The German manufacturer IWKA introduced the Blisterpac BP10, a small blister packer. This device can keep the sealing speed constant and does not need to consider minor changes in the equipment during the entire production process. This makes the early stage speed confirmation work easy to implement, and it is in line with the actual production requirements of users, convenient and flexible. The Blisterpac BP10 uses servo drives for almost all its operation. However, the servo drive mentioned here is different from the servo drive in the traditional sense. The intelligent control system adopted by BP10 can adjust the speed and the relationship between each drive.

This intelligent control system was applied by IWKA on the high-speed Blisterpac BP20. IWKA's distributors in the UK pointed out that the Blisterpac BP10 blister packaging machine can significantly reduce the use of prior velocities in comparison to conventional blister packers. And when performing a variety of different product operations, there is no need to perform re-confirmation operations. The constant sealing time means that in order to maintain the reliability of the seal, the sealing time, temperature and pressure must be kept constant. The Blisterpac BP10 Blister Packer also features a quick-change product that can be completed in 15 minutes. In addition, while the Blisterpac BP10 blister packer can quickly complete product replacement, the intelligent control system can quickly return to normal production and return to full speed within seconds. The Blisterpac BP10 blister wrapper has a box-type design. All drives are mounted behind the machine wall and all coiled cables are connected to the machine wall with plugs and sockets as much as possible. This design meets GMP certification standards. On the other hand, in order to meet the different preferences of users, the device is equipped with a rotary and flat sealing system. According to IWKA's sales and marketing manager, "This device greatly facilitates the user, and the user does not need to perform complex early-stage speed adjustment confirmation steps in order to achieve optimal production speed for different products. Furthermore, in each batch of production processes, If the properties of the drugs are different, the blisters production can be changed without any speed adjustment confirmation, and the speed of the Blisterpac BP10 blister packaging machine, which is mainly used to produce small batches and medium batches, can be up to 300 plates. /minute."
