STANDARD FUNCTIONALITY

  • The cavities are formed by two strips of plastic and can have different shapes.
  • The lower trimming is obtained with a shaped cutting die which also helps the opening of the strip.
  • The product is dosed with precise volumes in the dosing station, and these volumes can be changed automatically.
  • Strips of 28-30 suppositories pass through the cooling tunnel, which has controlled cooling ventilation to solidify the product.
  • The strips are sealed on top so that the cavities are airtight.
  • Coding can be done on the last group of the sealing unit.
  • The upper edge of the strips are cut with circular blades.
  • The strips are pre-cut and the final cut generates strips with the required number of suppositories or doses.

  • Automatic product weight check
  • Product recycling pump.
  •  Splice control device and
    micro hole check (only for PVC): stop mode in dosing pump phase and automatic ejection of empty and non-conformed strips at the end of tunnel.
  • Removable hopper.
  • Antistatic device for PVC
