UNIVERS 5000 Thermoformer

Automatic thermoformer for continuous manufacture of blister packages, aimed at industrial products, accessories, spares, household, etc. mainly oriented to free service sales.

The Univers model unifies in an automatic single line the different operations made in a conventional blister packing process:

• Package format.
• Product feeding.
• Cover sealing.
• Package die cutting.

Once the package film is heated (rigid films up to 500 micron thick), the machine can use different forming systems depending on the needs of each product: positive forming, negative forming or mechanically-assisted forming.

A large loading area eases product feeding in some housings created by the machine in a continuous process.

The package cover is placed in the sealing station. This cover can be made from board or plastic film, resulting in board-plastic or plastic-plastic packages, depending on the customer requirements.

Packages are cut into units in the cutting station. They emerge from the station on an output belt.

The control system with programmable automaton includes a simple communication system with a touch screen which gives information regarding the state of the machine and control parameters.

The UNIVERS thermoformer has been specifically designed for high performance and frequent format changes. It includes easy exchange systems with no need for tools, to enable the machine to be adapted to different formats in just a few minutes.
