Urania Engineering proudly announces an exciting new packaging system

Accurately named the "PACKAGING ANSWER", our system meets the exacting demands of modern packaging, accommodating virtually all pouch types and configurations.

Pouches
loaded 'on the fly'

To guarantee optimal cycle rates and minimize operator involvement, Urania has developed a safe and effective method of replenishing the pouch magazine without interrupting the process cycle.

Pouch
Edge Detection

Using a laser sensor, the Packaging Answer automatically detects and locates the top edge of each pouch as it is removed from the magazine.

Ink Jet
Printing & Labeling

The Packaging Answer can label or ink-jet print on one or opposite sides of the supplied pouch as required by customer needs.

Pouch
Loading and Sealing

The Packaging Answer can be integrated to an existing Weigh/Dump unit, operated via manual operator loading, or designed to accommodate a customer's current product delivery system.

Servo
Controlled Adjustments

By using individual servo systems in each critical positioning step of the process, the Packaging Answer adjusts digitally instead of mechanically.

The Urania Engineering PouchPro System

The PouchPro pouch handling system from Urania Engineering is designed for end-users whose packaging requirements are simpler and have less variation.

Pouch
Magazine

The pouch magazine of the PouchPro system is designed to easily accommodate most flat type pouches regardless of size or material.

Four Position
Indexer

A four-position indexer is used to cycle each pouch through 90 degrees of rotation per cycle.

Ink Jet
Printing & Labeling

All PouchPro systems can easily accommodate a peripheral labeling or printing system.

Pouch
Loading and Sealing

Loading operations on PouchPro systems can be as simple as an operator dropping an item into an open pouch, or as complex as automatically loading a medical device and desiccant simultaneously from an infeed system.

Model 5000P Plus Heat Sealer for UDI Compliance

In compliance with the new UDI mandate for medical devices, our Model 5000P Plus system introduces GS1 Datamatrix printing and a Keyence 2D Code Reader to our existing Allen Bradley controlled rotary band heat sealer.

About Urania Engineering

With more than 40 years of engineering experience, Urania Engineering has emerged as a leading manufacturer of pre-formed pouch handling and Validatable Heat Sealing equipment.

Our PouchPro ® and Packaging Answer® systems are designed to make all facets of pouch handling and heat sealing simple, yet efficient. Most varieties of pre-made pouch materials and configurations can be facilitated on our systems. Innovative technology and our modular approach to machine design makes Urania the first choice for all of today's evolving industries.

Our in-house approach to operation keeps all manufactured parts at our facility from the design stage, through machining, and inspection.  We only outsource sheetmetal and plating operations to local facilities in the USA.  Commercial components come from the most familiar names in industry.    

We rely on the latest technologies from today's leading CAD software providers. Both 2D plan drawings and 3D solid models are created using AutoCAD® and SolidWorks® environments. 

Our electrical engineering and programming department utilizes cutting-edge Allen Bradley® controllers and servo systems to maximize the functionality and expandability of all our equipment.

All Urania pouch handling and sealing systems include a customer specific documentation package with instructional sections to guide operators through all phases of machine operation from setup to scheduled maintenance.

In addition to providing thorough printed documentation, Urania can also provide its customers with digital instruction and maintenance videos specific to their application. These videos can be supplied on flash drive (or e-mailed) for play on any PC. Since all production work is done by our staff, these customized tools can be delivered in hours... when you need them.

Many of our systems have built-in Ethernet connectivity for remote access.  Simply plug your machine into an open internet connection and our staff can update software, troubleshoot problems, or even run the machine from our facility in Northeast PA.  Many expensive service trips can be replaced by a phone call and our remote access system.
