Introduction

Deblister machines is an automatic tablet picking (stripping) machines for recovering drugs from the packaging board of aluminum plastic foam cover with defects,it play a vital role in the pharmaceutical industry by removing tablets or capsules from blister packaging. This article will discuss the deblistering process, types of deblister machines, their applications and benefits, factors to consider when selecting a machine, key features, and proper operation and maintenance.

de-blister machine for capsule or tablet

The Deblistering Process

It use the micro motor and the primary reducer drive a set of rollers simulating the action of manual stripping tablets to peel off the aluminum plastic bubble cover plate of the whole plate from the defective packaging plate, and collect the particles and the packaging separately through the guide plate and the particle baffle plate.

This process can be carried out using manual, semi-automatic, or automatic deblister machines, depending on the production scale and requirements.

Applications of Deblister Machines

Deblister machines are essential for quality control and waste reduction in the pharmaceutical industry. They are commonly used in situations such as packaging errors, product recalls, or expired products. Deblister machines help save valuable products, reduce waste, and maintain compliance with industry regulations.

Three Benefits of Deblister Machines

1.for recycling packaging waste.
2.to avoid to mix it with the good product and production/packaging areas.
3.100% prevent them from entering the market

The main parts of deblister machine

It is composed of 304-grade stainless steel shell, micro motor, primary reducer, roller combination, guide plate combination particle rubber plate sequential connection, equipped with electrical brake switch and lock switch.

  3. The equipment has high precision and good effect. The capsules and tablets are extracted completely from the aluminum board, and the capsules and tablets will not be squeezed out. The equipment has a long service life.
  4. Reasonable design, attention to details, the whole design process is based on the need of the actual users. It is safe to operate, easy to move, different in sizes, easy to adjust the arrangement of the medicine board, and there is no need to replace the mold. It is able to be meet the actual needs of the workshop to the largest extent.
  5. The product is approved by the European and American customers, and has a good reputation among domestic users. It is small in size and flexible, convenient and practical, and enjoys a high performance-to-price ratio.
  6. Advanced features and technologies can enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of deblister machines. Some key features include:
  7. Adjustable settings for different blister sizes and packaging materials
  8. Gentle product handling to prevent damage to capsules or tablets during extraction

Factors to Consider When Selecting a Deblister Machine

Production capacity: Choose a machine that can meet your production volume and speed requirements. The common requirement is from 50blister/min 120blister/min

Compatibility: Ensure the machine is compatible with the blister packaging types and sizes you work with.

Operation and maintenance: Select a machine that is user-friendly and easy to maintain.

Budget and total cost of ownership: Consider the initial investment, as well as ongoing maintenance and operating costs.

Proper Operation and Maintenance

  1. The good quality lubricants (lubricating oil or lithium soap oil)have been sealed into sliders before delivery for the standard products. Please lubricate sliders after they are stalled for use and running. and before formal running. Please use lubricants with the same lithium soap oil when lubricating. (Breaking the oil into sliders with a compressor gun via the oil nozzle attached to the slider. The degree of viscous oil is 30-150cSt, the Great Wall or Mobil is suggested to use)
  2. The anti-corrosive oil has been painted at the surrounding surface of the module screw before delivery for the standard products; when installing, if there’s cleaning and wiping module behavior, proper lubricating oil should be coated on the parts that are exposed to the outside before the installation
  3. As the sliders of the linear guideway are composed of many plastic parts, please avoid contacting or soaking these parts with organic solvents when cleaning, to avoid product damage.
  4. Foreign body entry is one of the reasons for slider mistakes and collisions;it should pay attention to avoid this.
  5. Dismantling linear guideway parts at will may cause the foreign body to enter sliders or reducing product accuracy. Please do not dismantle the product at will.
  6. When finding the running of product is not smooth or there’s duston the bal track surface. product maintenance should be done timelto avoid the worsening of steel ball and screw wear.
  7. Running situation should be confirmed for every 50km running, or every two to six months, to eradicate accumulated dirt and supplement lubricating oil, or to choose to add a protective cover additionally.Regular maintenance is recommended after that
