Blister thermoforming for Pvc/alu
Effortlessly mold and seal blister packs for a range of solid products, optimizing packaging accuracy and efficiency in high-speed operations.

Forms and Seals Blister Packagings
The MB442 from the Marchesini Group is a high-speed blister thermoforming machine tailored for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. It forms and seals blisters with precision, accommodating a variety of materials like PVC/ALU and others. Specializing in packaging tablets and capsules, it ensures consistent quality and speed, operating at up to 720 blisters per minute. The machine combines intermittent and continuous motion for optimal product handling and sealing. Designed with a balcony structure for enhanced accessibility, it complies with cGMP norms, prioritizing ease of cleaning and maintenance. Mechanical movements operate in an oil bath to minimize wear and extend service life, while its modular design allows for easy size changeovers. Ideal for integrating into existing production lines, it supports varied product shapes, from aspirin tablets to vitamin softgels.
