Automatic Blister Packaging System (ABP) - 1

AUTOMATIC BLISTER PACKAGING 1004ABP Automatic Blister Packaging Machine Designed for high volume users, the ABP series of machines are some of the most advanced models in the Ridat range of blister packaging equipment. Its modular format facilitates the use of the conveyor sections as a standalone fully automated blister sealing system. Ridat’s ABP series will: i) Automatically feed the foil material from reel stock ii) Form and separate the blisters iii) Transfer the blisters to sealing jigs iv) Place backing cards (or foil) on the blister v) Heat seal the pack and vi) Transfer the completed pack from end of line High speed production The following processes ensure a consistent fast rate of production of up to 25 cycles per minute. Contact heating is used to give the rapid, precise heating of the plastic for high speed forming. Accurate temperature control of the heating platens is maintained by PLC with feedback from thermocouples. The machines use the unique Ridat twin heat sealing presses in tandem so that high speed, low pressure card sealing can be employed. Material waste minimised Side clamping of blister flange is used to avoid edge trim waste. The minimum flange on the material edges of outer blister is 10 mm. Synchronised operation The synchronisation of each stage is automatic. Timing sequences are set up in a PLC so that all machine functions can be precisely adjusted. The conveyor is driven from a single motor and with cycle on demand. High quality components are used throughout. Where necessary, air cylinder movements are supported by robust guide rods, and typically the conveyor jigs are carried on heavy duty chains.
