HIGH-SPEED ITEM-LEVEL SERIALIZATION, CODING, AND VERIFICATION SYSTEM

VVTechnologiesINC’s ItemUnit™ is an advanced modular serialization and inspection solution designed to support high-speed pharmaceutical packaging operations. The system combines precision product handling, inline vision inspection, and flexible printing technologies in a compact platform for accurate item-level coding, serialization, and verification.

Equipped with a multi-lane, servo-driven conveyor system, ItemUnit™ is designed to support high-volume production while maintaining consistent product handling and inspection accuracy. Its flexible coding options, including Thermal Inkjet (TIJ) and CO₂ laser printing, allow manufacturers to select suitable marking technologies based on their packaging materials and production requirements.

The integrated vision inspection system automatically reads and verifies serialized codes during production, helping ensure accurate product identification and traceability throughout the pharmaceutical packaging process.

HIGH-SPEED AND FLEXIBLE PRODUCT HANDLING

ItemUnit™ incorporates a precision-engineered, servo-driven transport system designed to handle individual products efficiently across multiple lanes.

Its adjustable conveyor speed, adaptable transfer height, and flexible configuration support different packaging formats and production requirements. The system is designed to accommodate high-volume item-level serialization while maintaining controlled product movement and reliable inspection performance.

ADVANCED PRINTING AND VISION INSPECTION

The system integrates advanced coding technology with automated vision inspection to ensure accurate printing and verification of serialized information on individual products.

Its printing options include Thermal Inkjet and CO₂ laser coding, providing flexibility for different packaging materials and marking requirements.

The integrated vision system verifies printed codes directly on the production line. Optional dual-camera inspection enables verification at multiple positions, helping manufacturers maintain consistent code readability and serialization accuracy.

Configurable inspection software and integrated label design tools simplify product changeovers and help reduce the need for complex inspection reconfiguration.

RELIABLE SERIALIZATION AND REGULATORY SUPPORT

ItemUnit™ is designed to support pharmaceutical manufacturers in implementing item-level serialization and product traceability across their packaging operations.

By combining automated coding, code verification, and controlled product rejection, the system helps reduce serialization errors and improve packaging quality. Its capabilities support manufacturers working toward applicable global track-and-trace requirements, including EU FMD and DSCSA.
