IMA displays latest processing and packaging machines and complete lines at interpack
At around 3,000 m2, the IMA Group’s interpack stand will present new machines and complete lines for the processing and packaging of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, tea, coffee and food. IMA staff will be on hand to demonstrate the company’s range of new offerings. IMA Pharma designs and manufactures automatic machines for the processing and packaging of pharmaceutical products and has the technological expertise to provide bespoke solutions that meet the more sophisticated requirements of the market. IMA Pharma includes the divisions: IMA Active, IMA Life and IMA Safe.
IMA Active division will show the new ADAPTA 200 capsule filler, which boasts exceptional flexibility. Its dosing units can be easily removed and are reversible/interchangeable, giving the possibility of a plug and play shift between different machine configurations and filling combinations. ADAPTA is designed to dose three products into the same capsule (up to five upon request), without affecting the production speed of 200,000 capsules per hour. ADAPTA has an indisputable efficiency as far as in-process control is concerned. Total production control can be achieved — even with product combinations — for each single product dosage, including possible self-adjustment of machine working parameters.
IMA Life division produces a full range of proven systems for fully automatic loading and unloading vials into industrial freeze dryers and will present its latest DA VINCI loading/unloading system at this year’s event. This new generation of loading systems is designed according to the latest international guidelines and can be easily installed under restricted access barrier systems (RABS) or barrier isolation technology.
Finally, IMA Safe division will launch the new SWIFTPACK SP 2-4 multi-channel electronic counter for tablets and capsules. With the experience gained from having supplied over 80 SWIFTPHARM machines throughout the world, IMA Safe has now developed the SWIFTPACK SP 2-4, which along with a smaller footprint and increased output, has a single HMI for control of both its counter and integrated conveyor. Quick changeover components and the tabletop design further improve the machine’s ease of cleanability.
