Pharmaceutical Industry Barcode Reading Solution

To protect pharmaceuticals from temperature, light, and other environmental factors while facilitating storage and transportation, drug packaging primarily utilizes materials such as plastic bottles, glass vials, aluminum foil, and paperboard boxes. Glass bottles are predominantly used for liquid formulations including injections, oral solutions, and eye drops. Plastic bottles/canisters commonly package solid-dose forms like capsules, tablets, over-the-counter (OTC) medications, and nutraceuticals. Aluminum foil serves as primary packaging for unit-dose tablets and capsules. Paperboard boxes function as secondary packaging for finished primary-packed products.

Industry Demand

Pharmaceutical Production Line Barcode Scanning Solution


Product Analysis:
Barcodes/QR codes on pharmaceutical bottle packaging are predominantly located on curved surfaces, while box packaging typically features codes on flat side panels, making scanning comparatively straightforward.

Industry Requirements:

1.Cleanliness and Sterility Requirements: Pharmaceutical packaging requires operation in sterile environments, necessitating regular cleaning and maintenance of barcode readers.

2.Diverse Packaging Formats: Drug packaging may include various forms such as bottles, aluminum foil packs, and boxes. Barcode readers must adapt to different packaging types to ensure accurate code recognition, overcoming challenges posed by skewed, distorted, or curved barcodes/QR codes.

3.High-Speed Production Lines: Pharmaceutical manufacturing features highly automated processes with rapid conveyor belt speeds.

4.Non-Fixed Code Orientation: Barcode/QR code positions vary across pharmaceutical packaging, requiring multi-directional reading capability.


Solutions:

1. High-Speed Production Lines: The R-3000 series barcode reader delivers exceptional high-speed decoding performance, supporting production line speeds up to 2.5m/s. Featuring manual focus adjustment and networking capabilities, it ensures reliable operation when multiple readers work simultaneously. Its compact structural design facilitates easy installation and commissioning.

2.Cleaning and Maintenance: With IP65 protection rating, the reader can withstand alcohol/water cleaning without damage, achieving complete waterproof performance.
