The challenge

The Elmach blister packing range spans a wide set of machine formats, from large multi-track machines to compact single-lane models. Each format carries its own mechanical geometry, feed and sealing behaviour, so a single control programme could not simply be copied across the range.

Machine context

  • Elmach blister packing machine — full line view

  • Elmach machine control panel and operator interface

Our approach

  1. 01Application study per machine format — feed, forming, sealing and cutting behaviour
  2. 02Parameterised PLC control logic so one code base adapts to multiple machine models
  3. 03HMI screen design with recipe handling for format changeover
  4. 04Electrical panel design and control system documentation
  5. 05Installation, commissioning and operator training per machine

Outcome

  • Consistent control behaviour across the Elmach model range
  • Faster format changeover through recipe-driven parameters
  • Reusable engineering that shortened delivery on subsequent machines
  • Clear documentation for the customer's own service team
