Automatic tablet packing machines come in several forms—blister, strip, and bottle—each offering unique advantages depending on the type of product and production needs. This article compares the different types to help you understand which machine is the best fit for your business.

Blister Packing Machines

Best Use:

Ideal for pharmaceutical products that require sealed protection from air and light.

Strip Packing Machines

Pros:

· High-speed production, ideal for bulk packaging.

· Compact packaging with minimal material use.

· Double aluminum strip packaging offers enhanced protection for heat-sensitive tablets.

Cons:

· Not all tablet types are suitable for strip packaging.

· May require specific tablet shapes for optimal sealing.

Best Use:

Suited for high-volume production lines where protection from moisture and light is critical, but speed is also essential.

Tablet Bottle Filling Machines

Pros:

· High flexibility in handling different bottle sizes and types.

· Fast production speed, capable of processing thousands of tablets per minute.

· Can be integrated into larger automated production lines.

Cons:

· Requires more space compared to blister or strip packing machines.
