Stick Pack Machines for the Pharmaceutical Industry

Universal Pack designs and builds a wide range of vertical, intermittent-motion stick pack packaging machines. Our stick pack machines guarantee a compact solution combining the highest output with a small footprint. Our stick pack machines are specifically built to meet the stringent needs of the pharmaceutical industry. These solutions include many advantages, such as great dose accuracy, minor wrapping material waste, easy handling and cleaning. Moreover, our user-friendly and modular stick pack machines allow our customers to reduce downtime and fulfill their increasingly high production demands.

The machine’s output is based on the number of lanes and speed (cycles/min). Stick pack’s dimensions determine the maximum number of lanes, whilst the speed depends on the product, film, dose, stick format and many other factors.
