Pharmaceutical Inspection Equipment

Product Protection within the pharmaceutical industry is tightly controlled by regulation and legislation. Manufacturers have therefore been obliged by the requirements of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Medicines Control Agency (MCA) to adopt the safest and most stringent standards and protocols. Quality and integrity are the fundamental requirements for products from the pharmaceutical industry. Effective product protection is pivotal throughout manufacture and packaging in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industry, for ethical pharmaceutical formulations, generic equivalents, or over-the-counter solid dosage products

Lock Inspection Systems has responded to the specific and specialised needs of this industry by producing a wide range of purpose-designed metal detectors, which guarantee the highest standards of inspection. Lock's data management systems allow for the collection and storage of product quality records, and also come complete with a validation specification and operating/installation manuals.

Our Products

INSIGHT Range
Designed to exceed stringent industry demands, the INSIGHT PH pharmaceutical metal detector excels on all measures. Highly resistant to vibration, the integrated digital search head and sophisticated OPTIX detector management software enable the INSIGHT PH to clearly display the detailed product profile needed to achieve perfect product setups using Lock's unique DDS (Direct Digital Signal) vector diagram. This guarantees detection and rejection of minute metal fragments, while maintaining high productivity.

These core technologies are complemented by an array of innovative features that deliver tangible benefits to the manufacturer at key stages in their production process

Met30+ pharmaceutical metal detector

The DIGITAL MET 30+ Pharmaceutical machine is the metal detector of choice for the world's leading pharmaceutical companies. It can detect and reject metallic particles in pharmaceutical production lines at speeds of up to 30,000 tablets or capsules per minute. Where the MET 30+ really excels is in its ability to create stable and sensitive setups with difficult product applications

Met 30+ Vertical Fall pharmaceutical metal detector
Lock's MET 30+ UNIVERSAL pharmaceutical machine is the most sensitive metal detector in the range. Offering unparallelled stability and accuracy in the detection of metallic contaminants in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and beauty products, the MET30+ UNIVERSAL can detect and reject microscopic particles in process. Even in difficult applications, such as ingredients with high iron content or bulk presentations, Lock's innovative technology continues to provide exceptional performance and reliability. Robustly designed, the MET 30+ UNIVERSAL pharmaceutical unit is easy to move into or out of position for cleaning.
