Abstract (en)

[origin: CA2983375A1] The present invention relates to an apparatus for packaging individual medication doses in blister bags. In known apparatuses, the number of defective blister bags is still too high. The apparatus according to the invention comprises a plurality of storage and dispensing stations (2), at least one guide and collection arrangement (7, 17) for picking up the medication doses and passing them on to a packaging station (3), which forms a strand (50) of connected blister bags (51) from packaging material (34), a labeling and printing station (20) for applying data (52) to the packaging material (34), an optical detection device (40), which optically detects characteristics of the individual blister bags of the strand, an evaluation device (90), which compares the characteristics detected for an individual blister bag with reference characteristics, and a storage station (60), in which the strand (50) of the blister bags (51) is stored in an ordered manner, wherein the optical detection device (40) is disposed between the packaging station (3) and the storage station (60).
