Blister machine B 1660 is the newcomer to Uhlmann’s range of machines. It is the result of consistent further development of Uhlmann’s high performance technology. Operating at a speed of up to 700 blisters/minute, the machine processes all common types of forming material. It is not only easy to operate using the TouchScreen with 3D visualization, but also runs particularly quietly in so-called whisper mode. Intelligent solutions such as the tool quick-change system are characteristic of the B 1660. The controlled discharge of waste air and heat guarantees a clean room atmosphere and the production data acquisition system allows fast process analysis.

Increased safety – and in addition increased economy through the entire process chain: with these qualities an innovative closure system for pharmaceutical products totally convinced the jury for the 2007 German Packaging Award. This internationally prestigious prize was awarded to the new type of desiccant closures for tablet containers which Gerresheimer has developed under the Duma® trademark. It is the first company in the world to produce the multi-function plastic products completely in one connected process – together with the integrated desiccant elements. The result is regarded as a pioneering innovation: for the pharma industry it also facilitates fulfilment of the prescribed registration requirements.
