Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Solutions
Following pharmaceutical regulations can be costly. Automation systems have to read small barcodes and alphanumeric codes at high speeds, making sure that only defect-free pharmaceuticals reach the customer.
Improve Medical Device Manufacturing with Machine Vision
Ensure medical device quality and safeguard compliance with robust barcode scanners, verifiers, and AI-powered machine vision systems.
Inspect, identify, and validate with Cognex
Meet regulatory requirements and ensure product integrity with advanced machine vision solutions. Cognex OCR and barcode scanning technologies reliably decode damaged or obscured expiration dates, lot numbers, and serial codes—critical for compliance with global standards like FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and EU MDR. AI-driven inspection systems detect packaging defects, mislabeling, and assembly errors. The result: automated, high-speed quality control that safeguards patient safety and protects your brand.
Mitigate costs, ensure compliance, increase efficiency
Supply chain transparency and compliance
Read damaged codes and unique device identifiers (UDIs) during high-speed production of prescription vials, medical devices, and other pharmaceutical packaging to meet serialization and regulatory standards.
Thorough packaging validation
Machine vision with AI can verify that label features are present, read characters, and analyze other packaging features, such as seals and blister packs, to make sure they’re free of defects.
Efficient process validation
Validate solutions through installation, operation, and performance qualifications using machine vision to inspect medical devices and pharmaceutical features and generate audit trails.
Streamline regulatory compliance
Ensure compliance with regulations like FDA CFR 21 Part 11 by documenting quality control issues, grading and verifying barcodes, and documenting changes like tasks and job parameters.
Flexible solutions
Cognex uses AI that learns by examining sample images, making it easy to adapt to new products or packages.
