The Offline LabelTracker™ allows you to meet serialization and aggregation regulations by printing and inspecting labels offline, for bottles, cartons, cases or pallets. This portable, compact unit
can be installed in label rooms or next to the production line. When
the label is printed, the traceability system verifies its compliance.
After a roll is printed and inspected, it can be installed on the
production line labeler, which means there is no need to modify the line
labeler. The same process can be applied to cartons, cases and pallet
labels. In addition, it is possible to choose between generating serial numbers automatically or uploading them manually. The system also allows you to generate numerous reports, such as EPCIS, reconciliation, batch trail, and audit trail. The unit can be customized or preconfigured.
The Offline Label Tracker™ is part of OPTEL’s Fast Track solutions
that are preconfigured to enable pharmaceutical packaging lines to meet
compliance fast. These solutions are easy to operate and require
minimal training—a perfect solution to meet tight regulatory compliance
deadlines.
HOW IT WORKS
1. The label roll is inserted into the Offline LabelTracker.
2. A unique identification number and/or batch details (expiry date, batch number, etc.) are printed on each label. At this stage, the identification number is classified as “encoded.”
3. After printing, the camera inspects the quality of the printout and the details printed on the label. The details are verified against the batch recipe and the unique identification number is changed to “commissioned.”
4. The OPTEL software validates all the printed details and generates a report of all the activities (encoding, commissioning, destruction, sample, etc.) for production monitoring and auditing.
5. Labels that fail the inspection process are manually removed by the operator.
