One-to-One Photoelectric Detection System

Dedicated Processing for Zero-Error Logic At the massive speeds of 240 BPM, data congestion is a critical risk. Our “One-to-One” architecture assigns a dedicated high-speed processor to each of the 32 channels. This ensures micro-second response times and individual verification for every tablet, eliminating signal lag even when processing over 1,000,000 units per hour.

Dual-Lane High-Speed Gating Module

Perfect Millisecond Synchronization The APC-32 features a specialized dual-lane filling system. Each lane integrates its own high-penetration sensor array with ultra-fast pneumatic cylinder modules. This synchronized “Closed-Loop” logic ensures that discharge gates react at the exact millisecond required, preventing any trailing product and ensuring flawless batch consistency.

Fully Enclosed Vibrating Track Design

Total Contamination Control & GMP Hygiene To manage the friction-generated dust from 32 channels, the APC-32 utilizes a patented, fully enclosed structural design. This shields the product flow from airborne contaminants and prevents fine powder from settling on sensitive electronics, dramatically extending the interval between cleaning cycles.

Ultra-Stable Next-Gen Industrial Platform

Zero-Vibration Engineering for 9am to 11pm Eastern, Monday to Friday Operation Built on a reinforced, massive industrial chassis, the APC-32 absorbs all harmonic micro-vibrations from the 32-track system. This unshakeable stability is critical for maintaining sensor calibration and ensuring the machine remains perfectly silent and stable during high-velocity production runs.

Tool-Less Sleeve-Type Filling Hopper

Rapid Changeover & Zero-Spillage Loading Our innovative “Sleeve-Type” hopper allows for instant, tool-less disassembly of all 32 channels. The design ensures a perfectly centered product drop into multiple bottles simultaneously, preventing bottlenecks and ensuring a clean, efficient filling process.

Pro-face Professional PLC & HMI

Advanced Intelligence & Industry 4.0 Readiness Equipped with a premium Pro-face 10-inch touchscreen, the APC-32 provides multi-level user access, comprehensive audit trails, and seamless data export. It is the intelligent heart of your smart factory, fully compliant with international pharmaceutical data standards.

  • Ultra-Speed 32-Channel Dual-Lane Output: The ultimate powerhouse in electronic counting, delivering an unprecedented 240 bottles/min. Designed for dual-lane synchronized bottling to maximize every inch of your cleanroom floor.

  • 32-Channel Independent “One-to-One” Logic: Equipped with 32 dedicated high-speed microprocessors. This distributed intelligence ensures that even at a throughput of 20,000+ pcs/min, every single unit is verified with absolute precision.

  • Quad-Turbo High-Capacity Dust Extraction: Specifically engineered for the extreme friction of 32-track feeding. Four high-volume vacuum ports combined with a fully enclosed vibration system keep sensors clear for 9am to 11pm Eastern, Monday to Friday continuous operation.

  • “Master-Slave” Dual-Gating Technology: Features an advanced pneumatic gating system that handles two bottles simultaneously. High-response solenoids ensure zero-trailing and perfect batch separation even at sub-second filling cycles.

  • A-Class Modular Sanitary Engineering: Despite its massive scale, the 32-channel assembly uses a tool-less, quick-release design. A complete GMP-grade teardown and deep clean can be executed in under 35 minutes.

  • Pro-face™ Industry 4.0 Hub: A premium control architecture remote diagnostics, and seamless integration with your factory’s MES and SCADA systems.

APC-32 Automatic Electronic Counting Machine FAQ

How does the APC-32 manage 240 bottles per minute without causing bottle jams?

The key is our Dual-Lane Synchronized Gating. Instead of trying to force all 32 channels into a single bottle at impossible speeds, the APC-32 splits the output into two parallel filling lanes. This reduces the linear speed required for each bottle while doubling the total output. Combined with ultrasonic “Anti-Jam” sensors, the machine perfectly synchronizes with high-speed rotary unscramblers to ensure a smooth, continuous flow.

With 32 channels of vibration, how do you prevent noise and mechanical fatigue?

We utilize a Heavy-Duty Harmonic-Absorbing Chassis. The 32-channel electromagnetic vibrators are mounted on a specialized reinforced platform that neutralizes micro-vibrations. This not only makes the machine remarkably quiet for its size but also prevents “vibration drift,” ensuring the infrared sensors remain perfectly aligned and calibrated even after months of 9am to 11pm Eastern, Monday to Friday operation.

What happens if a sensor in one of the 32 channels fails or gets obscured?

The APC-32 features Individual Channel Diagnostics. Through the Pro-face HMI, the operator receives a real-time alert pinpointing exactly which channel (out of 32) is experiencing an issue. Because each channel has its own dedicated processor, a localized cleaning or adjustment can be made quickly, and the “Dual-Dust Compensation” algorithm often allows the machine to self-correct sensitivity before a stop is even required.

How does the "Quad-Turbo" dust system work during mega-batch production?

At 20,000 tablets per minute, dust generation is significant. Our Quad-Turbo system places vacuum extraction points at four critical stages: the hopper intake, the primary separation tracks, the secondary singulation zone, and the final counting edge. This multi-stage vacuuming removes up to 98% of airborne powder before it ever reaches the sensor windows, allowing for massive production runs between maintenance cycles.

Is the APC-32 compliant with global data integrity standards for large-scale pharma?

Absolutely. It is built for EU Annex 11 compliance. The system generates tamper-proof electronic records, maintains a full audit trail of every parameter change, and supports multi-level biometric or password access. For global firms, this ensures that high-speed production always comes with high-level data accountability.

Can we count extremely small micro-tablets (3mm) on this 32-channel titan?

Yes. The 32-channel spread is actually an advantage for small, fragile items. By distributing the load across more tracks, we can use a lower vibration amplitude, which prevents micro-tablets from jumping or chipping. Our high-resolution infrared array is specifically calibrated to detect the leading and trailing edges of products as small as 3mm with ≥99.9% certainty.
