Phoenix Imaging, Ltd. manufactures a wide range of products
for Pharmaceutical/Healthcare/Consumer Products testing. Since 1985
Phoenix Imaging has agreed to an industry Code of Ethics and has access to the
most up to date information available, including professional certification,
training and continuing education; state of the art technology; technical
services; industry trends and statistical data; and research and development.
The MIB-100™
Lighting Booths are State-of-the-Art Lighting Systems for Manual Inspection and
have been selected by many corporations as the "Standard" by which all others are
measured. The lighting booths are protected by several patents and
represent the highest quality product in their class. Floor Standing and
Table Top models are designed to fit every requirement.
Manual Inspection Booths:
The
MIB-50™
(table top unit) designed when available laboratory or counter space is at a
premium.
The
MIB-90™
(floor standing unit) designed for optimal inspection of high volume products.
and
The
MIB-100™
(floor standing unit) designed for optimal inspection of all sizes of products.
When large inspection projects are involved Phoenix
Imaging, Ltd
has teamed with FP Developments of Williamstown, New Jersey to provide
large pacer conveyor based systems. These system also use patented
technology similar to the industrial standard MIB-100™ manual inspection booths.
The pacer conveyor systems are available in 2x2, 2X3, 2X4 or 2X5 configurations
(i.e. back to back inspection units using a common feed conveyor).
Particle Standards:
The Referee Level Particle Standards (RLPS™)
provide customers with high quality NIST traceable Particles Standards for
training, inspector qualification, and automated inspection equipment
validation. The RLPS™ sets are available in a wide range sizes from 1ml to
1,000ml in WFI or solution to match the viscosity and color of your product.
The RLPS™ set is offer in multiple levels depending on the container volume and
material. There are a minimum of 25% seed particles of the "Must Reject"
sizes in every set. The standard set contains 100 containers with 36
seeded containers. Each seed particle is measured accurately to ±1µm in
diameter (spherical) or proximal length (irregular or fibers) with NIST
traceable computer controlled micrometer stage. In addition all seed particles
are photographed for record and supplied with a Certificate of Analysis (COA)
with all sets.

--- Manual Inspection & Special Lighting
Booths ---
Manual Inspection Booths (MIB series) offer consistent controlled
lighting environment for improved reliability of manual inspection procedures.
The lighting environments utilized patented technology to insure consistent
environmental conditions from operator station to operator station.
Based on our patented lighting design the luminous flux
within the inspection volume is within ±5% for the life on the source. A
controlled feedback insures the same output level even after lamp replacement.
The design of the MIB-100 makes it a basic tool for discovery of the baseline
for human inspection. The lighting system provides a large (~10 liters) of
volume in which lighting conditions are very consistent. The lighting
intensity can be adjusted between 200 ft-cd (2150 Lux) to 900 ft-cd (9685
Lux).
The standard configuration booth has a
Corian® solid surface armrest with built-in touch screen operator interface
panel. An optional side shelf kit is available for high volume production
applications.
This is the Premium Manual Inspection Booth, there is no substitute!
More Information on MIB-100.
For higher volume work in which a pacer
conveyor is required Phoenix Imaging has teamed with FP Developments
(Williamstown, NJ) to produce the MIB-200 Manual Inspection Station. This
product is offered in a 4 x 2 to 5 x 2 configurations, these are back to back
units and have a infeed pacer conveyor nearest each inspector and a common
"accepted product" conveyor in the center. The illumination system
incorporates the same feedback control as the MIB-100 system. The pacer
conveyor releases product at pre-determined intervals to insure consistent
inspection times. For high production requirements, FP
Developments offer Infeed product tables and disposition
accumulation tables as MIB-200 options.

MIB-50 is Shown in the Standard Configuration)
Other Options available include: Top Visor, Leg
Extensions, Curved Corian© Armrest, Audible Alarms, Monochrome Background (White
or 18% Graycard), Japanese Pharmacopeia Lighting, Lower Mirror Plastic
Protector, and two position footswitch (start inspection cycle, Pass/Fail
results).
 The ParticleScope™
instrument
is a semi-automated inspection system that is capable of detecting particles as
small as 25µm without interfering with the integrity of the container. The
ParticleScope™ instrument represents the State-of-Art in small vials inspection,
it is also capable of cartridges / syringes inspection. The ParticleScope™
instrument not only detects the contamination in the container but it will also
provide accurate measurement of the particle size down to better than 50µm.
The system offers several modes of operation, the two principle modes are the
precise measurement of a single particle or the counting and sizing of multiple
particles. This system has no
equal in non-destructive particle detection capability in small vial for
injection (SVI), cartridges, syringes and ampoules. The inspection system
is available with various size Product Holding Pucks (PHP) to accommodate
holding the containers in the proper position during the inspection cycle.
The standard vial configuration system is capable of performing inspections on
vials from 1 ml to 20 ml in size. A larger illumination cube is available
to hold vials from 20 ml up to 50 ml in size.
Version 2.0 of the product has been released and is
available for purchase as of February 2011. Product evaluation request are
now being taken for products 20 ml and smaller. Be sure to see this instrument at an upcoming
Pharmaceutical Exhibition or call to schedule a visit to the Phoenix Imaging
facility.
