HERMA: New Labelling System for Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics
HERMA labelling machines once again reinforce their performance within the healthcare and pharmaceutical sector: as the world's largest company specialising in clinical diagnostics, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics has now opted for a HERMA 040M wrap-around labelling system. It is part of a completely new filling and labelling line at the company's Marburg, Germany, site.
The HERMA system applies labels to four-sided plastic containers for diagnostic fluid at the company's site with a single label on three sides, so-called U-labelling. The crucial factor in the decision was not just the high precision of the HERMA system. It could also be integrated into the relatively restricted space available without any compromise in terms of performance or ease of use thanks to its compact design. "The modular structure of the HERMA system from proven standard components guarantees a high level of reliability, but is flexible enough at the same time that we were able to easily implement a number of individual special requests," confirms Jens Geisel, Project Manager at Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics. The diverse portfolio of the Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics products includes a large selection of analytical systems for clinical chemistry, immunodiagnostics, hematology, hemostasis, microbiology, diabetes, urine chemistry, blood gas analysis and molecular diagnostics as well as laboratory automation. The company employs around 14,000 people worldwide and has its main European production site in Marburg.
Intermittent rotary star for high precision
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics places great value on top product quality and 100% on-schedule deliveries to its customers. This also places particularly strict requirements on the labelling process. The intermittent rotary star enables the HERMA 040M to apply labels extremely reliably and precisely to around 60 plastic containers per minute. The system is controlled via a touchscreen. This only displays the menu items that are actually needed and therefore does away with a confusing array of buttons. In addition, the housing that also has an ergonomic design and the extra smooth and thus easy to clean surfaces guarantee maximum security and optimum ease of use in operational practice.
