A presentation about strip packing machine. Learn about its basics and applications-
Strip packing machines are extensively used in the pharmaceutical industry for packaging tablets, capsules, and other medical products. These machines wrap a strip of packaging material around the product to create individual pockets that can be easily detached for use. They are highly productive and can process large volumes of products. Additionally, strip-packing machines can be tailored to accommodate different sizes and shapes of packaging materials. All in all, strip-packing machines are critical in ensuring safe and efficient packaging of medication in the pharmaceutical industry.

EVOLUTION
HISTORY
Strip packing machines have evolved
from manual to fully automated. The first
automated machine was invented in the
early 1940s, and semi-automatic
machines were introduced in the 1950s.
The introduction of computer controls in
the 1970s improved accuracy and
reliability, while fully automatic machines
with robotic arms were introduced in the
early 2000s. Today, strip packing
machines are even more versatile and
adaptive with the incorporation of
artificial intelligence.

STRIP DESIGN
Strip packaging is typically basic, with rectangular or square strips.
Pocket shape can vary, but it's critical to the product's dimensions. A
pocket that's too small can cause tearing or wrinkles in the seal area.
Seals are usually 5mm or wider to prevent wrinkling or creasing, but
wider seals may be needed if the seal area is problematic.
Description
6. STRIP PACKING
MACHINE
Strip packaging can be done by introducing an item which extends a pocket area during insertion or by a pre-forming
operation prior to filling. Strip packaging machines consist of a feed system, product insertion plus heat sealing, and a
guillotining operation to size. The pocket area is created by recesses either in a platen or more usually in a heat sealing
cylinder, where a circumferential point seal is made between two intermeshing cylinders. Additional stages which can be
incorporated into the machine include printing, perforating, batch coding, etc.
