This year, groninger introduces INTEGRA to the U.S. market at PACK EXPO International and Healthcare Packaging EXPO in Chicago from October 14-17. INTEGRA is the result of a collaborative Vision between groninger and SKAN, representing what is said to be the first line in the market that integrates both an isolator and filling machine from the design process.
INTEGRA was developed with a focus on processing toxic products. Crucial aspects include optimum ease of cleaning and shorter decontamination cycles. Thanks to the integration of the filling machine into the isolator and the integration of the innovative SKANFOG decontamination system, the entire line can be cleaned and decontaminated in approximately 30 min, with accessibility for operating personnel.
Increased security and support for format changes is made possible by the use of QR codes, which give operators a better overview of position, installation order and recipe selection.
Different line configurations in the INTEGRA machine family are available with either standardized RABS or isolator modules and are capable of a maximum production output of 400 vials/min.
groninger will also showcase the lite series; a compact and flexible semi-automated solution for companies in the cosmetic and consumer health industries. The groninger lite series can handle up to 45 parts/min. It is IoT-ready, industrial PC-controlled, with a customizable conveyor, multi-language HMI, clinical version (available), and app-based monitoring.
