Vertical intermittent motion stick packaging
Packaging diverse products such as powders, dense, and semi-dense fluids requires equipment that guarantees high productivity and flexibility. In such cases, the need to switch configurations quickly while maintaining high efficiency and minimal downtime is essential.
Ensures versatile and efficient packaging
The STICK Series by IMA is specifically designed for packaging diverse product types into stick packs using vertical intermittent motion. The machine’s compact design ensures it fits efficiently into many production environments while maintaining high productivity. It features configurations for handling paste products, fluid products, powders, and non-free-flowing items. The option to install double dosing systems allows for alternative production runs, and a double auger system can dose different powders into one stick for versatility. The sealing system consists of a vertical and horizontal sealing unit, both of which are easily accessible for quick cleaning and maintenance. An optional checkweigher system is also available for 100% weight control. With versions like STICK 360 for small to medium-scale production and STICK 720 for high-production needs, the series supports a broad range of pharmaceutical applications.
