LODHA Single Wheel Injectable Vial Powder Filling & Rubber Stoppering Machine

Automatic Injectable Powder Filling with Rubber Stoppering Machine is suitable for Round Vials with maximum speed of 120 or 250 Vials per minute depending on various option of Filling Head and Powder Wheel System explain below.

Machine available in various combination of Filling Head and Powder Wheel to achieve Higher Speed and/or Higher Fill Volume required by customer. Machine available in Single Filling Head Twin Track Single Powder Wheel System, Twin Filling Head Single Track Single Powder Wheel System, Twin Filling Head Twin Track Single Powder Wheel System, Twin Filling Head Twin Track Twin Powder Wheel System for optimum speed and fill volume requirement of customers.

Specially Machine construction in fully Stainless-Steel finish including machine frame structure. Machine with built-in Turn Tables at In-feed and Out-feed with individual drives to match the speed of incoming and outgoing vials for smoother operation. All parts coming in contact with Powders are made from Ss316 Materials. The Machine works on Vacuum and Air Systems to Fill powder in Vials, with on-line Vibrator type Rubber Stoppering system, the stopper inserting system operates in a continues mode with synchronized speed of machine.

Special Features:

No Vial – No Fill System All contact parts made of SS316 material with easy removal system for Autoclaving/Sterilization Machine construction in SS304 material Separate Variable Speed Drive for Powder Hopper No Crossover Contamination during Charging of Powder due to new Design of Powder Hopper Hopper can be completely dismantling for easy cleaning Minimum residue of Powder in Hopper at the end of batch resulting in less wastage of powder Tool Less adjustment of Doctor Blade and Wiper Blade saves valuable time and easy for setting Tool Less change over for Powder Hopper and Well Agitator Filling Accuracy of +/- 1% depending on powder at controlled humidity below 30% Rh Built in Rubber Stoppering System Multiple dosing system with the help of change parts Built in Turn Tables with Separate Drive for speed control of infeed and outfeed of vials Various safety features including Clutch system for Vial Breakage Machine Bottom with all over minimum clearance of 6” Height Moving conveyor above the top plate maintaining proper gap for meeting current application needs. Automatic Infeed and Exit of Vials Powder Hopper for charging with better position and design without crossing the line. No Stopper – Machine Stop System Low Air – Machine Stop System Low Vacuum – Machine Stop System Heavy Duty mounting system for Powder Wheel for Trouble-Free long-term operation

Process Operation:

The sterilized powder is stored in powder hopper is agitated by pair of mechanical agitators for maintaining consistency and uniform bulk density. The powder wheel having eight ports rotates at the pre-determined speed below the powder hopper with practically no clearance. Powder wheel consist of Piston in each port and behind the powder wheel vacuum plate is provided there is no clearance between powder wheel and vacuum plate due to back spring pressure. Precise volume of powder is sucked in to the port of powder wheel during vacuum according to the piston length different fill size can be achieved. The excess powder is doctored off by a doctor blade. Doctor blades can be adjusted from outside also without removing powder hopper. When powder wheel indexes further and remain in the port due to the vacuum till it reaches just vertically above the container. The time dose of Compressed air (Nitrogen Gas), sterilized low pressure air sequentially flushes out powder from the port of powder wheel in to the container one by one. The filled containers are immediately separated on the conveyor by vial separator and moves further for stoppering operation. (Different grooves separator can be used which depends on the container diameter or multiple dosing systems). The sterilized, siliconized, rubber stoppers stored in the vibrator bowl moves to vibratory bowl and stacked vertically in the rubber stopper chute. The container is hold firmly between pair or timing belt to pick up rubber stopper from exit end of the chute. Further the container is passed between two pressing rollers for tight fit fixing of rubber stopper.
