Abstract: The blister pack for medicinal products comprises a bottom film in which blister pockets are formed, which are surrounded by webs of the bottom film. The blister pockets comprise a two-level shape with a first recess and second recess situated lower down. A lidding film is sealed to the webs of the bottom film and to a strip of active material, which is arranged in each blister pocket. The medicinal product is accommodated in the second recess, and the strip of active material is accommodated in the first recess. The first recess comprises, in a bottom area thereof, a peripheral rib, which extends around the second recess, or at least two projecting knobs, which are arranged next to the second recess, wherein the strip of active material rests on the rib or on the knobs.

Abstract: The sealing roll includes a stationary internal shaft and an inductively heatable roll jacket supported with freedom to rotate around the shaft. A plurality of induction coils is wound around the shaft over ferrites, which are open to the outside. Cables for the induction coils are laid through a cable conduit in the shaft for connection to an external induction generator. A water cooling channel for indirectly cooling the induction coils is also arranged in the shaft. A cavity is formed in at least an axial subsection of the sealing roll between the roll jacket and the shaft, and at least part of a temperature detection device is arranged in the cavity or adjacent to the cavity so that an IR temperature sensor receives radiation emitted by the roll jacket and thus detects a temperature of the roll jacket.

Abstract: The device for sealing together a formed bottom sheet and a lidding sheet between a feed roll and a sealing roll has a heating unit for preheating the lidding sheet before the sealing operation. The heating unit is a contactless induction heating device which has coils and magnetic-field influencing elements which are arranged transversely to the travel direction of the lidding sheet and opposite at least one of the coils. The distance between each of the magnetic-field influencing elements and the at least one coil is adjusted by a control unit on the basis of measurement values of temperature sensors arranged downstream of the magnetic-field influencing elements in order to regulate the temperature profile of the lidding sheet.

Abstract: The method for inserting cotton wads into containers uses a wad transport unit, which comprises two star wheels, each having three wad holders. The two star wheels are mounted rotatably on the same rotational axis but with an offset from each other, and each star wheel is driven by its own separate drive means. During rotation of the star wheels, one of the three wad holders of each star wheel is horizontally shifted in such a way that the three wad holders of each star wheel are arranged in a straight line and are thus located above three containers to be filled with the wads.

Abstract: The device for inspecting separately conveyed tablets or capsules has a guide device for guiding the separately conveyed tablets or capsules, which defines a predetermined tablet pathway, and a heating element designed as a hotplate, which is arranged in an area of the guide device. The device further has an IR sensor for detecting radiation in an infrared range arranged opposite the heating element such that the tablet pathway passes between the heating element and the IR sensor, and an evaluation unit connected to the IR sensor and adapted to compare actual measurement values of the IR sensor with at least one predetermined nominal measurement value.

Abstract: The device for the quantitatively regulated delivery of bulk product includes a supply tank for the bulk product and a slider element, which forms the boundary of an outlet gap on one side. The slider element comprises on its front end an elastic, U-shaped loop, the upper part of which is fixed in position, whereas a rear portion of the lower part of the loop is connected to a linear drive. The linear drive can be used both to adjust the width of the outlet gap by translational movement of the lower section of the loop and to produce a small-amplitude back-and-forth movement of the lower section of the loop. In this way, it is possible to release bulk product of various shapes and sizes reliably and without damage in a quantitatively regulated manner.
