advantages of laser Applications in Pharma Applications
Non-Contact Process
Laser systems operate without direct contact with the product, reducing the risk of contamination and physical damage. This non-contact nature is particularly beneficial for maintaining the sterility and integrity of pharmaceutical products, ensuring they meet rigorous health and safety standards.
Precision and Accuracy
Lasers provide exceptional precision and accuracy, which are crucial in pharmaceutical manufacturing. They can produce intricate cuts and detailed markings on small, delicate products like tablets and capsules without damaging the product. This precision is essential for maintaining dosage integrity and ensuring consistent medication quality.
Traceability and Compliance
Lasers can engrave detailed, durable, and tamper-proof markings on pharmaceutical products and packaging. These markings, including serial numbers, expiration dates, and batch codes, enhance traceability and aid compliance with regulatory requirements like those outlined in the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) for tracking and tracing prescription medications.
Versatility
Laser technology is adaptable to various materials and surfaces, including hard tablets, capsules, soft gels, and various types of packaging materials. This versatility allows pharmaceutical companies to use a single laser system across different stages of production and for different products, reducing equipment costs and streamlining operations.

Tablet Laser Drilling
Tablet laser drilling is a sophisticated process technology used in the pharmaceutical industry to create controlled-release medication. This method involves using precise laser beams to drill one or more small holes in pharmaceutical tablets. These holes regulate the release of the drug’s active ingredients over time, which is crucial for medications that require consistent, gradual dosages to be effective.
The Tablet Drilling Laser System leverages advanced laser technology to provide precision-controlled drilling of pharmaceutical tablets. This system is designed to create micro-holes in the tablet coating, enabling modified or controlled release of active pharmaceutical ingredients. The technology uses high-precision lasers, typically COā lasers, that can be finely tuned to adjust the diameter and depth of the holes based on specific drug release profiles.
