X-PEN: Advanced pen and autoinjector assembly solutions
IMA AUTOMATION standard, using our new modular platform approach for pen and autoinjector final assembly systems. With robust latest technologies, labelling as standard, quick time-to-market, compact design, standard machine bases and a fast ROI, our X-PEN system uses state-of-the-art technology: at your fingertips.
Advanced Modularity
X-PEN is based on a Linear Magnetic Transport System (LMTS) which allows flexibility, modularity and speed. IMA AUTOMATION sees the multicarrier system as a core technology for its applications, as it is a smart transport system that optimises machine configurations, with simplified mechanics and integrated electrical cabinet. The transport system is based on the motion of “movers” across a magnetic loop.
Our smart transport system that IMA AUTOMATION are proud of, perfectly matches your pen and autoinjector product requirements.
An integrated turnkey final assembly solution that is smooth, fast, efficient, quiet and of lean design using only the required amount of tracks necessary.
Advanced Technology
Latest technologies whilst achieving robustness and reliability, with labelling as standard.
Electrical Pick and Place
To reduce air consumption and have full control via our PLC, electrical pick & place modules are used. Motors for vertical and horizontal motions are fixed and both are controlled separately. All motors are servo driven on an axis.
Precise Label Application
Labels are fed from a reel and are presented ready for wrapping, a pick & place module transfers the labels to the pens. A roller system wraps the labels around the pens and insures correct alignment of the labels edges. When the reel is empty, either a manual quick change-over process is made, ensuring a rapid return to production, or an automated auto change-over system insures continuous autonomy.
Advanced Quality
X-PEN guarantees quality and control. Using both mechanical and vision systems, with inspection speeds of <80ms, your pen or autoinjector is checked for necessary critical assembly processes and dimensions. The vision system is triggered directly from the Linear Magnetic Transport System (LMTS), insuring accurate device positioning prior to inspection.
Vision inspection is carried out during the transfer at a controlled speed. Having off-the-shelf standard equipment brings its own advantages. A smart machine turning a standard concept into real value in terms of reduced lead times, space efficiency and reliability.
