The proven Noack DPN 760 blister packaging machine has undergone continuous further development in Romaco’s R&D department. The newest generation of this best-selling equipment can optionally be supplied with a special high-tech feed unit that assures safe handling of products which are otherwise difficult to feed.
Bosspak VTC 100 tablet and capsule counter The Bosspak VTC 100 electronic tablet and capsule counter represents Romaco’s newest technology for filling pharmaceutical solids or food supplements into bottles at high speed. The machine works completely independently of particular formats, allowing the product and packaging to be changed extremely fast. The tablets, caplets or gelatine capsules are fed to the counting stations by means of vibratory feed trays. The vibration intensity can be precisely adjusted on the ergonomic HMI panel. The products thus pass the twelve counting stations, where they are scanned by infrared sensors at a rate of 34,000 per second with incredibly accurate results. The new sensor generation features built-in microprocessors, which adjust the count trigger point automatically during production. Dust, humidity and heat, which are otherwise liable to disrupt the process, are compensated in this way. Time-consuming calibration of the counting stations is now a thing of the past.
The intelligent counting systems of the Bosspak VTC 100 control the product filling process into plastic or glass bottles. The complete count is collected in a so-called trap box and the bulk then discharged into the waiting bottles through funnels. The Bosspak VTC 100’s unique pre-dosing system improves both the counting accuracy and the filling speed. While one bulk is being filled into bottles, the next products in line are collected on special ledges without interrupting the counting process. The machine counts a maximum of 100 bottles a minute and can be installed either as a standalone unit or integrated in a line.
The Romaco technologies will be on show at the FachPack exhibition in Nuremberg (Germany) from September 24 to 26, 2013 (Hall 4A, Stand 4A-525).
