SmartSkin Technologies, a leader in pharmaceutical manufacturing intelligence, has introduced SmartSkin Seal Assurance, a solution designed to give pharmaceutical manufacturers real-time visibility into seal tightness leading to Container Closure Integrity across vial and cartridge capping.

SmartSkin Seal Assurance provides per-head, real-time feedback on sealing performance by measuring and visualizing forces during capping. Each event generates a digital signature, creating auditable proof that every capper head is configured and operating within specification. This record helps confirm setup quality and consistency. Compatible with single and multi-head systems, it complements Residual Seal Force (RSF) testing by confirming that sealing conditions measured in RSF are established from the start, closing the loop on Container Closure Integrity assurance.

Seal Assurance supports applications from factory acceptance testing (FAT/SAT) and line qualification to routine setup verification and troubleshooting.

“SmartSkin’s Seal Assurance opens the possibilities to proactively build container closure integrity assurance into the aseptic process design, creating new possibilities to enhance equipment and process performance in measurable, controllable, and reliable ways,” said Dr. Mihaela Simianu, Scientific Advisor at SmartSkin Technologies.

According to the company, a recent implementation with one of the world’s largest pharma manufacturers demonstrated Seal Assurance’s ability to detect head-specific inconsistencies and identify optimal capping parameters, validating its role as a proactive control solution that enhances both quality and efficiency.
