Industrial washing and sterilizing system for ampoules and vials
Ensure the highest hygiene standards in your liquid formulations with this washing and sterilizing system, designed to efficiently cleanse and prepare ampoules and vials for critical applications such as injectable vaccines and nutrient solutions.

Washes and Sterilizes Ampoules and Vials
The WR Series from Marchesini Group offers an advanced rotary continuous motion solution for the internal and external washing and sterilizing of ampoules and vials. Specifically engineered for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical applications, these machines excel in maintaining sterility for products such as saline solutions, insulin vials, and injectable antibiotics. Featuring a high production capacity of up to 24,000 pieces per hour, the WR Series ensures reliable throughput with minimal human intervention.
Its operation utilizes integrated washing circuits, brushless drives, and fully adjustable washing parameters, allowing precise control over the washing sequence and needle centering. The water recirculation system enhances energy efficiency and minimizes resource usage. Constructed for durability, the WR Series includes mechanical drives shielded from fluid infiltration, promoting longevity and reduced maintenance needs. Compliance with stringent GMP standards guarantees compatibility with the most demanding pharmaceutical environments.
