INTEGRA200, the new integrated robotic blister packaging line by Marchesini Group, integrates both thermoforming and cartoning operations in one single unit.
INTEGRA200 is characterized by its reliability, compact design, flexibility and ergonomy.
The packaging line consists of two sections, each managed by its own independent PC and offering very compact features.
INTEGRA200 is designed with balcony design in full compliance with GMP standards around three basic concepts: versatility, ergonomics and efficiency, all in a reduced footprint.
The packaging line is very easy to clean as all the stations are easily accessible and all the units are fully visible.
Blister extraction system is very effective because it exploits suckers with cycloid movement and positive motion placement.
The mechanical drive of the various stations – forming, sealing, perforation and coding unit, and cutting -  is completely managed by servo motors; this solution enables the line to be highly productive, ensures easy size changeover and reduces the noise.
The packaging machine integrates a robot, which picks-up each single blister positively and places it directly in the buckets of the cartoning machine, without any intermediate step in-between.
The brand new cartoning section that packages the blister into the cartons allows the operator to perform in one single access not only the operations of loading the cartons and leaflets, but also recovering goods or intact blisters.
The cartons are conveyed by special toothed belts, whereas they are picked-up and opened by oscillating arms.
Size changeover is simple and time saving thanks to the possibility to select the product parameters on the PC.
The packaging line guarantees a mechanical speed of 150 cartons per minute.
