The customer reached out to Omron for a solution that would help with speed and consistency in labeling across its many facilities. Label accuracy is imperative in the medical device industry, as any incorrect information can lead to fines, recalls and a reduction in consumer confidence. In order to comply with FDA UDI standards, all medical device manufacturers are required to format their labels in a specific way so that end users can easily identify package contents. This includes a unique device identifier (UDI) that must be issued through an FDA-accredited agency.

Business need

Unique solution

The customer replaced time consuming manual inspections with the LVS-7510 Series printer integrated label inspection solution from Omron.

Customer benefits

The customer was able to get the system up and running very quickly, allowing two operators who had previously been working on label inspection to focus on other tasks.
