Rotary washing system for pharmaceutical containers
Achieve superior cleanliness and efficiency with a high-speed rotary washing system designed for sterilizing sensitive containers like vials and ampoules before aseptic fill-finish packaging.

Washes and Handles Pharmaceutical Containers
The Type 302 from BAUSCH Advanced Technology Group is a rotary container washing machine designed to elevate the standards of cleaning efficiency in pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, and biotech sectors. It addresses the need for precise and reliable washing processes by utilizing a high-speed rotary mechanism that efficiently handles bottles, vials, ampoules, and cartridges.
Capable of washing up to 24,000 containers per hour, the Type 302 is ideal for demanding environments requiring aseptic fill-finish operations. The machine’s smooth container handling is ensured by specialized coated grippers, while optional ultrasonic baths enhance cleaning effectiveness. Water heating up to 85°C is available for processes demanding stringent sanitation standards.
Designed for seamless integration into existing production lines, the Type 302 can infeed containers both from trays or directly from an upstream machine, facilitating effortless transitions between multiple production stages. Its robust construction offers material options compatible with pharmaceutical-grade operations, ensuring compliance with industry regulations such as GMP.
The Type 302’s user-centric design includes PLC control systems, supporting automation and enabling remote operation monitoring. This minimizes downtime and ensures consistent high performance across various cleaning cycles, while optional CIP systems further simplify maintenance routines and enhance operational efficiency.
