Overview and benefits

VitaCount 12 Overview

Designed around proven product feed technology and the latest in sensor and control innovation, it is ideal for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers handling small to large batch production.

The system uses 12 linear vibratory tracks to feed product from bulk into a controlled single-file stream. A three-tray feed format ensures consistent product flow and gentle handling. The integrated high-speed infrared counting sensors scan at 34,000 times per second and include onboard microprocessors that automatically adjust to changing conditions such as dust, humidity, or light variation, maintaining precise counts without the need for routine calibration.

High-Speed, Self-Adjusting Infrared Counting

Up to 45 bottles per minute.

Touchscreen Control

Touchscreen interface with four access levels.

Tool-free contact part removal

Simplified cleaning, format changes, and setup.

Microprocessor-based

Product library capable of storing unlimited product recipes

Control and Compliance

Controlled via a touchscreen interface, the system offers full access to product and machine parameters, with a product library capable of storing unlimited product recipes.

Four configurable access levels allow controlled entry for operators, supervisors, and engineers, enabling full IQ/OQ validation and regulatory compliance.

Speed

The VitaCount 12 is capable of speeds up to 45 bottles per minute and accurately counts all solid dose forms, including transparent soft gels, hard gelatine capsules, and tablets as small as 2.5 mm. An onboard dust extraction system helps ensure performance in dusty environments and protects sensitive components.

Optional Configurations

Optional conveyor integration, reject control, and statistical data reporting further enhance its suitability for production and quality control environments. Tool-free disassembly of contact parts and telescopic bottle chute adjustment simplify cleaning, format changes, and setup.
