Shuttle Machines

Shutter blister machines are designed to seal a blister card to a blister. Blisters are plastic depressions that have been designed and formed to hold a product. Shuttle blister machines use tooling (shuttle) designed for the blister and blister card to shuttle the blister and card below the blister card sealing head. When the tooling for the blister shuttle machine is out from under the blister card sealing head, an operator can easily unload a sealed blister card and load the blister, product, and blister card into the tooling.

The operator then activates the blister card machine cycle, which shuttles the blister card tooling below the blister card sealing head where the blister card is sealed to the blister. Shuttle blister machines tend to be the simplest blister sealing machines, but generally have the lowest output.
