Inspection

Perfectly matched: Our machine platforms

You may want to check numerous defect criteria and do so at top speed and around the clock. Alternatively, you may have very small batches and value a fully automatic inspection process that is very flexible. We offer the right machine platform for every production environment, no matter how diverse. We configure these platforms precisely to your needs.

Körber inspection machines: Seamless transition from R&D to manufacturing phase

CS, MS, VI: Our basic platforms for automatic high-speed inspection of vials, ampules and cartridges

All three standard machines inspect up to 600 containers/minute, in addition to vials, ampules and cartridges with liquid contents, also vials with lyo product. Depending on the inspection requirements, we can integrate any inspection technology of our Seidenader Solutions as well as add a machine module for leak testing.

The machines differ in the dimensions of the footprint and thus offer space for inspection carousels of different sizes and correspondingly more or fewer inspection stations.

How much inspection do you need? 

We evaluate your product, check the available space in production and adapt everything to your requirements. Together we find the optimal inspection solution for your production line.

Our two standard machines for syringe inspection can be perfectly combined with our de-/renesters for Seidenader DE.SY.RE. Depending on the inspection requirement, we can integrate any inspection technology of our Seidenader Solutions.

The machines differ in maximum throughput and in the size of the footprint, thus offering different amounts of space for more or fewer inspection stations.

Switch 75: Flexible inspection platform for small batches. Switch your inspection from syringes to vials in a snap.

Our Switch 75 comes standard with an integrated de-/renester system, but can also be integrated into your production line via turn table or directly inline. Two inspection carousels allow the inspection of vials and syringes on one machine.

With up to 12 camera stations, you can check all important defect criteria for liquid as well as freeze-dried products - from particles in the product to numerous cosmetic defects to the tightness of vials filled with lyo product.

How flexible do you want your inspection machine to be? 

Inspecting vials in the morning, and syringes in the afternoon? Our Switch 75 masters both. Inspect as you wish - we configure the machine to perfectly suit your production requirements.

Switch 350: Flexible high-performance inspection up to 350 containers per minute for syringes and vials – on one single machine

With our Switch 350, you benefit from the advantages of two machine concepts: We have combined the modularity, handling options and technologies of our well proven standard platforms with the flexibility of our small batch inspection machine to run syringes and vials on one and the same machine – with nesting system for syringes and vials alike. 

Buy one inspection machine instead of two – and save up to 40% of investment.

For example, you fill syringes and have them inspected for particles, cosmetic defects, and leaks, and for pierced needle shields? Since the syringes are nested, you also need a de/renesting system for the inspection machine.

Another one of your products is filled into vials on the same filling line and is, of course, also inspected for particles, cosmetic defects and leaks.

This used to require two high-performance inspection machines, one for syringes and one for vials.

lOur Switch 350 is perfectly adapted to the market trend of flexible production lines where vials and syringes are filled alternately. You no longer need two inspection machines – just switch the format parts and get started.r
