Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2716552A1] The device has a transport device for conveying the plastic sheet (4) in a transport direction and a feed unit (8) for feeding the tablets into the pockets in the plastic sheet. An inspection device (14) arranged downstream from the feed unit, checks whether each individual pocket in the plastic sheet is filled or not. A control device (16) actuates the lighting or beam-emitting device (18) based on the result of inspection device, so as to visually identify a blocked filling channel (12) of feed unit. An independent claim is included for method for monitored loading of tablets into pockets in web of plastic sheet for production of blister packs.
