   Product Detail


Weighing accuracy and trouble free operation are key factors when considering checkweighing equipment for the pharmaceutical industry. Thermo Scientific offers an automatic in-line checkweigher that designed specifically to meet the exacting standards required by the pharmaceutical industry. The AC9 Rx Pharmaceutical Checkweigher is constructed primarily of stainless steel and built to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for the pharmaceutical marketplace. The fully enclosed weighing zone facilitates the highest standards of sanitation, reinforced by the sealing on all motors, loadcell etc. in their own enclosures.

The AC9 Rx checkweigher can be fully validated in accordance with FDA requirements for electronic signatures. Start-up training and manuals, both paper and electronic, are available to assist in the documentation needed to comply with FDA requirements to accomplish machine validation. The AC9 Rx is able to weigh, depending upon package weight and rate, with accuracies of ±50 milligrams. Speeds up to 500 ppm are achievable.

While designed for the rigors of the pharmaceutical industry, the application of this product doesn’t stop there – industrial users also seeking the same high levels of accuracy and integrity have turned to the AC9 Rx for weighing challenges as diverse as tea-bags, bullets (checking gunpowder content), miniature bearings (checking grease content), bottles of mouthwash and lipstick, among others.
