Primary packaging, liquids

Filling of pharmaceuticals

A sensitive topic - literally: the filling of syringes in the pharmaceutical sector.
Maximum hygienic and process reliability demands apply here. The technology of choice, when minimum tolerances matter to the filling process: high-performance sensors from SICK

Filling of hygiene articles

Sensors for linear bottle filling must be versatile.
Robust, powerful and meeting all demands:
sensors, safety switches and photoelectric sensors from SICK.

Filling of cosmetics

Tubes are practical and particularly robust containers for semi-liquid goods. Tubes carry a wide variety of brand messages to consumers. The industrial filling and sealing processes involve a variety of tasks for sensors, e.g. turning tubes to the correct position.
Sensors from SICK keep everything in view and under control.

Primary packaging, solids

Packaging of medicaments

Tablets in blister packs, correctly printed with brand labels and use-by date, ready for comfortable individual removal - what seems so convincingly simple as an end-product makes complex demands on the packaging process in the pharmaceutical industry.
Accurate filling, precise sealing, detection of breaks, and freedom from dust are merely examples of the extensive performance profile. Your partner for the complete solution: sensor systems from SICK.

Secondary packaging

Labelling machines

Attaching small, thin labels and reliably checking them, even if they are strongly reflective: photoelectric sensors and photoelectric proximity sensors provide the necessary sensitivity to allow them to shine in labelling machines - reliably at maximum work speeds.

Code printers

The pharmaceutical industry cannot afford any mistakes - neither in primary nor in secondary packaging of medicaments. SICK sensors recognise all poorly printed codes and reliably inform the machine controller.

Stretch-wrapping machines

Differing package shapes and sizes, the handling of packaging materials including protection of hazardous points-of-operation, ensuring material flow, differing reading distances for ID carriers: those who develop plants for industrial final packaging face a wide variety of tasks. Then there are the quality demands: the goods must arrive to customers in perfect condition. It is good to know that there is a partner that offers the sensors, safety and bar code reading systems from a single source: SICK, the solution for final packaging plants of all types.
