Universal Pack designs packaging machines and cartoning lines for nutraceutical tablets in stick packs and sachets. Various dosing systems are available.
Universal Pack designs and builds stick pack and sachet packaging machines and cartoning lines for nutraceutical tablets. Understanding the needs of our customers is the the first step in creating and designing solutions that meet their requirement in terms of flexibility, reliability and efficiency.
We equip our stick pack and sachet machines for tablets with specific dosing systems:
- Rotating tilted-plate system, with automatic detection abnd rejection of broken tablets;
- Vibrating tablet bowl feeders, customized to exactly fit the tablet dimensions;
- Aligner/dispenser, with a dedicated channel to reject broken tablets.
Thanks to these dosing systems, our solutions can dose functional foods, dietary supplements and sports supplements in capsules, round and shaped tablets.
Nutraceutical Requirements
As fundamental parts of the safety measures in the pharmaceutical industry, we provide security systems to govern access and recorded data on the production line. They can manage different levels of access (e.g. operator, factory, administration) making the machinery compliant with CFR 21 part 11 regulation.
The experience we have acquired in our long-standing partnerships with major pharmaceutical corporations helped us develop the most suitable systems in terms of production management, product traceability and compliance with the latest regulations. This process of constant growth and enhancement reflects on our quality integrated automatic packaging lines and the wide range of accessories to increase quality control.
Our internal laboratory analyzes your product and laminate to design and build the best solution for your needs. After internal tests and a thorough design review, we can manufacture your customized machine.
Specific Types of Tablets
Which Formats are Suitable for Packaging Nutraceutical Tablets?
Our machines and lines are specifically dedicated to single-dose packages like stick packs and sachets. For example, our systems can dose one or more nutraceutical tablets, with dimensions that vary according to your marketing goals, nature of the products and production requirements.
In packaging lines for cartoning, our systems allow you to place from 1 to more than 100 sachets in the same carton. We have developed patented counting units for any number of packages to be picked and placed into cartons. In recent years, our philosophy is to save as much material and product as possible, both for economic and environmental sustainability.
Which Laminates are Suitable for Packaging Nutraceutical Tablets?
Our machines can process all typical heat-sealable composite films, for example: PAP-PE (Paper – Polyethylene); PAP-ALU-PE (Paper – Aluminum – Polyethylene); PET-ALU-PE (polyethylene terephthalate – aluminum – polyethylene) and cold-sealable materials. Our machines can also package sustainable laminates such as PP (Polypropylene), PLA (Polylactic Acid), PAP (Paper), Bio-PE (Bio-based polyethylene), and more on request.
