Vial Processing
Diversity in vial processing is shown by a second line example, which comprises of a washing machine, sterilization tunnel and filler with 100% in-process control. The liquid pharmaceuticals can be purged with nitrogen from filling right up to completed stoppering.
A second operation mode allows for lyophilization stoppers to be placed, and the freeze drying process can be easily integrated. Returning from the freeze dryer, the vials re-enter the line in the opposite direction they exited, and are directed to the capping unit and tray loader. Vials sizes 2R to 20R can be processed on the line at output rates of up to 12,000 vials per hour.
