Blister Packing Machine (Alu-Alu )
Automatic Blister Packing Machine design of the machine is ergonomic and used for both the Cold Forming (ALU/ALU) and Thermo Forming (PVC/ALU) blister packs. This machine is suitable for Large production batches in the pharmaceutical industry. The main movements are mechanical and pneumatic, and all the control systems used in the equipment are the best in the electronic market.
CONSTRUCTION OF THE MACHINE
The core structure of the machine, constructed from mild steel, features SS 304 frames that are welded and secured to a sturdy framework. This framework supports various modular stations arranged in a balcony-like design. Inside the machine, all the necessary drive components and extensive wiring are positioned. The operation of the machine’s stations is managed by a central spline shaft, powered by the main motor. The machine is equipped with two servo motors for the control of the Indexing and Feeding systems. The Feeding process is performed by a Product Transfer Roller (PTR) for precise handling of Alu/Alu Blister. The entire setup is placed on six adjustable studs, allowing for easy cleaning of the area beneath the machine. Safety measures are in place to protect the operator. Access to the adjustments of the cantilevered modular stations is from the front of the machine. The process of mounting and dismounting the format parts is straightforward, requiring minimal tools and effort. It is possible to complete a full set of changeovers in less than 30 minutes, minimizing operator fatigue.
Main Features:
- Packing Speed: 30 Cycle/min for Thermo-Forming, 30 Cycle/min for Cold-Forming
- Feeding System: Auto feeding system by PLC Logic with pneumatic Combination. (For critical products)
- Servo Drive Indexing: Servo web indexing by rigid PLC Logic.
- Operator Interface: User-friendly MMI touch screen (Man-machine interface)
- Pneumatic Operations: Festo makes for fast response, oil-free, minimum wear and tear, easy maintenance, and universal Availability of bought-outs.

Field Identification
This system is used for small consumer goods, foods, and pharmaceuticalstThe primary component of a blister pack is a cavity or pocket made from a formable web, usually a thermoformed plastic. This usually has a backing of paperboard or a lidding seal of aluminum foil or plastic. Blister packs are useful for protecting products against external factors, such as humidity and contamination for extended periods. Opaque blisters also protect light-sensitive products against UV rays.
Allocated floor space for the equipment is with a clear ceiling height of 3 Mts. Approx.
To be installed in 4.5×4.5 Mts. Area.
