Inline digital printing system for pharmaceutical packaging

Enhance packaging precision and compliance with cutting-edge inline digital printing, ensuring high fidelity in colors and reducing validation risks for continuous pharmaceutical production.

Prints and Inspects Continuous Web Packaging Materials

The Web 4.0 5D from HAPA offers a cutting-edge solution for pharmaceutical and healthcare packaging needs, combining inline digital printing with meticulous inspection capabilities. This system excels in multi-color printing on diverse substrates like blister packs, strip packs, Tyvek pouches, and aluminum lidding foils. It operates on a continuous web, providing precise control through a pdf-based workflow, which minimizes artwork errors and integration challenges. With a max printing speed of 54 meters per minute and resolutions up to 600 dpi, it ensures high-quality outputs. Its GMP-compliant design features Hapa’s OptiMate HMI for simplified operations and Hiflow technology for reduced ink waste and environmental impact. Fully equipped for Industry 4.0, the Web 4.0 5D supports serialization and registered printing, with additional options like mechanical integration with packaging machines and corona pre-treatment for enhanced print adhesion. It adheres to stringent standards, accompanied by comprehensive validation documentation, ensuring smooth implementation in pharmaceutical environments.
