The machine includes 4 open product load stations, with a 12-in. x 16-in. seal area. Other features of the U8 are “quick install” feeder stations for inserts, blisters and cards. The U8 has an independent electro-mechanical drive system as well as a servo driven turntable. The machine has full PLC control and a user-friendly operator interface panel. Interlocked door panels on the U8 base allow for quick access to the drive system allowing quick reconfiguration of the machine in the field.
