SimTap: High-performance feeding for a wide range of tablet and capsule shapes
Do you want to a range of different tablet geometries and capsule sizes on one blister line – and at high speed? Whether special or standard shapes: the SimTap places your products quickly and specifically in the film pockets. Gentle on the product and with an average fill level of 99.5 percent.
How the SimTap works
From the hopper, the products pass through the vibrating chute, where dust and debris are safely discharged, to the sorting box. This arranges the products by moving them up and down into the filling tubes. Two shut-off fingers per filling tube ensure targeted filling: the lower shut-off finger closes the outlet of the filling tube and releases the lowest product exactly when the blister station is exactly below it. Meanwhile, the upper shut-off finger fixes the subsequent products. The products are placed in the film pockets at the same time – hence the name. SimTap stands for "Simultaneous Tablet Placement".
The SimTap feeder is suitable for continuous and intermittent operation and all blister materials. Operation is fully integrated into the blister line's control system (HMI). Manual settings are no longer necessary.
