To increase productivity and maximise product quality, Schwarz Pharma selected the Cremer Double Tablet Counter from NJM/CLI for both their high-speed production lines.

Each Cremer Double features two counting heads and a two-lane conveyor that fills up to 110 bottles per minute, based on 100-count bottles, within a space-saving 12ft footprint.

"When it was time to replace our old tablet counters, we began looking for new technology that would achieve our high line speeds and produce accurate results," noted James Cognata, Project Engineer at Schwarz Pharma.

"We are confident that Cremer has the best tablet counters".

" You can have the dustiest product and these things will not miss a count".

" Since we installed the Cremer systems, we have been operating with zero percent defect on count.

Schwarz Pharma packages over 150 different products with their Cremer Tablet Counters, handling over 70 different tablets and capsules from 6 mm to 18 mm in size and filling bottles ranging from 30cc to 2000cc.

A flexible filler is necessary and quick changeovers are critical.

Up to 300 product recipes can be pre-programmed, enabling product-specific machine and control parameters to be downloaded for fast and simple set-up and changeover.

"The Cremer Double is very easy to take apart to clean".

" With a spare set of product contact parts, we are able to change over the tablet counters in less than 20 minutes," said Cognata.
