SL 6 Suppository and Ovule Form, Fill and Seal

Machine overview

Modular FFS line for suppository production: flexible solutions for thermoforming, filling and sealing.

Four independent modular units make up the line:

• PA 2000 – thermoforming unit, which winds out the two reels of plastic film and moulds them (through compressed air blowing) to form cavities in a continuous strip.
• SG 6 R – filling unit, which fills the suppository mass into the cavities formed in the strip.
• SG 6 F – cooling unit, which solidifies the suppository mass.
• SG 6 S – sealing/cutting unit, which seals each cavity, stamps a code number, knurls strips and cuts them into any number of suppositories.
 
Being a modular line, purchasing a single SL 6 unit is a feasible option.
 
An entry-level option for starting a suppository/ovule production can be represented by purchasing a SG 6 RFS, a modular FS machine, which works from rolls of pre-formed plastic suppository cavities and includes the filling (SG 6 F), the cooling (SG 6 F) and the sealing/cutting units (SG 6 S), leaving the PA2000 thermoforming unit as a second investment step.

Machine highlights


  1. Flexible configuration

    The SL 6 modular line allows for customised set-ups based on production needs.


  2. Efficient production

    Capable of continuous operation, streamlining the suppository manufacturing process.


  3. Entry-level option

    The SG 6 machine provides a cost-effective way to start suppository production with pre-formed cavities.


  4. Interchangeable units

    Each unit can be purchased independently, allowing for phased investments in production.


  5. Scalable solution

    The line can easily expand as production demands increase, accommodating future growth.
