Pharmaceutical tablet packaging machine, Eco Blister FBP-320E
This new pharmaceutical tablet packaging machine was developed with the ease of use in mind and the locations of the operation panel and switches, the height of the tablet filling table, and workers' movements were ergonomically reviewed to improve operability, usability, safety, maintainability, and the ease of cleaning.  The panel was designed in a user friendly manner to allow even less experienced machine operators to easily check the production status. 

 

* The Machinery Industrial Design Award was created by Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun, Ltd. in 1970 to promote and develop industrial product design. This year marks its 48th anniversary.  Many of the products that were given awards during the past years were highly regarded as cutting-edge products that symbolized the design direction of that time.
