Typical areas of application in the pharmaceutical industry
Vision systems in the pharmaceutical and medical device industries check whether, for example, labeling and package contents match, package inserts are present, quantities are correct, or defects and material flaws are present. Basler's vision solutions offer the high resolution and fast image transmission rate required for this.
Production control
Camera systems are used in various production steps. They take over the completeness and placement control, the control of separation and selection, the assurance of traceability as well as the serial number coding, application, inspection and recording. And all this in manufacturing processes with a very high speed.
Quality control
The areas of application for vision solutions in quality control include inspection for completeness, dimensional accuracy and material defects as well as other types of defect. The optical inspection system must keep pace with the fast-paced manufacturing process and operate reliably even at high speeds.
Recognition of text, bar and matrix codes
In code recognition, camera systems are used to capture a wide variety of codes, such as Data Matrix codes, but also color codes and plain text (OCR/OCV optical character recognition or verification). A special challenge is presented by the often transparent backgrounds.
