Blister packaging
A few days ago, we told you about a used Sejong MRC 30 tablet press and explained a little about how this machine works. Once the tablets have been made, they can be packed in blisters or in glass or plastic bottles. To pack the tablets in bottles you need a counting machine, to pack them in blisters you need a blister machine.
Blister packs are mostly used in the pharmaceutical industry, but can also be found in cosmetics, nutraceuticals, food, confectionery or other totally different industries, for packaging various objects.
It is necessary to remember the importance of blister integrity in the pharmaceutical sector. The blister machine used to package medicines in blister form has to guarantee a number of data: the integrity of the blister (there must not be no micro-holes and the blister must be intact), the correct number of tablets in the blister (usually checked by a camera system), the presence of the lot number on the blister for traceability and the presence of the expiration date.
While the blister machine plays a key role, the quality of the materials used has a major impact on the quality of the final blister. It is therefore important to use materials such as PVC, PVDC, Aluminium, Aclar, paper or other high-quality materials to allow the product to be opened quickly and easily by the end user.
