Perceptor IoT Label Inspection & Verification

Welcome to the Perceptor IoT Knowledge Base — your central resource for configuring, operating and troubleshooting real-time label inspection and verification across thermal transfer printing environments.

Perceptor IoT helps manufacturers maintain print quality, eliminate duplicate labels and identify non-compliant labels before they enter the production process. Designed for both compliant and non-compliant industries, Perceptor IoT brings label inspection, barcode verification, data integrity and printer connectivity together through one intuitive touchscreen application.

Whether you are setting up a new printer, integrating Perceptor IoT with an existing production line or managing an enterprise-wide deployment, this knowledge base provides the information you need to get the most from your system.

What is Perceptor IoT?

Perceptor IoT is a real-time label inspection and verification system for thermal transfer printers.

It automatically detects:

• Print blemishes and print quality defects
• Incorrect or non-compliant labels
• Duplicate labels
• Barcode and 1D/2D code quality issues
• Data and batch information discrepancies

Perceptor IoT can be retrofitted to compatible existing printers, helping manufacturers introduce automated label inspection without replacing their existing printing infrastructure.

Meeting compliance requirements

Perceptor IoT ENTEPRISE edition is a corporate level solution specifically for compliance and regulated industries such as BioTech, Life Sciences, Medical Device, Pharmaceutical and US Defence.  Integrating Perceptor IoT at the Enterprise level enhances compliance and ensures data integrity with accurate batch information and individual label data being available for product genealogy and traceability.

Perceptor IoT supports the label inspection requirements for the following regulations:

• 21CFR Part 11
• EU MDR/IVDR Regulation (EU) 2017/745
• Falsified Medicines Directive 2001/83/EC
• GS1-128 Data Structures
• GS1 1D/2D code specifications
• ISO/IEC 15418 / ANS MH10.8.2 data structure analysis
• UDI ‘Unique Device Identification’ for Medical Devices
• UID/UID ‘Item Unique Identification’ for MIL STD 130N
• (EU)2018/574 Tobacco Regulation 

Booklet label media

The Booklet Printing Media Sensor kit has been designed specifically with Pharmaceutical and Clinical Life Trial customers in mind - but any product which requires complex instructions, legal text and patient information applied in booklet label format benefits from the real-time inspection and verification Perceptor IoT delivers.

The kit can be easily retro-fitted to existing thermal transfer printers using a booklet printing system to provide a complete automated booklet label print process which detects non-compliant labels, print blemishes and duplicates in real-time without manual checks.
