With the blister packaging machine from IWK, sustainability is not just lip service: with recyclable packaging material, low energy consumption, high speed and ergonomics, the CABLIblue 870 card-to-card blister system is proving to be a real trendsetter. The use of electrical automation technology from Festo increases sustainability and efficiency immensely in this application.

Festo, one of the world's leading manufacturers of automation technology, is fully integrating Eichenberger Gewinde AG from Burg in Switzerland as of 1 April 2026. In future, the Swiss company will operate under the name "Festo Gewindetriebe AG".

Innovative guide technology, high rigidity and guide load capacity for more load in the same installation space - these are the features of the new ELGD axis family from Festo. In addition, powerful drive elements offer high feed forces and accelerations for shorter cycle times and a long service life. A stainless steel cover strip is friction-free on the outside and does not allow any particles to form there. This makes the drives in the axis family ideal for use in cleanrooms.
