Method for opening blister packs filled with components

摘要

In packs of this type, the glued-on covering paper has hitherto either been drawn off manually or been removed mechanically by means of suction grippers. Difficulties occur when the adhesive is resinified. According to the invention, the covering paper is notched and/or indented mechanically next to the adhesive bond and the exposed strips are subsequently removed. For this purpose, there is provided in the associated appliance at least one cutting knife which acts on the covering paper of the blister pack against a counterpressure bearing, the cutting edge of the knife and the blister pack being movable relative to one another. <IMAGE>
