Packaging Machines for Nutraceutical Tablets

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 first step to create and design solutions for their satisfaction in terms of flexibility, reliability and efficiency.

We provide our stick pack and sachet machine for tablets with different and specific dosing systems:

• Rotating tilted plate, with automatic detection-rejection of broken tablets;
• Vibrating tablet bowl feeders, customized to exactly fit the tablet dimensions;
• Aligner/dispenser, with dedicated channel to reject broken tablets.

Thanks to these dosing systems, our solutions can dose functional food, dietary and sports supplements in capsules, rounded and shaped tablets.

Nutraceutical Requirements

As fundamental parts of the safety measures in the pharmaceutical industry, we can 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 longlasting partnerships with major pharmaceutical corporations helped us develop the most suitable systems in terms of production management, products traceability and compliance with the latest regulations. This process of constant growth and enhancement reflects on our prime quality integrated automatic packaging lines and the abundant set of accessories to increase quality control.

Our internal laboratory analyzes your product and laminate, to design and build the best solution for your need. After internal tests and a thorough design review, we can manufacture your customized machine.

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, we can dose 1 or more nutraceutical tablets in a single sachet, whose dimensions vary depending on your marketing goals, nature of the products and production requirements.

In packaging lines for cartoning, our systems allow you to put from 1 up to 100 or more sachets in the same carton. We have developed patented counting units for any amount of packages to be picked and put 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.
