Introduction
Quality control in packaging can make or break product integrity, especially for sensitive products like pharmaceutical syrups. Even minor flaws—such as dents, missing seals, or improperly threaded caps—can lead to leakage, contamination, and ultimately a loss of consumer trust. For pharma companies, these defects pose not only a threat to product safety but also to regulatory compliance and brand reputation.
Common Syrup Cap Defects in Pharma and Their Impact on Product Quality and Compliance
Here’s an overview of common defects on syrup caps and their potential outcomes:

How DeepInspect® AI- Powered Syrup Cap Inspection works?
After filling, each bottle is transferred to the capping machine on a conveyor belt, aligned in a single file to position each bottle precisely under the capping head. As a bottle arrives at the capping head, a cap is placed on its mouth, and a spindle or chuck capper twists and fastens it securely.
The capped bottle then moves to the SwitchOn DeepInspect® station, where two side cameras and one top camera provide a 360-degree inspection to detect defects such as cuts, missing seals, and dents—with 99.5% accuracy. Strategically positioned lighting enhances visibility, ensuring each camera captures clear, detailed images for a thorough inspection, so only bottles with flawless caps continue forward.
