Off-line Uses
- Recover good capsules from rejected or problem batches.
- Recover start-up and shut-down scrap.
R&D/Clinical
- Sort batches into various weight categories to speed up testing efficiency.
- Run small batches through to ensure weight uniformity.
QA/QC
- Use the built-in checkweigher to monitor batch weight compliance
Several new features make the VERICAP model 4000 easier to use and more flexible. Some examples are a Windows-compatible computer with full-color display for nearly unlimited product menus and calibrations, a full statistical package for supervisory personnel, three levels of software with password security, and an available checkweigher system for maximum precision and traceability. A complete validation and documentation support program is available in accordance with the latest FDA requirements for computerized systems.
