The Challenge

A marking systems manufacturer required an integration solution to replace inkjet printers with a laser marking system for date and lot code markings for a major pharmaceutical manufacturer. The system must also provide 100% inspection and verification of each package marked.

The Solution

Premier Automation was challenged to design a control system that integrates vision inspection, PLC control, custom laser communication protocols, and a visual operator interface that made the system easy to use for the factory floor operator.

The Results

Premier Automation designed a control system that integrated 11 vision inspection cameras and 4 laser controls that inspects and verifies 100% of the product, while reducing setup and cleanup time by 2 hours per day. The new system improved inspection accuracy by 95%, resulting in savings of approximately $2 million per year.
