In February 2015 Almac Pharma Services in Craigavon Northern Ireland took delivery of a SADE SP440 tablet and capsule weight sorter from CI Precision.
Almac provides the most comprehensive range of services extending from research through pharmaceutical and clinical development to commercialisation of product. More than 600 companies worldwide, including all the market leaders, use Almac’s services, testament itself to the quality, innovation and efficiency of its business as proven over the past 30 years.
Stephen Gallagher, Process Development Manager at Almac Pharma Services, states that Almac’s new SP440 will be used in R&D applications for weight sorting both tablets and capsules, where batch sizes can vary from 1,000 – 250,000.
On being asked whether he would recommend SADE SP440 weight sorters, Stephen Gallagher replies: 'Yes – because they are reliable and suitable for our applications'. He adds, 'SADE equipment is used by our Clinical Services Division. They recommended CI Precision. We now have SP100/140/440 sorters in Pharma Services.'
Regarding support from CI Precision, from sales enquiry to installation, training and after sales support, he comments that it is 'excellent from start to finish'.
To complement the SADE SP440 unit, Almac Pharma Services also purchased from CI Precision the Validation Support Documentation, Full Spares Pack and SP Connect Software licence.
