In order to ensure the correct weight of individual tablets or capsules, Quay relies on a Sade benchtop tablet and capsule weight sorter from CI Electronics, allowing it to concentrate on quality and growing the business.
The Sade Benchtop weight sorter was purchased early in 2004 to provide the knowledge needed to be certain of individual weights and also savings in time and money.
As Rob Harris explains: "With first stage clinical trials, every single item has to be checked and, previously, this was done manually - one hundred per cent inspection by hand".
He continues, "The Sade weight sorter can save up to two days work on a single project, provides accuracy and removes the headache of human error".
With its small footprint and competitive price, the Sade Benchtop unit is ideal for smaller batches or samples, says CI.
It is easily adapted for different sizes and shapes and can be cleaned down with the minimum of effort between batches.
Using the Sade Benchtop has offered Quay Pharmaceutical additional benefits over and above the original criteria.
"With clinical trials regulations being tightened, the Sade has provided us with an extra safety net" says Harris.
"We know at any one time that our processes are good and we can complete projects much sooner without waiting for the manual checks.".
