FOSIS — Flip-Off Seal Inspection System
600 caps/min
18+ Defects
21 CFR Part 11
5 Seal Sizes
100% Inspection
Defect types detected across 3 zones for comprehensive quality assurance
Automatic inspection with zero manual intervention required
Full FDA compliance for pharmaceutical manufacturing standards
A flip-off seal is a tamper-evident closure mechanism used in pharmaceutical packaging. It consists of an aluminium shell that covers and protects the product, with a button designed to be flipped off to access the contents. These seals are critical for maintaining product integrity, sterility, and compliance.
FOSIS uses advanced machine vision and AI deep learning to inspect flip-off seals at high speed. The system automatically detects defects across three zones: the outer aluminium shell, inner surface, and PP button. Defective items are instantly ejected using pneumatic ejection, ensuring 100% quality control.
