1 C80R / C80-A81 BLISTER PACKAGING MACHINES

2 C80R / C80-A81 NEW DIMENSION OF FLEXIBILITY C80R AND C80-A81 ARE SIMPLY THE MOST SOLD IMA BLISTER PACKAGING MACHINES. C80 SERIES ARE DESIGNED FOR THE PRODUCTION OF MEDIUM SIZE BATCHES. SPEED AND FLEXIBILITY ARE THE KEY ELEMENTS OF THESE SERIES. FLEXIBILITY AT A GLANCE Flexibility in terms of huge range of blister, carton and leaflet dimension as well as the possibility to use any kind of packaging material. Moreover, flexibility in terms of integration with ancillary equipment such as blister coding systems (inkjet, laser and in line printer), carton coding systems (embossing, inkjet, laser) and quality controls.

6 C80R NEW DIMENSIONS OF FLEXIBILITY FORMING REEL 2 HEATING 3 HOLDER Standard and semi-automatic reel holder, which allows forming material splicing without production stop, are both available. Reel diameter up to 800 mm. With the semi-automatic reel holder, when the reel is near to the end, the automatic lifter starts the second reel holder without machine stop, allowing the operator to install the new reel. Four heating sections in order to heat the film gradually and uniformly can be set independently through the HMI. The heating area is completely accessible for maintenance and does not have any cables or tubes in view. When the machine stops, the plates open and there is no contact with the film in order to prevent film damage. FORMING Possibility to handle all types of forming materials - ALU, PP, PVC, PVC/PVDC, Triplex, PVC/Aclar, PET, COC just to mention few - by using different forming process i.e. air pressure, heated plugs combined with air pressure or plugs only in order to obtain a perfect formed film.

7 FEEDING 5 SEALING 6 Feeding area has been designed for very fast cleaning operations and to easily allow the installation of different feeding systems such as chute feeders, roller feeders, brush box feeders and customized feeders. IMA Safe s continuous roller sealing grants the best performance and sealing quality thanks to the constant check of temperature, pressure and speed. The sealing pressure check is made by a selfregulating load cell placed directly into the sealing roller mechanism, which is very precise. CODING AND PERFORATION Blister coding can be done by embossing unit, inkjet system, laser or in line printer. Any kind of perforation is possible, i.e. crossed, longitudinal and vertical. 4 IMA SAFE FEEDING SYSTEMS IMA Safe s feeding systems are designed according to GMP principles. With its clean-finish balcony construction and having all mechanical parts contained within the machine, the C80 guarantees easy and simple cleaning without the risk of cross-contamination. There are no mechanical moving parts under the feeding area and there are no external cables and connectors. Smooth surfaces with no hidden corners are part of all IMA feeding systems without the need to install extended groups. The feeding process takes place on a single level where the material is naturally guided without any obstacles and without the need of adjustments.

8 C80-A81 WINS THE RACE AGAINST TIME 1 1 CUTTING STATION, 2 BLISTER RECOVERY 3 BLISTER TRANSFER MAGAZINE AND REJECTION Positive blister transfer from the cutting station to the cartoner. This is the most reliable and efficient system because the correct position is controlled mechanically and kept by suction cups, regardless of any flaws (i.e. curved blister). Blisters are always guided and visible. The connection to the cartoner is granted by adjustable tooth belt and the alignment unit system. The rejection system allows the separate rejection of empty and partially filled blisters. When a blister is rejected, the blister recovery magazine releases good blisters directly into the transport chain, thus granting ZERO rejection into the cartoner due to missing blisters. No need for manual feeding. The reloading of the blister magazine can be done completely and automatically without machine stop. Blisters can be directly pulled out from here for IPC tests. BLISTER STACKING The blister stacking unit counts the blisters electronically and the blister introduction into the carton is positively guided and controlled.

9 1 2 4 CARTON WITHDRAWAL 5 AND OPENING The carton withdrawal and opening is based on a mechanical and positive opening system which allows handling any kind of cartons, including cartons with braille code and recycled paper cartons. LEAFLET FOLDING UNIT All kind of leaflets folders can be installed for flat, pre-folded and leaflets from reel. Leaflet transport from the folding unit to the introduction into the carton is completely visible and accessible

10 C80R / C80-A81 REAL USER-FRIENDLY EASY TO USE, INTUITIVE AND CUSTOMIZED: OUR QUALITY CONTROLS ASSURE A TOTAL VISIBILITY OF THE ENTIRE PRODUCTION FLOW. THE PERFECT INTEGRATION BETWEEN HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE OF QUALITY CONTROLS LOT SCAD. MAY 2017 LOT SCAD. MAY DESIGN AND SAFETY GUARDS Balcony structure, user friendly and easy to clean. Robust machine guards, for absolute accessibility and visibility, are available in polycarbonate or metacrilate. External surfaces have a clean linear design with appropriate coating to make cleaning easier and special coatings have been used to absorb the noise, which would otherwise be created by the moving of mechanical parts. The machine guards are designed for higher stability and to contain vibration and are the widest and the most accessible in this range, particularly important when loading various materials.

11 The C80 blister machine series offers the highest degree of flexibility, ease of operation, quick changeovers without the need for further adjustments. VERY QUICK AND EASY CHANGEOVER: ALL TOOLING, SIZE PARTS, GUIDES, ETC, ARE REMOVED BY SIMPLY PULLING OR SLIDING THEM INTO THE APPROPRIATE SLOT, NO TOOLS ARE REQUIRED. Changeover is facilitated by servo-controlled technology, which automatically modifies individual movements between various groups of the machine. This automation is especially useful when dealing with different packaging materials. The electrical wiring or connections are by Fieldbus technology, which drastically reduces the cabling space needed and thus increases access for maintenance. HMI The operator interface has been designed to fully meet operator requirements. A computer touch screen, with 16:9 colour monitor and graphical user interface, enables easy and intuitive management of the machine s production and status. The computerised system manages the filling control, bar code reader, OCV, and OCR which are completely integrated into the single HMI. Production data and statistics, troubleshooting, including changeover instructions, maintenance and manuals can also be obtained through the HMI screen. Also, reconciliation of production data to facilitate production batch closing, interactive spare parts catalogue for quick and easy viewing of the parts composing the machine (optional) as well as the possibility to order new parts are possible from the machine interface.
