Automatic blister packaging machine: an efficient tool for intelligent packaging

　　In the modern manufacturing industry, product packaging is not only to protect the product, but also carries the role of enhancing brand image and promoting sales. With the consumer market on packaging quality and efficiency requirements, the traditional manual packaging or semi-automatic equipment has been difficult to meet the needs of mass production. Automatic blister packaging machine as a kind of high efficiency, intelligent automation equipment, with high-speed production, precision molding and sealing firm features, widely used in food, medicine, electronics, hardware, toys and other industries, become an important equipment in the field of automated packaging.

　　First, the definition and working principle of automatic blister packaging machine

　　1. Definition: Automatic Blister Packaging Machine is a kind of automatic packaging equipment which will soften the plastic sheet or film by heating and then adsorb it on the surface of the mold by vacuum, so that the plastic material will form the shape consistent with the mold, and then cut, fill and seal. This equipment can realize fully automatic operation from sheet conveying, heating and forming, sealing and cutting, finished product output and other processes.

　　2. Working Principle-The working process of automatic blister packaging machine mainly includes the following steps:

　　1. Sheet supply and heating: PVC, PET, PS, PP and other sheet materials are automatically fed into the equipment. The sheet is heated evenly by constant temperature heating system to soften it to plasticizable state.

　　2. Blister molding: Vacuum is drawn by vacuum pump to make the softened plastic sheet close to the surface of the mold to form the required shape. After vacuum molding, the plastic sheet will be cooled and shaped quickly.

　　3. Product filling and sealing: Automatically fill items such as tablets, electronic components, food or hardware parts. Adopt heat sealing or high frequency sealing technology to seal the blister cover with the back card or aluminum foil.

　　4. Cutting and output: Cut the sealed blister package into individual packaging units. The finished products are automatically conveyed to the next process or collected.

　　Second, the core advantages of automatic blister packaging machine

　　1. High-efficiency automation, improve production efficiency: automatic blister packaging machine realizes the full automation of the packaging process, from sheet conveying, molding to sealing and cutting, completed in one go. Packing speed is fast, up to 300 times/minute, greatly improving production efficiency. Capable of continuous operation, suitable for high-volume production lines, reducing manual intervention.

　　2. Beautiful and firm packaging, enhance the value of the product: automatic blister packaging machine can form the precise size and shape of the regular packaging shell. The sealing effect is firm and neat, preventing the product from being loose or contaminated during transportation. High transparency of the blister cover is conducive to the display of products and enhance the attractiveness of goods.

　　3. Wide range of application, compatible with a variety of materials and products: support PVC, PET, PP, PS, ABS and other sheet materials, to adapt to different packaging needs. Can be used in food, medicine, electronics, hardware, daily necessities and many other industries. Flexible adjustment of molds and specifications, compatible with different product packaging.

　　4. Intelligent and simple operation, saving labor cost: PLC control system and touch screen operation, intuitive and simple parameter adjustment. Equipped with automatic detection and error correction function to improve packaging precision and yield. High degree of automation, save labor cost and reduce labor intensity.

　　5. Energy saving and environmental protection, reduce material loss: automatic blister packaging machine accurately control the amount of sheet material used, reduce waste. Optimize the sealing technology to ensure firm packaging while saving packaging materials. Meet the environmental standards, adapt to the demand for green packaging.

　　Third, the application areas of automatic blister packaging machine

　　1. Food industry: In the food field, automatic blister packaging machine is widely used in the packaging of candy, chocolate, cookies, jelly, dried fruit, frozen food and other products. Adopting food grade PET or PVC sheet to ensure food safety. Strong sealing prevents the food from moisture or deterioration and prolongs the shelf life.

　　2. Pharmaceutical industry: Pharmaceutical industry adopts automatic blister packaging machine for the packaging of tablets, capsules, injections, medical devices and so on. Adopting aluminum-plastic or PVC/aluminum foil packaging to ensure the sealing and moisture-proof of medicines. It meets the GMP standard and conforms to the safety specification of pharmaceutical packaging.

　　3. Hardware and tools industry: applied to the packaging of screws, nuts, knives, pliers, screwdrivers and other small hardware. The packaging is beautiful and easy to display, which helps to enhance the competitiveness of the products in the market. Firm sealing prevents parts from falling apart during transportation.

　　4. Electronic products and accessories: Blister packaging machine is widely used in the packaging of headphones, data cables, U disk, electronic components and other electronic products. Blister cover is transparent and beautiful, easy for consumers to check the products. Dust, moisture, anti-static, to protect electronic products from damage.

　　5. Daily chemical and stationery industry: applied to toothbrush, razor, cosmetics, small household appliances, toys and other products packaging. Beautiful packaging, enhance the effect of product display. Suitable for supermarket shelf display, enhance the brand image.

　　Fourth, the development trend of automatic blister packaging machine

　　1. Intelligent and automated upgrading: automatic blister packaging machine will introduce AI visual inspection and automatic deskew function to ensure packaging accuracy and quality. Support automatic identification of sheet thickness and intelligent adjustment of temperature and pressure, improve molding quality. Realize remote monitoring and intelligent maintenance to reduce the failure rate.

　　2. Multi-functional integration: linkage with automatic labeling machine, coding machine and cartoning machine to form an integrated intelligent packaging line. Realize packaging, coding, labeling, testing automation, improve production efficiency. Adapt to the multi-species, small batch flexible production needs.

　　3. Environmental protection and energy saving development: automatic blister packaging machine will use environmentally friendly sheet material to reduce plastic pollution. Optimize the utilization rate of sheet material to reduce material waste. Adopt energy-saving motor and frequency conversion control, reduce energy consumption, in line with green manufacturing standards.

　　As an important equipment in modern packaging industry, automatic blister packaging machine is widely used in many fields such as food, medicine, electronics, hardware and so on with its features of high efficiency automation, firm sealing and beautiful packaging. With the development trend of intelligence, integration and environmental protection, the automatic blister packaging machine will be constantly upgraded to bring more efficient and intelligent automated packaging solutions for enterprises to further enhance production efficiency and market competitiveness.
