Flat-forming blister packager for small production batches

Ideal for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical firms seeking efficient packaging, this machine enhances your blister pack production with precise forming and sealing capabilities, handling sensitive solid dosage forms seamlessly in short-run batches.

Forms and Seals Blister Packs Intermittently

ACG’s MINIBLIS PLUS is a versatile flat-forming, flat-sealing intermittent-motion blister packaging machine designed for packaging sensitive solid dosage products. This equipment excels in creating blister packs for tablets and capsules like aspirin, Vitamin D, and probiotic supplements. With support for both thermoforming and cold-form foil applications, it suits a wide range of pharmaceutical and nutraceutical demands, accommodating short production runs and R&D settings.

The MINIBLIS PLUS operates with a forming cycle of up to 25 cycles/min for thermoforming and 20 cycles/min for cold-forming, featuring forming depths of up to 12 mm and 9 mm respectively. Its compact design integrates seamlessly with production lines, featuring an interactive human-machine interface for ease of use and low power consumption, ensuring a reduced total cost of ownership.

Material options include PVC, PVC/PVdC, and cold-form aluminum foils, providing versatility in production. Its nitrogen-purging capability is ideal for handling moisture-sensitive products. The MINIBLIS PLUS complies with industry standards, ensuring it meets stringent pharmaceutical regulatory requirements, making it a robust solution for modern packaging needs.
