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.

Ergonomics improves efficiency thanks to a servo-pneumatic balancer that enables employees in assembly and logistics to lift and move loads effortlessly, using just two fingers. At the heart of the balancer is the powerful and reliable drive solution YHBP from Festo with automatic weight detection and safety Performance Level d – perfect for the automotive and packaging industries.

Standardisation is a recipe for success for a fruitful collaboration between packaging machine manufacturers and automation specialists. The strategic partnership between Syntegon and Festo is a great example of this. Thanks to this cooperation, Syntegon was able to simplify its processes and manage the challenges posed by the pandemic and the supply chain crisis more effectively.
