New vial and container inspection platform combines visual analysis and leak detection

The AIM9 inspection platform combines visual inspection and leak detection with outputs of up to 600 vials per minute, helping pharmaceutical manufacturers and CMOs achieve the highest inspection and product quality. A further challenge for pharmaceutical manufacturers and CMOs lies in handling multiple container sizes and products. Therefore, the new AIM9 was designed with enhanced flexibility. The platform accommodates vial sizes from 2 to 250 milliliters and enables easy changeovers, as well as fast adaptation for new products. The seamless AIM9 platform provides fully integrated Container Closure Integrity Testing (CCIT), offering headspace gas analysis, high‑voltage leak detection, or both, without the need for additional equipment. Together with the full range of visual inspection technologies for the detection of particles and cosmetic defects, the new AIM9 ensures maximum detection and minimal false reject rates. In addition to the patented SD technology, area and line-scan cameras, users can further opt for deep learning integration or the bubble masking tool, which distinguishes harmless bubbles from harmful defects. — Syntegon Technology GmbH, Crailsheim, Germany
