Small Batch Tablet Laser Drilling and Marking Machine
Multi-functional system designed to laser drill apertures or engrave logos in the outer coating of pharmaceutical products. This manual system uses a FDA compliant plastic paddle with custom machined pockets that can hold up to 25 products.
Products are placed into the pockets, then the filled paddle is placed into the laser chamber. Next, the operator selects on the HMI screen which pocket locations to drill or engrave, then presses the Fire button.
Perfect for dissolution testing and clinical trials, the R&D Laser accommodates products of all shapes and sizes – tablets, caplets, capsules and softgels. It can also manage multiple product recipes. From laser writing softgels to laser drilling multi-layer controlled release tablets, the R&D Laser delivers consistent, high quality output for your small batch and Research & Development needs.
