TORBAL ® Rx brings you pillcounting.com - experience our tablet counters, learn about our technology, understand the features...
To assure highest pill counting accuracy the TORBAL server automatically reminds users to perform an update of a drug's average piece weight (APW). Updating a drug is a fast and easy process which is part of a regular pill counting transaction. The update feature incorporates TORBAL's advanced pill counting accuracy (APA) algorithm which eliminates manual counting of a sample. To update the user is asked to briefly pause the count at a range of 10 to 15 pieces and then again anywhere at the range of 20 to 30 pieces. This process adds only approximately 4 seconds to the counting transaction and automatically recalculates and updates the drug on the server assuring an accurate count. Most commonly drugs should be updated from every 60 to 90 days. The update frequency is set by the user and it usually correlates to the daily prescription filling volume.

A perhaps unnoticed side consequence of the increasing volume of pills being counted will be cross-contamination. |
