Real-Time Tracking Weighing Technology in the Pharmaceutical Industry

Quality Control and Testing for Pharmaceuticals and Health Supplements
pharma checkweighing

Pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals demand exceptional precision, hygiene, and traceability throughout production. With small dosages, high unit values, and strict regulations, even minor weight deviations or labeling errors can lead to compliance failures, recalls, or reputational risk.

From tablets and capsules to softgels, powders, and liquid supplements, the variety of packaging—blister packs, bottles, pouches, and vials—adds complexity to inspection and handling. Ensuring accurate fill weights, batch-level traceability, and contamination control is essential for maintaining quality, meeting GMP and international standards, and protecting consumer trust in highly regulated global markets.

Industry Challenges

checkweighing system pharma
  • Strict Regulatory Compliance

    GMP, FDA, and global standards demand error-free inspection, full traceability, and validated weight and labeling control.


  • ltra-Light Products, Ultra-High Precision

    Tablets, capsules, and powders require extremely precise weighing—often within milligram tolerances—to avoid dosage errors.

  • High-Speed, High-Volume Production

    Lines must maintain inspection accuracy at thousands of units per minute, without sacrificing throughput or performance.

  • Small Packaging, High Risk

    Compact blister packs and vials make visual or manual inspection unreliable, increasing the risk of undetected defects.

  • Packaging Diversity and Complexity

    Bottles, vials, pouches, and strips each demand unique inspection approaches, increasing complexity in automation and quality control.

Application Scenarios

Samegram’s checkweighing system pharma is designed for strict pharmaceutical standards across tablets & capsules, powders & granules, syrups & oral liquids, sachets & pouches, and ampoules & vials. Our pharmaceutical metal detector and pharmaceuticals metal detector units ensure precise contaminant removal. Paired with a pharmaceuticalcheckweigher or checkweigher pharmaceutical setup, each solution delivers high accuracy, hygiene, and traceability. Checkweigher pharma models are integrated with MES/ERP systems to maintain GMP compliance and minimize giveaway. Whether for solids, liquids, or pouches, Samegram safeguards your production with high-performance solutions trusted in the most demanding pharmaceutical and nutraceutical lines.
End-of-Line Packaging Automatic Weighing & Labeling

End-of-Line Packaging Automatic Weighing & Labeling

At the end of the packaging line, pharmaceuticals automatic checkweighers integrated with labeling machines ensure precise weight verification before storage or shipment. This solution guarantees accurate labeling, traceable production records, and reliable checkweighing solutions for pharma to prevent errors and minimize compliance risks.

Precise Quantity and Weight Control in Processing

Precise Quantity and Weight Control in Processing

In the processing of granules, powders, or small sachets, high-speed, high-precision pharmaceutical checkweighers safeguard production consistency. By instantly rejecting defective packs, they provide reliable checkweighers for drug manufacturing, preventing batch deviations and supporting strict regulatory compliance in pharma production.

Filling Accuracy and Efficiency for Small-Diameter Bottles

Filling Accuracy & Efficiency for Small-Diameter Bottles

In pharmaceutical production, pharma checkweighing machines are essential for ensuring both accuracy and efficiency in liquid filling. For small-diameter containers such as vials and plastic bottles that are prone to tipping, specialized pharmaceutical checkweighers provide stable conveying and precise weight control. This guarantees consistent filling quality while improving overall line productivity.

Integrated with Transparent Film Packaging Machines

Integrated with Transparent Film Packaging Machines

Pharma checkweighing equipment can be seamlessly integrated downstream of transparent film or shrink-wrapping machines. Each package is automatically verified for weight accuracy, and non-conforming items are removed, ensuring that only compliant products advance to the cartoning and distribution stage. This integration strengthens checkweighers for drug packaging performance.

Multi-Lane Space-Saving Pharma Checkweighers

Multi-Lane Space-Saving Pharma Checkweighers

During the processing of fish, shrimp, shellfish and other products, conduct weight detection and sorting of products to ensure uniform product specifications, improve product quality and market competitiveness.

Checkweigher with Metal Detector Combination System

Checkweigher with Metal Detector Combination System

During the packaging process, it is critical to verify both product weight and potential contamination. A combined medicine detector and checkweigher system provides dual protection by eliminating underweight/overweight packs and detecting metallic foreign bodies, delivering robust pharma checkweighing equipment for pharmaceutical quality assurance.
