SWIFT-EYE featured in the Pharmaceutical Manufacturing magazine
Our SWIFT-EYE technology was recognized by dr. Emil W. Ciurczak, one of the world's most esteemed PAT experts. In his article "PAT: The Quest for Control" in December 2018 issue of the Pharmaceutical Manufacturing magazine, dr. Ciurczak highlights the features and benefits of our technology and places SWIFT-EYE among the best new products on the market.
SWIFT-EYE
New generation PAT tool for
in-line monitoring of
pellet coating processes
SWIFT-EYE is a high-performance visual imaging PAT tool that offers in-line and real-time inspection of pellets in production processes. Our own fast and accurate image analysis allows for excellent statistical strength in real-time (1 million pellets per minute) along with high accuracy of pellet measurements. Unique to SWIFT-EYE, both intra- and inter-pellet coating uniformity is available. In our easy-to-use monitoring dashboard, pellet CQAs are monitored in real-time.

FAST IMAGE PROCESSING
The images are continuously analyzed with SWIFT-EYE processing unit, employing our own specialized high-speed algorithms for reliable and accurate real-time pellet measurements. Each measured pellet is analysed in terms of pellet size and various shape parameters.
SWIFT-EYE ADVANCED ANALYSES
INTER-PELLET COATING UNIFORMITY
With advanced analysis of pellet size distributions and their change throughout the coating process, inter-pellet coating uniformity can be monitored. Within this analysis, the dependency of coating thickness gain on pellet size is presented.
INTRA-PELLET COATING UNIFORMITY
Intra-pellet coating uniformity is becoming an important CQA, especially with pellet coating for modified release drugs or with protective coatings. Throughout the process, the coating thickness along the average pellet outline is analyzed and monitored.
SWIFT-EYE MONITORING
DASHBOARD
Our easy-to-use dashboard brings you real-time monitoring of all SWIFT-EYE analyses and CQAs with dynamical charts to easily show the progress of your production process.
REMOTE MONITORING
Industry 4.0 design enables remote monitoring of multiple SWIFT-EYE devices from a single computer or tablet. Also, multiple users can monitor the production processes at the same time, facilitating information exchange within your production plant.
CUSTOM PROCESS REPORTS
We offer custom automatic process reports and data exports into various formats to make it easy to handle your data, whether it’s for process development in R&D or for verification purposes.
BENEFIT TODAY, BE READY FOR TOMORROW
