Before you replace a line, understand what the installed one can still achieve.

A new product, packaging material, format, or software requirement does not automatically require a new investment.

Several paths may be worth evaluating first:
🔹 Optimize the existing process
🔹 Upgrade a specific function
🔹 Test new materials or formats
🔹 Modernize part of the line
🔹 Prepare a structured investment decision

The Packaging Competence Center combines consulting expertise, a comprehensive test-machine park, and production integration capabilities. Materials, formats, and processes can be evaluated under realistic production conditions without disrupting ongoing operations.

As your Pac-Guide, Uhlmann helps assess different options, reduce risk, and identify the most suitable path forward—whether that means optimization, modernization, or a new investment.

This creates a solid basis for assessing feasibility, validation requirements, potential OEE impact, and the next decision with confidence.

Windows 11 is now the Uhlmann standard.

Since January 2026, all new Uhlmann machines have been delivered with Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2024. The platform is introduced with the new (X)SmartControl SC 4.11, which is exclusively available on this operating system.

What this means for pharmaceutical manufacturers:
🔹 Windows 11 is the standard operating system for all new Uhlmann machines
🔹 Microsoft support is available through October 2034
🔹 The LTSC architecture helps ensure long-term stability by avoiding disruptive feature updates
🔹 Modernizations and software upgrades are available with SC 4.11 and compatible hardware

While the platform migration has been completed for new machines, every installed system requires an upgrade strategy that considers hardware, application requirements, and validation status.

As with any modernization project, a structured technical and validation approach is essential to ensure a smooth transition throughout the machine lifecycle.

"High OEE is more than output. It also depends on how well a packaging line adapts to future requirements."

This perspective from Berthold Laux, Global Business Development Manager at Uhlmann, reflects a challenge many pharmaceutical manufacturers are facing today.

As demand grows and requirements evolve, the question is no longer just how much output a pharma packaging line can deliver. The real challenge is maintaining high OEE while products, formats, materials, and regulatory requirements continue to change.

When evaluating a line concept, several questions become critical:
🔹 How many format changes will the line need to handle?
🔹 Which tablet and capsule geometries must be processed reliably?
🔹 Which materials and packaging configurations may change in the future?
🔹 Could containment, inspection, or Track & Trace requirements evolve?
🔹 Which digital interfaces and upgrades should remain possible?

These considerations help shape the line concept long before the final configuration is selected.

As Pac-Guides, we help customers look beyond individual machine performance and focus on the factors that support sustainable OEE across the entire packaging process, today and throughout the system lifecycle.

Familienbande bei Uhlmann: Mutter und Tochter im Team

Über 50 Jahre Uhlmann-Erfahrung in einer Familie

In unserer Serie Familienbande zeigen wir, wie gelebtes Miteinander bei Uhlmann aussieht. Heute im Fokus: Marianne und Bianca, die als Mutter und Tochter Teil der Uhlmann-Familie sind.

Die Verbindung zu Uhlmann besteht in ihrer Familie bereits seit vielen Jahren. Während Marianne 1984 mit ihrer Ausbildung den Grundstein legte, startete Bianca mehr als drei Jahrzehnte später ebenfalls ihre berufliche Laufbahn bei Uhlmann. Die eine begann als Technische Zeichnerin, die andere startete mit einer Ausbildung und entwickelte sich weiter zur PLC Software Engineer.

🧩 Was sie verbindet?
🔹 Die Begeisterung für technische Berufe.
🔹 Regelmäßige Begegnungen in den Pausen.
🔹 Die Familie kennt Uhlmann schon seit vielen Jahren, auch der Bruder war bereits Teil des Unternehmens.

Auch außerhalb der Arbeit wird gelegentlich über Uhlmann gesprochen, vor allem wenn lustige Geschichten aus dem Arbeitsalltag erzählt werden. Die lange Verbundenheit zum Unternehmen sorgt dabei für viele gemeinsame Erinnerungen.

💬 „Uhlmann war schon damals sehr flexibel. Gerade nach der Familienzeit war der Wiedereinstieg durch die Gleitzeitregelungen ideal. Diese Flexibilität und das Vertrauen in die Mitarbeitenden machen das Arbeiten hier bis heute besonders.“

👉 Bleibt gespannt – die nächste Geschichte aus unserer Serie Familienbande folgt schon bald.

"Setup time is often shaped long before the line actually stops."

This observation from Anna Herter, Global After Sales at Uhlmann Pac-Systeme, reflects one of the key messages from our latest article on OSD packaging, capacity, and OEE.

Drawing on her experience working with customers worldwide, Anna highlights that successful changeovers are often determined by preparation, coordination, and process readiness long before production changes over.

Machines, format parts, training, documentation, and service support all play a role in creating predictable processes and supporting a stable restart.

Ready for sensitive products such as sugar-based drops?

Our new video shows how the brush box feeder handles this product in the blister process.

What makes the setup practical:
🔹 Rotating brushes and agitators guide the products into the film pockets
🔹 Speed and distance can be adjusted to the required filling behavior
🔹 A small set of simple, product-specific format parts is needed
🔹 The feeder is integrated into the line HMI and designed for fast, GMP-compliant cleaning

Feeder selection remains product-specific. Product geometry, surface, sensitivity and blister design must be considered together.

For solid products that can be brushed into the pockets, the brush box feeder can be an economical, reliable and flexible option for different Uhlmann blister machines.

See the feeder in action in the video. Then read how product flow becomes an OEE topic in our focus article, linked in the first comment.

"A serial number is only the beginning."

This observation from Florian Wahler, Strategic Product Management at Uhlmann, reflects a challenge many pharmaceutical manufacturers face when managing Track & Trace systems over time.

A serial number confirms that an identifier exists. Reliable traceability depends on the architecture, processes, and governance behind it.

As Florian points out, several questions become critical when designing and maintaining a Track & Trace solution:
🔹 Where is master data created and governed?
🔹 How are access rights and changes controlled?
🔹 How are aggregation, rework, and rebooking managed?
🔹 Do line, site, and enterprise interfaces remain reliable?
🔹 Can batch status be reconstructed clearly at any point?

As software, interfaces, users, and regulatory requirements evolve, Track & Trace becomes more than a compliance topic. It also involves data integrity, validation, and long-term lifecycle management.

As Pac-Guides, we help customers look at the bigger picture. Reliable traceability depends on the interaction of systems, processes, data, and lifecycle requirements throughout the entire solution lifecycle.

3️⃣ successful factory acceptance tests.
3️⃣ satisfied new customers.
3️⃣ international colleagues.

And the machines? Of course, 3 BEC 300 blister lines!

This visit by the IFA Celtics team from Mexico was all about the lucky number 3. (Although we’d like to emphasize that the blister lines passed the factory acceptance test on the very first try.)

So, a triple thank you goes out to our customers Eduardo Meza, Felipe Pineda, and Patrick Smithers, as well as to our colleagues from Uhlmann Mexico, Luis Benitez, Roman Jimenez, and Manuel Hospach.

Following this threefold success, the efficient blister lines will be shipped to the IFA Celtics site in Jiutepec, where they will primarily package tablets in blisters and folding cartons.

Incidentally, each of the lines also consists of three components: a blister line, the Uhlmann Serialization Platform (USP), and a carton case packer.

Or as we say in Germany: All good things come in threes 👍👍👍
