Filling lines are used extensively in all industries, such as food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cosmetics, to accurately package different products into a container suitable for that product. Although the filling process is at the very end of the production line, it is no less important than the earlier steps. Last but not least, the idiom that dates back to 1382 when John Wyclif wrote the firste the laste, and the laste the firste, indicates just that the last things on a list are just as valuable as the previous ones. In this case, this idiom fits perfectly.

Biotech equipment is used for cellular and biomolecular processing to develop products that improve our lives and the planet. With the help of specialized lab equipment, the active substance is manufactured or extracted from biological origin materials and typically produced in bioreactors by plant cells, microbial cells, yeast cultures, or mammalian cells. Cell isolation, cultivation, cell banking, and culture expansion are called upstream processes. After harvest, the production process moves into a downstream process to meet purity and quality requirements which is divided into cell disruption, purification, and polishing. Biotechnology equipment makes use of various laboratory machinery such as bioreactors, centrifuges and incubators.

Biotech

Homogenization is the process of reducing particle size in mixtures to improve the consistency, uniformity, and stability of the product.

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The TFS-80 Series is officially the world's fastest tube filler, and yet it’s new weight checking and quality control system guarantees accuracy, reducing tube overfilling significantly. By using a clever modular design, workstations can be retrofitted with ease for maximum flexibility and future expansion, making development of new packaging or product types simple.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Because it operates with such high performance, the TFS-80 Series has been engineered for reliability and efficiency. Many traditional mechanical actions have been rendered obsolete by the use of servo technology throughout. State of the art bearings with central lubrication system allow for long service intervals, reducing maintenance costs. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">For greatly reduced downtime caused by product changes, fast exchange systems are employed. New motion parameters are automatically set via servo drives in case of product changes. The touch screen panel HMI makes these operations quick and easy, as well as allowing simple monitoring of the machine in use. Internet access allows remote diagnostics, further reducing any downtime.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite the high performance of the TFS-80 Series, it’s been designed to occupy as compact a form-factor as possible, providing maximum flexibility when it comes to your own installation.</span>

High speed automatic tube filler

<span style="font-weight: 400;">High performance tube-filling machines are used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Their performance is greatly enhanced by the use of automated feed-in systems, delivery the empty tubes accurately and quickly to maximise the efficiency of the filler. Loading systems are available in a variety of formats, including the flexible cassette type.</span>


<h2>Feed cylindrical tubes via a cassette</h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Ensuring a constant supply of appropriately orientated empty tubes, the IWK TZM Cassette Tube Feeding Magazine is suitable to supply machines operating at up to 120 tubes per minute.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The TZM allows for uninterrupted operation because it holds tubes in a reservoir between the tube filler and tube feeding magazine. Tubes in the reservoir are processed first, meaning restocking the filler will not impact on the operation. A photo-electric backup sensor monitors</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">the tubes in the reservoir ensuring it does not run empty.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The TZM aligns tubes into singles by using pneumatic baffle plate movements in the magazine and the reservoir area. Individual tubes are picked up at the far end of the tube filler chute and loaded in the tube filling machine.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Suitable for use with laminar flow, the TZM gently handles tubes, minimising damage to fragile materials. The TZM is able to handle all commercially available tube materials, and operates with tubes of diameter 13.5 mm to 40 mm, and length 60 mm to 230 mm.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Size changeovers are very quick to minimise downtime and don’t require the use of any tools.</span>

Loading cassette for a tube filler

Conveyor systems are used for moving materials from one location to another. Considerations for choosing a suitable industrial conveying system include the nature of the product, its physical state, the desired conveying rate, and sensitivity of the product to heat and mechanical shock. Conveying equipment is used in the food, pharmaceutical, chemical, biomass, and mineral industries to move materials around a warehouse as well as to transport bulk powders, granules, and grains for processing and filling. These types of systems are usually automated and there is a wide variety of solutions to choose when it comes to the type of conveyor. Types include screw, gravity, chain, roller and belt conveyors.
