Automatic tub opening and denesting module
Optimize sterile vial processing by efficiently opening and denesting tubs for seamless integration into high-speed pharmaceutical production lines.

Opens and Denests Pharmaceutical Tubs
The DDM 9105 from Bausch+Ströbel is a fully automatic module specifically designed for precision tub opening and denesting in pharmaceutical and biotech production environments. Utilizing a patented heating frame, the module efficiently loosens adhesive bonds, ensuring a particle-reduced process ideal for laminar flow environments. Capable of processing up to 60 tubs per hour, it caters to ready-to-use vials, nested containers, and liquid formulations, making it essential for manufacturing sterile injectable vials, pre-filled syringes, and vaccine vials. Seamlessly integrating with upstream and downstream processes, the DDM 9105 operates within a mobile, space-saving isolator system, enabling centralized control and optimal laminar airflow. Optional features like free-standing vacuum pumps and mobile collection bins enhance its versatility, while compliance with pharmaceutical standards guarantees reliability and safety in critical applications.
