Farmo Res - Model PRIMA K7 Series - Thermoforming Machine for Single-Dose Pharma Packaging

The Extra Clean options with ESL devices of the SICURA packaging machine were designed to guarantee maximum hygiene and prolong the shelf life of packaged products. These devices combine advanced technology and product dosing in sterile conditions, which are essential for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food sectors.

The main components include:

• ISO 5 Laminar Flow over Entire Area: This feature ensures that the whole area subject to the treatment and dosing of the product is kept under a Class ISO 5 laminar flow. This hygiene standard significantly reduces the risk of contamination to provide a controlled environment that prevents the introduction and proliferation of particles and microorganisms.
• Air Jets for Filtered Forming Flow and Cooling: The air jets used in the forming and cooling processes are fitted with antibacterial filters. These filters ensure that the air used is free from contaminants to ensure an even more sterile and safe environment.
• Upgraded Disinfection Machine: The machine is designed to resist and facilitate disinfection. The glass protections and parts in 316L stainless steel are all adapted to ensure total sterilisation.
• System for Disinfection of the Forming Film with UV-C Germicidal Lamps: This system uses UV-C light, known for its germicidal properties, to continuously sterilise the forming film before it comes into contact with the product. This ensures that the surface that wraps the product is clean, minimising the risk of microbial contamination.

Questi dispositivi ESL non solo estendono la vita sugli scaffali dei prodotti, ma migliorano anche la sicurezza e la qualità del confezionamento, rendendo la SICURA ideale per applicazioni che richiedono standard di igiene elevati. Scopri come SICURA può trasformare il tuo processo produttivo, combinando innovazione e affidabilità per risultati di alta qualità.

These ESL devices not only extend product shelf life, but also improve the safety and quality of the package, making SICURA ideal for applications that require stringent hygiene standards. Find out how SICURA can transform your production process by combining innovation and reliability for high-quality results.

• Forming area with conveying clamps and reel holder.
• Reel holder with material tensioning system
• Heating plates.
• Mould and counter mould with integrated vacuum.
• Loading area customisable based on products to package, with FARMORES robotic handling.
• Sealing, cutting and linkage area with quality control via FARMO VISION camera.
• Automatic linkage to the cartoning machine via FARMO RES robot.
• Separation and collection of waste and scrap including emptying without machine stoppage.

• Advanced Technology: the PRIMA is fully electronic, and installed with units driven by electronic cam servomotors. It allows precise adjustments of stroke and speed directly by the HMI interface, assuring optimised strokes and maximum speed and increasing the efficiency and performance of the machine.
• Simple Maintenance and Cleaning: the units installed on the balcony frame give full visibility of the production flow and make cleaning a fast and simple process, an essential requirement in the pharmaceutical sector.
• Easy Format and Reel Change: the format changeover at front and the reel change system, assisted by the integrated electric lifter, minimise machine downtime, helping to further increase efficiency.
• Robotic Integration: FARMO RES integrates delta robotic solutions for product handling. Each robot is controlled by a set of servomotors for perfectly smooth movements and a reduced energy consumption.
• Product Check Integration: Farmo Vision is an integrated system of cameras that guarantees total quality control directly by the machine’s HMI, with monitoring of the presence and accuracy of the products. With a sole interface, the Farmo Vision system can manage several cameras on the machine or the whole production line, and provides advanced connectivity solutions for interaction with the company network and other devices.
• Packaging Precision and Quality: the machine has positioning sensors that at each cycle guarantee the correct alignment of the sealing and cutting stations with the profile of the packages. The lateral forming clamps allow the forming film to be kept perfectly tensioned (also when machine is stopped) to optimise the heating of the film and produce correctly formed packages even with frequent stops and restarts (waste reduction).

The PRIMA K7 is the result of decades-long experience of FARMO RES in the thermoforming sector, a know-how whose roots go back to the first patent obtained in 1964. This thermoforming machine was specially designed for the packaging of single-dose products. It combines advanced technology with ease of use to guarantee high efficiency and top performance.
