Special features of ampoules

Ampoules require special care during packaging. Schubert machines ensure break-proof handling through precise robotic technology and sensor-assisted singulation. This technology is ideal for small batches and varying formats.

1. Erecting the carton
A TLM-F3 robot picks up the blanks from the magazine and hands them over to the TLM-F2 robot.

2. Erecting the insert
A TLM-F3 robot picks up a flat partition and hands it over to the TLM-F2 robot

3. Infeed Ampoules
The ampoules enter the system in a vertical position and are tilted 90° by a TLM-F2 robot.

4. Load Ampoules
The rotary table first rotates 45°. A TLM-F2 robot then picks up five ampoules and places them into the erected carton.

5. Infeed, Folding and Load the Leaflets
A TLM-F3 robot also picks up the package leaflet from a magazine and presents them to the TLM-F2 robot.

6. Sealing and labeling the carton
A further TLM-F2 robot folds in the side flaps and lables the carton.

7. Discharge carton
The closed carton leaves the machine via a discharge conveyor.

Format change

Quick format change

Quick format changes are crucial for efficient production processes, especially with frequently changing packaging formats. In Schubert pharmaceutical packaging machines, format changes take approximately 30 minutes – entirely tool-free and supported by our plug-and-play philosophy. Coded format parts and RFID detection ensure error-free format changes.

Adjustable or custom-designed tools also provide maximum flexibility for frequently changing formats. The result: reliable processes, minimal downtime, and consistently high packaging quality.
