Maschinenplattform: Palettizer

Case Studies

Labeler One for Autoinjectors

The line needed to process different autoinjectors and multiple tray types while ensuring high process stability despite its design as a small-batch and laboratory solution. In addition, both rotary and non-rotary labels had to be applied, including booklet labels. For study batches, placebo and active-ingredient pens had to be indistinguishable after labeling. A product-specific serialization concept needed to be implemented with full flexibility. Format changes had to be fast, reproducible, and clearly guided.

Palletizer with Unloading System for Syringes

The palletizer was designed in a U-shaped layout and needed to handle both de-stacking and stacking of trays while unloading syringes from each tray. The required tray exchange time was below 1.4 seconds. The system also needed to operate with high autonomy: six tray stacks on both infeed and outfeed sides, each containing ten trays, corresponding to approximately thirteen minutes of buffer time.

Assembly Device for Bottle Nipples (Clinical Use)

The system needed to assemble a plastic membrane into a bottle nipple without applying stress to the material, followed by an activation step via defined pressure. A documented inspection cycle for opening and closing pressure had to be performed. All process steps required precise control and traceability, including verification of membrane positioning.

Device and Syringe Infeed System

The system had to process different device and syringe types as well as multiple tray formats. Tray dimensions ranged from very small (300 × 150 × 15 mm) to very large (605 × 405 × 80 mm), requiring a highly flexible transport and infeed concept. Stable alignment prior to unloading was essential to ensure reliable downstream handling.

Labeler 50 for Autoinjectors

The system needed to process different autoinjectors as well as various tray types on the same line. It required fast and reliable format changes, high process stability, and full traceability of all formats. At the same time, the configurations had to be clearly guided and monitored to consistently meet regulatory requirements.

Blister Infeed from Shoe Boxes

Blister trays were delivered in shoe boxes with 20 layers, distributed across two levels with significant positional tolerances. The handling system needed to compensate for these tolerances through sensing and ensure stable picking and transfer to the downstream sealing process.

Production Line for Assembly, Labeling, Inspection, and Packaging

The system needed to provide a fully flexible automation solution capable of assembling, labeling, inspecting, and packaging syringes, devices, and vials into different carton types. In addition, booklets had to be fed automatically and integrated into both toploader and sideloader cartons. The line required full format flexibility, the ability to combine multiple process steps, and clear traceability across all variants. Despite the wide range of tasks, the overall machine layout had to remain compact.

Calibrator Infeed System

Calibrators had to be fed in two parallel lanes from trays. Any gaps occurring during infeed needed to be automatically closed. Depending on the carton size, calibrators had to be fed either standing or lying. The system required an autonomy time of twelve minutes and stable performance across varying product orientations.
