The MULTIVAC Group, based in Wolfertschwenden, Germany, has made a name for itself with application-specific packaging solutions in the pharmaceutical, medical and food industries. The portfolio of the company, which was founded in 1961 and has around 7,400 employees, includes various packaging technologies, automation solutions, labeling and inspection systems and, last but not least, packaging materials.
The growing demands for process accuracy and reproducibility in the medical and pharmaceutical industries when packaging sensitive products prompted MULTIVAC to develop a thermoformer packaging machine that meets the increased requirements of customers, the market and legislation. At the same time, the RX 4.0 machine has succeeded in reducing throughput times and maximizing production efficiency and flexibility.
