Spot lights are on Marchesini’s stand, during “Achema 2009”, for the worldwide preview of Unica, the latest creation of Marchesini, which has the same philosophy as the robotic monobloc unit “Integra”. Unica is able to integrate the deep forming and carton packaging processes in one monobloc unit: the solution features totally robotic feeding units.

Just like Integra (the monobloc blister line), Unica is split-up into two sections – the thermoformer and the cartoner – each of which are managed by their own stand-alone PC.

Manufactured entirely with balcony structure in total compliance with GMP standards, the line is designed around three basic concepts: versatility, ergonomics and maximum efficiency in a very compact space. Ease of access, ergonomic stations and maximum visibility of all the units make the line very easy to clean, without forgetting the vertical wall that clearly separates the mechanical area from the work area.

Outstanding novelties are represented by the feeding units which, compared to Integra, feature two Robovision machines, being robots with four axes developed entirely by Marchesini Group to pick-up products, - syringes or other products – from a belt and to feed them to the thermoformer and also to the cartoner.

Maximum layout flexibility, a large work area and precision are the main features of this brand new product: a revolutionary system that offers extreme flexibility and considerable reduction in cleaning and size changing times.

Characterised by cutting edge technical solutions and a balcony structure, the thermoformer is able to produce very deep containers, for both cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. The machine offers some very important features: a pitch of 160 mm for an absolutely ample forming area; a brushless motor that powers the main drive of the machine with main shaft and cams; special attention has been paid to size changing, which is performed without using tools, thanks to quick-release couplings and locking handles.

As for the packaging of the containers in cartons, the machine allows the operator to carry out management procedures, such as loading the cartons and the leaflets – in just one access area. The product and the cartons are conveyed by special toothed belts, while the cartons are picked-up and opened by oscillating arms.

The winning feature of the new monobloc lines of Marchesini Group “Integra and Unica” is indeed versatility, which is enabled by the ever increasing use of robotic solutions. Size changing is simple and rapid and guided entirely by the PC.

The line is able to process up to 150 cartons/minute.
