Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

Pharmaceutical Printing and Laser Drilling Systems

At Ackley, we design and manufacture the most innovative pharmaceutical printing and laser drilling machines available. So if you need to print a logo onto a tablet, laser mark an identification code onto a softgel, or laser drill apertures into osmotic tablets, Ackley has a machine that will work for you.

In today’s advanced pharmaceutical manufacturing marketplace, your product needs to stand out from the competition. Our expert team designs solutions to drill, mark or print on any sized or shaped tablet, capsule or softgel. Furthermore, we offer unlimited opportunities for brand expression at output rates at the top of the pharmaceutical industry.  For instance, we offer high volume production machines, like the Adjustable Angle Ramp Printer, which can reach output rates of up to 1.2 million / hour as well as smaller, manually-operated machines, like our R&D Laser, which is perfect for small-scale pilot productions.

Our engineers are among the best in the business and work to incorporate the latest technologies into all we do. For example, our vision inspection systems are optional for all machines and feature single tablet rejection, eliminating waste and ensuring that only the best of your products make it to market.  Additionally, we were the first to integrate NIR Near Infrared Inspection technology into our machines, creating a machine with advanced inspection capabilities that is easy to operate, clean and maintain.

From design through production, we work with you to ensure your system is built as specified and delivered on time. In addition, each machine is designed to provide years of dependable performance.  Consequently, it’s no wonder that for over 40 years the world’s top pharmaceutical companies have been choosing Ackley to make their mark on tablets, capsules and softgels of all shapes and sizes.
