Speedyform The Ilpra Speedyform model is suitable for forming containers made of flexible and semi-rigid material. The design is innovative and the structure extremely compact being shorter than 4 mt. long. The machine keeps the same versatility as models belonging to a higher class, including film width customisation. It is the most rational investment to enter the packaging field through deep- drawing packaging.

Formpack FRS The Formpack FRS, also available in version with variable film width, is manufactured according to the future user's requirements and properly concieved to satisfy medium and large productions. The machine can work with flexible or semi-rigid film. All the units have been designed to make the size change, sealing and forming film loading quicker and simple. In addition the function control is straightforward due to the user friendly Touch Screen. All functions can be easily recalled by pressing the part of the screen concerning the working station which has to be checked.

Optiform The Ilpra Optiform is the result of our long experience in the food-packaging field. Its design takes into consideration the requirement of an industrial mass-production and allows the abatement of production unit costs. That's the reason why we can offer a high quality product at a competitive price. In addition to this, this model can also be customised; you can establish the film width, customize the length of the loading area and fit filling and/or loading systems. The machine can work with soft and semi-rigid forming films, all of which allow both transversal and longitudinal cutting in two different steps or the complete shaped cutting.

Easy Form Easyform is an in-line thermoforming machine with a compact design, completely made of AISI 304 stainless steel and anodized aluminium with IP 65 protection class.  It is suitable for small and medium productions. This model, thanks to high versatility, can be applied in food, industrial and medical field. The machine can work with both flexible and rigid material It is available in two versions Easyform N for sealing only and Easyform VG for vacuum packaging and vacuum/gas packaging. The machine can be easily washed; it is ideal to work in agressive and damp environments The changeover is quick and easy The supplied brushless motor grants high precision and speed This machine can be customized with several options such as printed top web, coding units, dosing systems, slicers, in line flexographic printer, as well as obtain the "Europe hole" in blister packaging.

Venere Pictured below is the blister forming Venere 7050 machine series, extremely flexible thermoforming machines which can be utilised by large and small industries. Max. thermoforming dimensions: 700 times 500 times 110h. Thermoforming "vacuum only" in positive. Vacuum pump 60 m3.

Thermoformatura Pictured below is the thermoforming Thermoformatura 5035 machine. Max. available thermoforming and cutting area: mm.500 times 350 times 100h. This machine has 3 thermoforming options: vacuum + pressure vacuum only pressure only. Oleodynamic cut by means of die cutting.

The machines model Qform and Vform are new conception thermoforming machines, able to conjugate flexibility and production speed. They are completely automatic and allow thermoforming of materials in reel like PS - PVC - PET. The machine operation and the setting up of the working sequences are made by a control panel of Touch Screen sort easy to use. The machines Qform and Vform are endowed with: Film heating area, made up of 28 infrared heaters, divided into 14 zones, adjustable in percentage from 0 to 100 by PLC directly. Electronic change of the film band and the advance step. Film driving by punching chain. Cutting by guillotine (Qform) Hydraulic punch cutter (Vform) Thermoforming possibility by vacuum only both in negative and in positive. Mould holding plate with prearrangement for cooling by liquid and with possibility to thermoregulate the temperature. Maximum ergonomics for the mould drawing thanks to a telescopic mechanism which moves the mould out of the machine.

TVP - 64 / TVP - 67 The plastic film is unwound from the reel and warmed up in the heating module; when the preset process temperature has been reached, the film is driven into the moulding zone (positive or negative, depending on the item features) where the shape is formed, by means of vacuum and pressure in succession. After moulding the film goes into the die cutting station, where the shaped item is split from the film and, thereafter, follows to the piling station, ready for collection. The film waste is rewound again for an easy handling. Servomotor-assisted thermoforming station, for an absolute positioning accuracy High speed mould /countermould ascent and descent Hydraulic die-cutting by double action, high precision toggle Operation control of all working parameters by means of PLC User friendly, sliding touch screen interface Internal high speed communication Ethernet network Sturdy and accessible frame which allows for easy and simple maintenance jobs Differential heating system, by means of moving louvers (patented) All sorts of thermoplastics acceptable (PVC, PET, OPS, PP, etc.) Ergonomic design, to minimize operator stress On-line checking by modem (optional) TVP 64-67 BROCHURE

BPC-15 The plastic film is unwound from the reel and warmed up in the heating module; when the preset process temperature has been reached, the film is driven into the moulding zone (positive or negative, depending on the item features) where the blister is formed. After moulding the film goes into the filling area, where the blisters are filled with the relevant items, then sealed with plastic or cardboard. The filled blisters follow to the die cutting station where the hole punching is performed and they are split from the film. Finished blisterpacks are collected and the waste film is cut in sections for removal. Sturdy frame, of ergonomic design to reduce operator stress Quick and easy access to the tooling, thus minimizing changeover time Operation control of all working parameters by means of PLC User friendly touch screen interface Accessible structure for simple and fast maintenance jobs On-line checking by in-built modem (optional)

BPC 25 / BPC 35 The plastic film is unwound from the reel and warmed up in the heating module; when the preset process temperature has been reached, the film is driven into the moulding zone (positive or negative, depending on the item features) where the blister is formed. After moulding the film goes into the filling area, where the blisters are filled with the relevant items, then sealed either with cardboard or with plastic. The filled blisters follow to the punching and die cutting stations, where they are split from the film and, thereafter, ready for collection. The film waste is rewound again for an easy handling. Fully modular build, for adaptation to different production requirements and conditions Ergonomic design to reduce operator stress Quick and easy access to the tooling, thus minimizing changeover time Operation control of all working parameters by means of PLC User friendly touch screen interface Sturdy and accessible structure for simple and fast maintenance jobs Same station accepts heat or High Frequency sealing (as an option) On-line checking by in-built modem (optional)

BPC-25-N / BPC-35-N The plastic film is unwound from the reel and warmed up in the heating module; when the preset process temperature has been reached, the film is driven into the moulding zone (positive or negative, depending on the item features) where the blister is formed.
