TORBAL

A typical Rx Counter

Cross-Contamination and Cleaning

When counting on a TORBAL, pills are poured directly into the vial. This eliminates cross contamination and the need for time consuming cleaning.

When counting with a mechanical Rx Counting machine, pills come in contact with internal parts of the unit. This can cause serious cross contamination and may require users to clean the machine several times a day, or more often when counting dusty tablets. Cleaning is a tedious process that requires disassembly and can last 4 minutes or longer.

Pricing

TORBAL Pill Counters are very affordable. Request a quote, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

The starting price of some Rx Counting pour-through machines is $5,000.00, for this much you can purchase two TORBAL DRX-500sx pill counters, as well as the TORBAL Server with preinstalled software.

Features

The TORBAL DRX-5SX Pill Counting System offers over 30 features and functions. Rx Verification, E-mail Reporting, Transaction and user monitoring, Drug Information and many more. See all...

The same basic models that start at 5k, do not offer much in features. All you get is a small vacuum fluorescent display. No Rx Verification, no drug info, no transaction logs or reporting...

Speed

TORBAL counters count pills essentially as fast as you can pour them. The total time to complete a prescription of 100 tablets is less than 20 seconds. This includes Scanning the NDC code, Performing Rx Verification and logging the transaction.

The speed of mechanical pill counters is often compromised by cross contamination. Dusty uncoated generic tablets leave residue on optical sensors and detector windows. This forces a user to stop counting and perform maintenance. The total time required to set-up cleaning supplies, disassemble the unit, and performs cleaning, significantly increases the average time per prescription count.

Accuracy

TORBAL pill counting scales are manufactured with highest quality electromagnetic load-cells which offer outstanding pill counting accuracy. All scales are NTEP Certified for prescription weighing and pill counting. To maintain pill counting accuracy it is recommended to periodically update the average pill weight information. On the DRX-500sx models updating is performed automatically while filling a prescription.

Just like speed, the accuracy of mechanical pill counters is compromised by cross contamination. Sensors and detector windows can easily get obstructed by pill residue and dust. This may cause miscounts and errors.
