Containment capsule filler for highly potent drugs
Achieve complete operator safety while encapsulating potent pharmaceutical formulations with advanced containment features, ensuring secure production for high-value drugs.

Fills and Contains Highly Potent Capsules
The SECUREFILL 40T from ACG is a high-containment capsule filling machine that excels in processing highly potent active pharmaceutical ingredients (HPAPIs). This unit is specifically designed for the pharmaceutical and biotech industries, providing safe and efficient encapsulation for oncological, hormonal, and antiviral formulations. Its monoblock structure, constructed from SS316L, includes HEPA filters and glove ports, ensuring a negative pressure environment to fully contain substances within an occupational exposure limit of 1-10 µg/m³. The SECUREFILL 40T facilitates medium to large-scale batch production, achieving rates of up to 40,000 capsules per hour. It supports various filling options including pellets, tablets, micro-tablets, and soft gels. Integrated with check-weighers, metal detectors, and de-dusters, it ensures smooth operation within containment conditions. The wet-in-place cleaning system effectively neutralizes formulation residues, aiding easy maintenance and operator safety. Certified up to OEB level 4, this machine complies with stringent safety standards, making it ideal for producing critical drugs like lenalidomide and testosterone replacement tablets.
