This is a fully automatic, intermittent motion Blisterpacking machine
with a capacity up to 50 cycles per minute. The maximum output is 200
Blisters per minute depending on blister size.
The machine is of ‘balcony construction’ - all relevant stations
are individual modules, which are cantilevered off a large aluminium
plate that forms the front of the machine housing. The remainder of
the machine cabinet is constructed from fabricated steel and houses
the drive unit, gear trains, chain drives and the electrical control
equipment.
PVC, PVC/PVDC, PVC/Aclar film is drawn from a reel and is first heated
and softened and then deep-drawn in the blister forming station. The
blisters are formed in the mould with the aid of compressed air –
the web is then pulled forward, up and across the feeding area where
the blisters are filled with product.
The filled blisters now pass into the sealing station where they are
covered with aluminium top foil which is drawn from a reel mounted
above. The heated top sealing plate on this station incorporates
coding digits to allow a code to be embossed as the blisters are
sealed. Air- operated grippers then pull the web forward through a
short cooling plate before they are cut out from the web.
The web now passes into the guillotine cutting station, where the
blisters are cut out and discharged down a chute where they can be
collected in a suitable container.
All operator controls are located in a console on the right hand side,
including the thermostats and temperature gauges. Two interlocked,
large sliding Perspex I5153093 doors protect the operator from the
moving parts of the machine. At the rear of the machine cabinet there
are hinged doors for easy access for cleaning and maintenance
purposes.
