2 During the 1980 s, in order to satisfy an enquiry from an important North American company in the medical field, Gandus Saldatrici designed and began to manufacture their first sealer for medical pouches. Over the following years Gandus Saldatrici has become one of the European leaders in the market. With its varied range of ten models Gandus Saldatrici can now satisfy any packaging needs of medical disposables in either pre-made pouches or reels. Every year Gandus Saldatrici invests 50% of its R & D budget in developing their medical sealers. Thanks to this, during the last five years Gandus Saldatrici has been able to launch a new model into the market every ten months. After developing the sealing and coding technologies, the company is now focussed on the technical solutions required to ensure seal repeatability and function parameter recording to fully comply with ISO standards. In order to satisfy the increasing demand for total control and traceability of the sealers functions, in conjunction with its top of the range models, Gandus Saldatrici can now also supply two software versions, to record, store and manage the three sealing parameters; temperature, time and pressure.

3 All the models are designed and manufactured to ISO 9001:2000 quality standards. The company s experience has matured during the years and considered unique and the level of service offered we believe gives a strong competitive advantage. Furthermore Gandus Saldatrici proudly assures short delivery times, always available spares and innovative solutions.

4 minirò H-net In order to improve traceability of the packaging products in the medical market, Gandus Saldatrici designed the minirò H-net which has the highest specifications in the Gandus range of sealers for medical disposables and fully meets the ISO11607 standard. It is equipped with an electronic printer which is connectable with external units. Due to constant technical improvements the minirò H-net assures the repeatability of seal results constantly monitoring all the important function parameters (temperature, speed and pressure) Technical features minirò H-net has been designed for large volumes both in the hospital and medical industry. It will seal at 10 mts/min The LC Display has 4 lines with 24 characters in each one. One of the main features of the very reliable machine is the alphanumeric membrane keyboard. Seal Multi-line sealing 15mm width, with temperature adjustment with + or 1% tolerance, to fully satisfy ISO standards. Interfaces Three Com Ports placed in the rear side of the machine allow connection of the sealer to external units: label printer, personal computer, palmtop, or optical scanner.

5 Functions The highly developed minirò H-net allows settings of more than 30 functions, from the password to the management of the data storage, date formats, printer settings, counters, language choice and the maintenance menu. Programming All program functions can be easily set from the built in membrane keyboard. To make it easy and avoid any possible mistakes Gandus Saldatrici has introduced the Bar Code Designer. This software when installed on a PC creates in an easy and quick way, a sequence of printing steps in bar code format, which represent all the settable functions. The operator can set the sealer reading the pre-set data through an optical scanner linked to the machine, quickly and very simply avoiding any mistakes. Data storage Remote Management Software allows the machines functioning data to be stored, in order to assure traceability of the sealing parameters according to the pouch and/or the working time. This software allows this machine and the minirò H- net VP to be connected to a palmtop and PC allowing all the sealing parameters to be downloaded. These records can then be stored on the PC and managed in Excel. Sealing parameters control minirò H-net VP version monitors the correct function of all the parameters in real time, constantly monitoring that the temperature, pressure and speed are within the set tolerances. Should any be out of tolerance the machine will immediately stop. A printout showing temperature, pressure and speed values can be produced to confirm the correct setting of sealing parameters. Printing The built-in dot matrix printer will print dates, batches, codes and any other information directly on the pouch during the sealing phase. It can also be connected to an external thermal printer to print bar codes or other data on adhesive labels. Alarms and safety minirò H-net is equipped with different alarms to help monitor correct functioning control. An audible alarm sounds and the machine will stop to indicate incorrect sealing parameters, ink cartridge empty, exhausted battery or scheduled maintenance is due. Maintenance and Service All sealers are supplied with a Test and Conformity Certificate. Gandus Saldatrici offers a periodic sealer recalibration and maintenance service, scheduled by the machine itself. minirò H-net VP pressure control

6 Medical H 460 / H 610 The well known Medical series, which was Gandus Saldatrici s first sealer developed for the medical sealer field, has been updated with the latest Medical H 460 and Medical H 610 models. These impulse sealers combine user friendly and reliability in a design that has evolved over the years. Technical features Medical H 460 / 610 are built in stainless steel with epoxy powder painted steel base chassis. The new control panel placed sideways allows a comfortable easily cleanable working table behind the sealing jaws. Functions The machine has independent adjustment of the sealing and cooling times. Medical H 460 / 610 can be used for pouches in any sealable material: Paper/polypropylene, Tyvek, or polyethylene. Roll holder and Cutting device Medical H 460 / 610 in GT version are supplied equipped with a built-in roll holder and cutting device. Special attention was given to the design of the cutting device, which allows a quick and reliable cutting of reels up to 500mm wide. Medical H 460 with roll holder and cutting device Seal Impulse seal is 8mm wide which conforms to ISO standards. On these latest models the sealing jaws have been increased in length to allow sealing pouches up to 460mm or 610mm wide.

7 Medical H 460 / H 610 Digital AccuTemp The latest design in the popular Medical series is the Digital Accutemp version. This new model reaches the highest performance and control levels for an impulse sealer. These sealers steadily control the three sealing parameters, temperature, pressure and time during the seal cycle in order to guarantee the repeatability of the seal quality. Detail of the command panel Control of the sealing parameters Digital Accutemp system is a very accurate and sophisticated control system. During every sealing cycle the system monitors up to 60 times per second the three sealing parameters: temperature, pressure and time. In the event of any change from the values set by the operator and manufacturer, the machine will activate an alarm and immediately stop. Remote Management Software Functions Many functions are available on these versions: sealing times, temperature which automatically controls the cool cycle, sealing wire auto-calibration, counter setting and the multi-language menu. Interfaces Medical H 460 / 610 Digital Accutemp can be connected to a personal computer and/or to a datalogger printer. Data recording Remote Management Software for Digital Accutemp allows setting of the sealer through a computer, connected by a Com Port. The same software allows the recording of the machine functioning data, in order to guarantee the traceability of the sealing parameters according to the pouch and.or the working time of the sealer. Thanks to this connection you can download the functioning data of the sealing parameters (time, pressure and temperature). These records can then be stored on a PC and managed in Excel. The software can also create charts, which can be stored or printed to be kept as documents of process validation. Maintenance and Service All machines are supplied with a Test and Conformity Certificate. Gandus Saldatrici offers a periodical recalibration and maintenance service. Datalogger Datalogger is an external printer, which can be connected to the Medical Digital Accutemp. The printer records the trend of the sealing parameters and prints them on data sheet, which can be stored.
