Shaping the future of blister materials

/in /by

The company invites you to an exclusive autumn “Open House,” which will be held directly at our Partena headquarters. This is a unique opportunity to see the most innovative solutions in blister packaging with your own eyes.

What the event consists of:

  • Cutting-edge technology: Participants will see two machines in action, specifically set up to work with thermoformed blisters and CF blisters. This will allow them to discover the possibilities that the company has to offer.
  • Live testing: Participants will be able to watch practical demonstrations and test materials from leading manufacturers in the sector, who will be on hand to offer technical support and answer any questions.
  • Innovation and sustainability: Participants will discover how single-material and PVC-free solutions can improve the environmental impact of products without sacrificing performance and safety.
  • Between innovation and reality, our balance: The company explores the materials of tomorrow without losing touch with those of today. We will talk about moisture barriers, oxygen barriers, and quality of raw materials.

The perfect opportunity to meet our experts and manufacturers, ask questions, and find the packaging solutions that best suit your needs.

Automazione per l’evoluzione del blister packaging pharma

Nel cuore dell’eccellenza nel settore machinery per il medicale si trovano le due sedi di Partena S.p.A., azienda che fin dagli anni ’50 si è distinta per qualità e affidabilità nella fornitura di macchine speciali per il confezionamento farmaceutico.

Con hyperMILL, Partena ha abbandonato il tradizionale approccio “si è sempre fatto così”. L’integrazione delle funzionalità avanzate del pacchetto Automation ha permesso di eliminare numerose attività bordo macchina, passando a una programmazione CAM basata su feature e macro.

“Questo ha portato due vantaggi cruciali: qualità derivante dalla standardizzazione e riduzione drastica dei tempi di messa in macchina” racconta Paolo Querzoli.

Monomaterial blisters

/in /by
The traditional blisters give way to the monomaterial blisters.
We know very well how important it is to recycle packaging materials.
For this reason, we have started manufacturing monomaterial blisters on our machines.
An easily recyclable solution, and thus eco-friendly.

F1 In Schools

Partena supports the “F1 In Schools” project of ITIS Leonardo Da Vinci in Carpi (MO), which allows children aged 9 to 19 to develop STEM subjects by applying them in the creation of a miniature single-seater powered by compressed air cartridges.

Partena’s new feeding system advantages:

A wide range of pharmaceutical products

The feeder is able to process all pharmaceutical products in blister packs: round tablets, oblong tablets, capsules and oval coated pills. The reduced length of the channel where the products are stacked allows to treat even the tablets that may be trapped in traditional feeding systems.

Free choice on the blister layout

The product can be fed into the blister following all the possible angles of the cavity and the blister layout is not compulsory. The packaging material could be of any type of plastic or aluminum. The layout does not affect the feeding speed.

A higher feeding speed

All the products of a stroke are fed at the same time, this means an increase in speed compared to the traditional feeding systems.

Easy settings

All the elettronic settings can be programmed on the operator panel.

Easy and quick format change-over

All the settings of the feeding format are saved in the software and therefore the passage from one format to another is simplified as much as possible: once replaced the format parts, the feeder automatically sets itself in the preset positions and no skilled operators or training are necessary.

Easy cleaning

All the parts that are in contact with the product and need to be cleaned are completely separated from the mechanical system. The format parts are easily removable without any tools.

Interchangeable with the traditional feeders

The feeding motorization system is located inside the machine feeding area but can be easily and quickly moved backward to allow all Partena’s feeding systems to be fitted: this allows to use any existing machines’ previous format.

Retrofitting possibility

The new magazine can be mounted on existing nMX and MK33 machines after appropriate modifications.

THE NEW CUTTING UNIT

Benefits and features of the new cutting unit with positive logic reject installed on CAM blister machines:

Good blisters only

The new cutting unit born in Partena S.p.a. (CAM Group), leader in the construction and design of blister and thermoforming machines, deposits only compliant blisters on the outfeed belt. A careful study and design made it possible to guarantee high quality product, easy and quick format changeover, operational safety and new logic of the reject system.

Product quality

The precision and centering of the cut are guaranteed by an intelligent automatic system, equipped with sensors that read the position of the cavities. The quality and flatness of the blister are guaranteed even in the event of machine stop. In this way, the blisters that remain in the yielding rollers are not deformed.

Easy and speedy to change format

Partena has designed and developed the new cutting unit by limiting the format parts. Formats with the same cutting die, for example, share the same trailing group and for standard-sized blister packs the outfeed belt has an adjustable position which adapts without the need to build and replace format parts.

Simplicity and repeatability of the format change are guaranteed by settings on the operator panel settings and by graduated systems. The safety of the rejection is ensured by a special barrier sensor that does not need programming by the user.

Safety of correct operation

The electronics used allows the continuous control of absorption and torque increases, for example due to excessive wear. The reporting of these anomalies ensures that the mechanics of machine are preserved.

The movements of the cutting unit are also completely independent from the rotation of the machine shaft.

SLP automatically corrects its speed and allows phase stops before the machine stops, by limiting the number of blisters released on the belt at each stop.

The new logic of the reject system

The system, known as SHIFT REGISTER, has information about the product after the check and is managed by the PLC rather than by the vision system. This therefore allows an interface with a greater number of vision system suppliers.
