(Sepha Ltd: Dundonald, Belfast) -- Global packaging machinery expert, Sepha Ltd, has developed the world’s first tool-less, vision-based leak-detection machine for blister packs. VisionScan has been developed to meet pharmaceutical blister-pack manufacturers’ growing demand for a low-cost, modern, accurate leak-detection alternative to the blue-dye test that can be integrated into their quality control systems. It will be officially launched on May 12, 2011, at Interpack in Düsseldorf, Germany, Europe’s largest packing and process show.

VisionScan from Sepha Ltd uses high-resolution camera imaging technology to detect defects in individual blister pockets and weak seals in fewer than 60 seconds.
