SADE SP Weight Sorters for Batch Recovery in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
Rejected batches are costly. SADE SP tablet and capsule weight sorters enable 100% weight sorting of failed batches, allowing manufacturers to recover over 90% of conforming product while maintaining GMP compliance.
The Cost of a Rejected Pharmaceutical Batch
With modern manufacturing equipment, rejected batches are far less common than they used to be. But even with the best machinery and processes, they cannot be avoided entirely. A reject batch represents a waste of valuable production time and ingredients, while disposal is an additional cost and may impact your environmental targets. If you do not have enough API or room in your schedule to run another batch, it may even prevent you from meeting delivery commitments.
100% Weight Sorting for GMP-Compliant Batch Recovery
SADE SP weight sorters automatically weigh every individual tablet or capsule, separating nonconforming units from compliant product.
In batches rejected for weight variation or breakage, manufacturers typically recover over 90% of the product. Recovered doses can be returned to the production process under controlled conditions.
Batch recovery can operate 24/7 without operator intervention.
Immediate Return on Investment
While root cause elimination remains the priority, weight sorting provides an immediate commercial safeguard when exceptions occur.
For many manufacturers, a single recovered batch has offset the cost of the equipment.
This is why SADE SP weight sorters are widely adopted across pharmaceutical manufacturing operations worldwide.
