Herma and Norwalt launch 211RHC labeling cell

The new labeling cell features fully integrated servo gripper and performs up to 25 percent faster than comparable semi-automatic machines.

Herma has partnered with Norwalt Automation Group, an automation systems specialist to jointly develop the 211RHC labeling cell addressing the unique challenges of labeling small, irregularly shaped and non-stable products.

Designed with the pharmaceutical industry in mind, the 211RHC addresses the unique challenges of labeling small, irregularly shaped and non-stable products such as vials, pens, syringes and cartridges.

Herma said, that traditionally, these products have been labeled using semi-automatic machines like its 211 HC wrap-around labeler. However, the newly developed 211RHC significantly automates this process, enhancing both efficiency and precision, making it a pioneering product for small-batch pharmaceutical labeling.

The Herma 211RHC is the result of a collaboration with Norwalt Automation Group, combining Herma’s expertise in labeling technology with Norwalt’s advanced automation capabilities.

‘Partnering with Herma on the development of the 211RHC has been an incredible journey,’ said Mike Seitel, charman of Norwalt Automation Group. ‘By combining Herma’s exceptional labeling technology with Norwalt's automation expertise, we have created a solution that not only addresses the unique challenges of pharmaceutical labeling but also sets a new standard for efficiency and precision.’

‘We are thrilled to partner with Norwalt Automation Group and bring the 211RHC to market,’ added Gavin Purvis, director of sales and marketing at Herma. ‘This machine represents a significant step forward in pharmaceutical labeling, offering an automated solution that delivers unmatched accuracy and efficiency.’

Herma and Norwalt Automation Group will officially unveil the 211RHC labeling cell at PackExpo.
