Automatic vial loading and unloading systems for freeze dryers
Optimize your vial handling with automated loading and unloading systems that streamline freeze drying processes, ensuring precise aseptic operation and reducing contamination risks efficiently.
Loads and Unloads Vials with Precision
IMA Life’s Vial Fixed and Flexible Loading Systems are fully automated solutions designed to enhance aseptic processing by precisely loading and unloading vials in pharmaceutical and biotech production. These systems feature a frameless design, offering both fixed and flexible configurations to seamlessly integrate with industrial freeze-dryers, upstream filling lines, and downstream packaging equipment. They maintain a high throughput with loading speeds up to 600 vials per minute while ensuring compliance with VPHP (Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide) sanitation requirements and supporting cRABS and isolator applications. With a compact footprint, these systems are adaptable to various facility layouts, and their modular design provides cost-effective operation and reduced process times. These versatile loading systems play a critical role in the production of vaccines, lyophilized drug products, and injectable pharmaceuticals, meeting stringent industry standards.
