End-of-line carton bundling and stretch banding machine wrapping grouped pharmaceutical cartons in polyethylene (PE) film without shrink tunnels.
Up to 50 bundles/minute (Up to 300 cartons/min)
The ST-100 Stretch Banding Machine bundles individual pharmaceutical cartons into neat multipacks (e.g. 1x10 or 2x5 configurations) using stretchable polyethylene film. Because it relies on mechanical tension rather than heat shrink tunnels, it eliminates product thermal exposure.

Third-party certification of the quality management system under which every machine in the range is designed, built and tested. It certifies the process, not the performance of an individual machine.
Evidence: ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System Certificate (PDF · 2 KB)Manufacturer self-declaration that the machine meets the essential health and safety requirements of the Machinery Directive, supported by a technical file and risk assessment to EN ISO 12100.
Evidence: EC Declaration of Conformity Template (Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC) (PDF · 2 KB)World Health Organization guidance on good manufacturing practice, widely used as the reference for export markets and WHO prequalification.
All configurations
Confirms that the ST-100 design, as specified, meets the user requirement specification before manufacture begins.
GMP configurations
Documents that the machine is installed to drawing, connected to the specified utilities and calibrated.
GMP configurations
Challenges the machine across its operating ranges, alarms and interlocks to show it performs as specified.
Customer-executed; product-specific acceptance criteria
Executed by the customer with our support: three consecutive runs with seal integrity, print quality and pack count within specification.
All configurations; customer witnessing optional
Witnessed at our works before dispatch, so defects are corrected where the parts, tools and engineers are.
All configurations
Repeats the critical FAT checks at the customer site after installation and utility connection.
