How It's Made

Pharmaceutical Blister Packs, Deli Slicers, Oysters, Weathervanes

Plastic film is heated and formed into individual cavities, filled with medication and sealed with foil to produce pharmaceutical blister packs. Stainless-steel blades, motors and adjustable carriages are assembled into deli slicers; oysters are cultivated, harvested and prepared for sale; and shaped metal ornaments are balanced on rotating mounts to make weathervanes.
