Lock Inspection Systems has unveiled a new metal detection system targeting tablets and capsules
The BottleChek product incorporates Lock’s OPTIX detector management software and signature DDS (Direct Digital Signal) vector image display, designed to aid quick automated product set-ups and a high level of traceability.
The product detects metallic particles at the end of the packaging line.

“Complex product set-ups can be completed with absolute confidence in a matter of seconds thus keeping downtime to a minimum and manufacturers can demonstrate a high level of product accountability and traceability giving them a unique competitive edge in the marketplace.”
