The SADE SP-120 tablet/capsule weight sorter sorts batches of tablets, capsules and similar types of solid dosage oral forms by weight into “accept” and “reject” categories. In typical applications it is used by development departments for sorting clinical trial batches by weight and in production for product reclamation. With the bulk hopper it is especially suited for 24 hour unattended operation.

Like the new SADE SP Benchtop B20 and SP-220 sorters, the SP-120 sorter is equipped with the new pre-weighing feed gate and improved weighing algorithims for 50% faster sorting speeds over the previous SP-100 model. The new SP-120 now boasts a throughput of up to 80 PPM or greater depending on product and operating conditions) with an accuracy of ± 1.0 mg.

The SADE SP series sorters are fitted with the new CI Electronics MK6 weigh head (or load cell) for improved weighing performance and accuracy. All SADE SP sorters now include an integral draft shield to protect the product and reduces the disturbances caused by air currents. The feed mechanism has also been redesigned for more accuracy and consistency.

The New High Speed Weighing System Pre-Weighing Gate:

The The new pre-weighing gate used in the SP-120 sorter is the latest innovation from CI Electronics. The pre-weighing gate loads the tablet or capsule onto the scale more precisely than if the gate were not present. The pre-weighing gate, combined with new sorting algorithms, enables the new SADE sorters to achieve weight sorting speeds more than 50% greater than with previous models.

Sorts Capsules & Tablets:

The unit can be quickly changed over between products without the need for change parts, and is ready to handle virtually any pharmaceutical solid dosage. All contact parts are made of electropolished type 316 stainless steel or FDA approved PEEK plastic.

Control Software:

The SP series has sophisticated control software that has both the sorting and check weighing modes and will present the appropriate statistical data for each mode in the batch reports. In check weighing mode, units can check weigh samples of up to 1,000 tablets and capsules to provide statistical analysis of the weight data. With USB and Ethernet connectivity, the SP series sorters can be connected to local or network printers. In remote mode the SADE SP sorters can be linked to a central batch record or control system using an XML interface.

SP Connect Software Suite:

SP Connect is suite of software applications that allow data to be transferred between CI SADE SP Series sorters and standalone or network PC's, using the instruments built in Ethernet connection. Data are exchanged securely in XML format via TCP/IP protocols and Windows Sockets. With USB and Ethernet connectivity, the SP series sorters can be connected to local or network printers as well.
