A checkweigher that also sorts tablets
The MG2 Selekta (photo) is a high-speed checkweigher and sorting machine for the production of tablets. Depending on the product, Selekta can check up to 500,000 units per hour, faster than anything else currently on the market, says the company. This technology is designed for seamless integration with existing tabletting equipment that allows for continuous process manufacturing. The Selekta incorporates the main benefits of the company’s Multi-NETT weight control system. Multi-NETT affords the ability to monitor and control net weight in low-dose applications (5–25 mg). The system also can singularly monitor and control the net weight of multiple components dosed into a capsule, and rejects any capsule that exceeds preset weight tolerances. — MG America, Inc., Fairfield, N.J.
