Top 5 Features To Look For In Pharmaceutical Packaging System

 


Pharmaceutics carry critical importance in human life. Every practice involved in this healing industry requires meticulous operation. From the course of treatment to the dosage measures and storage, every aspect is managed with the utmost precision. This precision is well reflected in keeping all the drugs from damage and contamination. How is this precision attained?

Pharmaceutical packaging plays a vital role in attaining precision in keeping all the drugs undamaged and uncontaminated. It deals with every process along the way starting from the primary packaging to end-of-line operations and warehousing. Considering the stakes and stringent regulatory standards, the manufacturers must operate with an efficient packaging system that ensures the safety, integrity, and efficacy of medicines.

How do you, as a manufacturer, ensure the functionality of a pharmaceutical packaging system? Below are the features to look for that'll help you make the ideal choice.

1.  High Precision and Sterility

Precision is paramount in the Pharma Industry. Accurate dosage quantities are crucial to maintaining uniformity. Precise Pharmaceutical Packaging Solutions efficiently manage this uniformity, maintain regulatory standards, and prevent wastage.

Nichrome’s high-precision automated solutions from powder jar filling machines to carton packing machines, are designed for tablets, capsules, powders, injectables, gels and liquids and are equipped with advanced filling and sealing technologies that eliminate the scope of errors and ensure consistent packaging quality.

2.  Versatile Packaging Solutions

The Pharma Industry deals with a diverse range of product forms that require various packaging formats like sachets, blister packs, bottles, etc. Versatile packaging solutions avail the adaptability to changing pharmaceutical needs and enhance the flexibility of production.  This indeed makes it a valuable investment.

3.  Pharmaceutical Packaging System with Track and Trace Solutions

The services of packaging solutions aren't limited to just packaging operations. There are several other challenges such as counterfeiting and supply chain transparency. To overcome these the track and trace solutions ensure that every packed product can be identified, verified and traced throughout the transport.

Nichrome Data Over Internet (NDOIT) offers partial or complete track-and-trace solutions right from the raw material stage to retail sales with software operations, cloud storage including real-time data and even the complete hardware i.e. packaging system for seamless product identification and tracking. 

4.  End-of-Line Efficiency

Automated systems for secondary and end-of-line packing processes such as cartoning machines, labelling and palletizing machines help reduce the operation time and scope for manual errors. This automation streamlines the logistics and distribution of products, maintaining the quality and ensuring the final packaging stage operations run smoothly.

Nichrome's end-of-line packaging machines are engineered to provide businesses with enhanced operational efficiency. We offer customized solutions like Automatic Case Erector, Automatic Pallet Dispensing, Collation, Multiple Line Configuration Integration, and Stretch Wrapping. Along with secondary packaging and palletizing, Nichrome is a leading shrink wrapping machine manufacturer in India that provides advanced case-packing and bottle-packing solutions. With end-to-end pharmaceutical packaging solutions, we are dedicated to simplifying and accelerating packaging operations.

5.  Cost-Effective Solutions

Cost-effectiveness holds equal importance as the high-quality standards in the Pharma Industry. Manufacturers can effectively waive off a good amount of costs by eliminating the investment in labour costs with automation, energy-efficient systems and low-maintenance designs.

This cost control could be achieved with Nichrome’s innovative yet cost-effective solutions tailored to pharmaceutical needs. We have aided many businesses in reducing their reliance on human labour with automated and integrated packaging systems, helping them save some hefty costs in the pharmaceutical packaging requirements and leading them to enhanced cost efficiency.

Filling Systems for Fulfilling Packaging

 


Across industries around the globe, automatic packaging machines have been on an exponential growth path. The major reasons for this are their speed, accessibility and ease of use as well as the superior appeal of the packaging.

The filling system is a critical element of both vertical form-fill-seal machines and horizontal form-fill-seal machines. This is a component that is responsible for the accurate measurement and release of the specified quantity of the product that is to be filled in each pouch. The choice of filler is made on the basis of the product that has to be packed. Some common filling systems include the cup filler, auger filler, linear weigh filler, combination weigh filler, piston filler among others.

Being the leading provider of integrated packaging solutions, and a renowned packaging machine manufacturer, Nichrome brings to you a plethora of filling systems for diverse applications in the food, pharma and non-food segments. The filling systems are selected on the basis of the product that needs to be packed. Whether it is liquid packaging, grain packaging, snack packaging, oil packaging, sugar packaging or ready-to-eat food packaging - different products will need different kinds of filling systems.

There are primarily two basic criteria used by packagers use to determine the right filling system for their particular application:
 

Criteria for Choosing a Filler 

Level of automation: Filling systems are designed to be integrated with automated packaging systems. They can also be configured to operate as single, semi-automatic machines, for eg, by integrating the filler with capping machinery. 

To pinpoint the level of automation required for your filling system, it is important to determine the packaging rate and capacity you will require. In case of higher production levels, it may be necessary to use something like an eight-headed automatic filling machine with the option of adding additional heads in the future.

Filling process: The filling process is determined by the distinctive traits of the packaged product. A milk filling machine and a powder filling machine will need different configurations and designs. Same goes for an automatic sugar filling machine and edible oil filling machine - they will all need different kinds of fillers to operate.

For instance, gravity fillers are apt for thin and free-flowing products. Denser, viscous products cannot work just on the basis of gravity, and hence a piston filler or pump filling machine needs to be used instead.
