IMA - Blister Packaging Line

IMA BLISTER PACKAGING LINE

Year of construction: 2008

Consisting of C80 blister packing machine and A81 cartoning machine. 

• Wide blister format size range
• Maximum flexibility in layout
• Fast and computer guided changeover
• Complete accessibility of the material work flow

Designed to produce blisters on two or three rows according to the size of the produced blister. 

• 5441 running hours
• Easy forming materials loading thanks to the ergonomic position of the reel holder
• Automatic blister recovery magazine

PRODUCTION

• Blister dimensions: width 30-90mm, length 60-150mm, depth/height 3-12mm
• Carton dimensions: width 35-93mm, length 70-155mm, depth/height 12-90mm
• Production output: up to 400 blisters/min and up to 250 cartons/min

SET UP

• Forming station measures: 20mm x 11mm x 7mm deep (capsule) 
• Pack size: 88mm x 52mm, 5 x 2 packs of 10 capsules per pack
• Carton size: 100mm x 55mm x 30mm horizontally opposed 
• Trifold leaflet folder leaflet size: 118mm x 160mm before folding

PVC/PP/PET/Polymer base film with thermal forming and ALU lidding foil, twin lane. Will also run ALU/ALU with the correct tooling/format parts.

• The machine's control architecture consists of two personal computers: one runs the check and control function for the machine's functions whereas the other one runs Operator Interface function and displays alarms and archives the production setup programming parameters
• The C80/A81 is equipped with a package quality control system that is based on a series of sensors that detect any process anomalies. The defective packages are expelled into specific rejection stations
• Absolute angular transducers detect the angular position of the main kinematisms. The control logic supplies the signals necessary for the correct carrying out of all the product's processing stages
• The temperatures of the heaters are controlled by heat control units fed back by thermocouple probes 
• The heat control units pilot the heating elements through static power relays
