CI Electronics, one of the world's leading manufacturers of multipurpose tablet/capsule weight sorters for the pharmaceutical industry, has introduced versatile SADE SP units which are 50% faster than their previous models but still offer the accuracy of +/- 1mg. An enhanced feed and sort mechanism improves the product handling and speed.

The SADE SP saves production funds by saving weight rejected batches that may otherwise be discarded. The SADE SP is also the ideal tool for the accurate weight sorting of batches required for clinical trials.

With the increased speed, 24 hour operation and high accuracy the new SADE SP220 and SP120 models help users improve product quality and increase productivity.

The SADE SP units have the unique ability of handling many shapes and sizes of product without the need for special change parts and tooling. The unit, manufactured from quality materials, is easy to dismantle for cleaning and quick to set up again for the next product.

Statistical reports can be output directly to an A4/Letter printer connected via a USB cable. Alternatively, the SP Connect software package enables secure PDF versions of the reports to be transferred to a PC, and the weight data can be exported as Excel spreadsheet files for further analysis.

CI Electronics has designed the new tablet/capsule weight sorters for use in GMP environments and they are supported by comprehensive validation documentation and a full installation and maintenance service.
