The KN260 thermoforming machine offers maximum versatility in forming for packaging syringes, vials, ampoules and medical devices.
Designed in the early 1980s, it marked an evolution in the field of thermoforming machines thanks to its innovative heating systems. Over the years, this model has taken the place of the R70 series launched in the early 1960s, famous for revolutionising the packaging of vials and ampoules. Models of the R70 are still in operation today.
The KN260, restyled several times over the years, has won success as a reliable, versatile machine and reference for our most important customers. Easy to maintain and with versatile production configurations, it can handle a wide range of formats and offer reliable solutions for all packaging needs.
Compact and built with an aluminium frame, this machine can be easily installed in confined spaces. It is equipped with cutting-edge robotic loaders, Farmo Vision cameras and systems compatible with any type of cartoning machine.
Main characteristics:
✔ Simple and intuitive maintenance
✔ Rapid and guided format changeover
✔ Compact and functional frame
✔ High versatility in forming complex shapes and a wide range of plastic materials
✔ Robotic Integration: FARMO RES integrates delta robotic solutions for product handling. Each robot is controlled by a set of servomotors for perfectly smooth movements and a reduced energy consumption.
✔ Product Check Integration: Farmo Vision is an integrated system of cameras that guarantees total quality control directly by the machine’s HMI, with monitoring of the presence and accuracy of the products. With a sole interface, the Farmo Vision system can manage several cameras on the machine or the whole production line, and provides advanced connectivity solutions for interaction with the company network and other devices.
Packaging precision and quality: the machine has positioning sensors that at each cycle guarantee the correct alignment of the sealing and cutting stations with the profile of the packages. The lateral forming clamps allow the forming film to be kept perfectly tensioned (also when machine is stopped) to optimise the heating of the film and produce correctly formed packages even with frequent stops and restarts (waste reduction).
