Farmespaña Industrial 63. Machine for automatic processing of vials.

SX-210-PP

Filling and closing compact machine for automatic processing of vials.

The equipment we present is a compact filling and closing machine, for automatic processing of vials and bottles in glass, plastic, or metal, for liquid, semisolid, and powder products, in sterile areas or clean rooms. Filling from 0.1 ÷ 250 ml. Production speed: up to 6,000 units per hour.

The design has been made in accordance with the regulations of the cGMP and US FDA, in special accordance with the requirements of the pharmaceutical, biotech, cosmetic, chemical and similar industries. 

The filling station is equipped with a peristaltic pump, valveless rotary piston pump, or powder doser.

All production parameters can be saved in the PLC, through different recipes. The parameters are:

• Dosing volume.
• Programmable kinematics of the filling system.
• Adjustment of the automatic feeders.
• Output­­­­.

New recipes can be easily created and edited.

The pick & place station places the rubber stopper onto the vial fully or partially, depending on the application (injection rubber stopper or lyophilised rubber stopper). Stoppers are handled by vacuum.

The closing station is equipped with a pneumatic crimping head, characterised by the minimum generation of particles during the closing process.

All closures currently used can be easily handled, such as:

• Rubber stoppers.
• Aluminium caps / Flip-off caps.

For products that require lyophilisation, the following processes can be carried out in two separate machines:

• Filling and pre-positioning of rubber stoppers to lyophilise, in a sterile room application.
• Positioning of aluminium caps and closing of vials, in a clean room application.

Feeding of the closures can be carried out automatically by vibrating feeders, made of AISI-316L stainless steel.

The changeover to a different format is carried out quickly, easily and without tools, by exchanging complete sets of format parts. The adaptation to different containers heights is made through digital positioning gauge.

This equipment for injectables is suitable for clinical trials or medium production batches.

Optional equipment:

• Dosing control through micro scale and automatic recalibration of the volume to be dosed.
• Gas flushing before, during, or after the filling process.
• Tangential crimping head.
• Automatic rejection of defective vials.
• Data recording software to export the production data.
• Laminar flow unit / RABS / Isolator unit.
• IQ / OQ Validation package.
• Printing / Codification.
