BFC Blister Filling Control

BFC, designed by Antares Vision for the inspection and correct filling of pharmaceutical blisters, is the result of the experience and the ten-year partnership between IMA, world leader in the design and production of blistering machine, and the worldwide pharmaceutical industry.

The system removes the risk of intermingling, vagrants and/or excess products, as it inspects the complete blister surface, including the part outside of the pocket. The processing power of the unit allows for an extremely accurate control, whose speed is faster than every other blistering machine available on the market: production efficiency is therefore always guaranteed.

BFC can be integrated with all classic controls along the line, TLC on the lidding foil and/or PQC (BarCode Reader and OCV/OCR) on leaflets, cartons and labels, and Box Checking for correct case-packing verification, as well as the Antares Tracking System for the production traceability.
