The iSort, combined with the iLift elevator, is the perfect solution to improve the packaging line efficiency by sorting broken, twins, or capped tablets before entering the feeding system.
Key benefitsInstalled upstream of a blister machine, the iSort has been designed to automatically sort undersized tablets and product fragments that contaminate the feeding system, avoiding jamming and costly downtime on the packaging line. The sorting unit is configured with a specific lifting system (2 different heights available) that elevates the product to the blister line hopper. All the equipment is perfectly connected to a fully closed system that avoids any dust emission.
Furthermore, it can be alternately combined with a tablet deduster or capsule polisher for a complete dedusting/polishing process connected to the packaging line. An ultimate generation of iSort can be fully integrated with the packaging line to bypass space limits easily.
Product features are stored in a very user-friendly HMI in order to guarantee the reproducibility of the process and enable fast and automatic changeover. Only one format part is needed to mechanically adapt the system to sort tablets of any size and shape.
Utmost care has been taken to facilitate the assembly, dismantling, and maintenance without the use of tools.
In combination with a tablet deduster and a Flex Connect connectivity, the iSort can be used as a “C” Containment <OEB4 solution.
