High speed powder dosing and stoppering for antibiotics
Address the threat of antibiotic-resistant bacteria with precision dosing technology that ensures consistent and efficient vial filling, ideal for next-generation antibiotic production.

Doses, Stoppers, and Weighs Pharmaceutical Powders
The XTREMA PWD from IMA Life is a high-speed solution engineered specifically for precise dosing and stoppering of pharmaceutical powders. This machine incorporates a well-consolidated vacuum-pressure filling system with a positive intermittent in-line vial transport system, allowing for the dosing of up to three different powders into a single vial. Its small footprint and high automation level ensure efficient operation within stringent pharmaceutical and biotech environments. Handling up to 400 vials per minute, this machine offers 100% in-process control (IPC) for each vial, ensuring maximum product integrity. The XTREMA PWD is equipped with a continuous stoppering unit and recirculating laminar air flow (LAF) for controlled temperature and humidity, essential for maintaining sterile production conditions. Its cRABS (closed restricted access barrier system) provides robust powder containment with a slim design. This equipment is compliant with GMP standards and includes advanced powder handling facilities, offering customization options to meet specific production needs.
