Liquid Dosage Forms Filling Equipment

After being used to contain the blood of martyrs after death or to store the anointing oil of French monarchs, today ampoules are the first choice in packaging injectables. You create ampoules by melting the glass tube into the desired shape and seal them at the neck by melting the top of the glass tube. The only way for you to extract the contents from an ampoule is by breaking the glass at its breaking point, making it perfect for single dose applications only.

Ampoules

Your earliest memory of medicine is probably a jar of cough syrup with a plastic dosing spoon attached. Although widely produced as remedies for children, medicated syrups are also available for adults. Making cough syrup starts by dissolving active ingredients into a purified water and sugar solution. But it is the distinct flavorings and colorants that persist in people’s minds long after the illness is cured.

Cough syrup

The body produces earwax to protect the ear canal from microbial growth. But no one wants too much protection of this kind. Thankfully, simple solutions are available over the counter to medicate excess cerumen. Besides wax removal, eardrops and OTIC manufacturing provides an effective delivery technique to treat infections or administer anesthetic.

Eardrops

Eyedrops processing is quite literally a sight for sore eyes. There is no shortage of eye care products, from eyewashes to anesthetics to antibiotics. But formulating eyedrops is a complex affair with multiple safety checkpoints. Technological advances bring a pair of fresh eyes to manufacturing, ensuring higher-quality products for specialized applications.

Eyedrops

Insulin is a hormone that controls blood glucose levels produced by the beta cells in the pancreas. As a medication, insulin was discovered by Frederick Banting and Charles Best in 1921, for which Banting was awarded a Nobel Prize in 1923. The insulin production process involves manipulating the biological precursor to insulin and cultivating it inside bacteria using specialized technology.

Insulin

Smelling is said to be the most underrated sense. But a congested nose quickly reminds us why it is important. Besides the loss of the olfactory function, nasal blockage leads to a dangerous buildup of pathogens in the airways. Nasal spray formulation is the science of mixing drugs and excipients to free your nasal passage. A few spritzes of the right recipe will bring back the scents of life.

Nasal spray

The word parenteral comes from Greek and means outside the intestine (para=outside and enteron=intestine). In fact, when it comes to parenterals, we are referring to those dosage forms that are administered directly into the bloodstream using a hypodermic needle, avoiding going through the gastrointestinal tract. Using parenteral filling equipment, parenteral solutions are placed in containers such as vials, syringes, or ampoules.

Parenterals

Pharmaceutical cartridges are glass containers of cylindrical shape, suitable for liquid or solid pharmaceutical dosage forms. Generally, these are designed for a specific apparatus such as pre-filled syringes and autoinjectors. Drugs that can be placed in cartridges using a pharmaceutical cartridge filling equipment include insulin, dental anesthesia, and other emergency drugs for allergies.

Pharmaceutical cartridges

Softgel capsules fast-track the delivery of medication to the bloodstream. Unlike solid pills, they do not need to be broken down by the body before the drugs can be absorbed. Moreover, they are optimal vehicles for oils and fat-soluble formulations that cannot be compressed into tablets.

Softgel capsules

Some of the vaccines in use today were originally developed decades ago. But advances in research, expertise and vaccine development equipment provide immunizations from bacterial and viral diseases (antibodies and cell therapy) to more people every year. The Covid 19 pandemic highlights the urgent need to scale up the production of vaccines and ensure an automated as well as reproducible manufacturing environment.

Vaccines

During crime scene investigations in any movie, you've probably seen forensic scientists collecting evidence and biological samples in small containers. Here, these are the vials, used to store medicines, especially in liquid form, or laboratory samples. Often made of glass or plastic, vials can be labeled as single-dose vials or sterilized and reused more than once. They are also available with various closure systems depending on the material and storage requirements.

Vials

If you've ever heard the acronym WFI spoken, know that we're not talking about wireless technology to connect your computer. WFI stands for water for injection, a sterile water used as a solvent to dilute other solutions for injections to the body. Traditionally, WFI was only produced through the distillation process using water for injection equipment until other methods such as reverse osmosis, electrodeionization, and ultrafiltration were developed.

Aseptic filling equipment is crucial for sensitive products, as they need to be filled into their primary packaging in an environment free from contamination caused by harmful bacteria, viruses, or other microorganisms. Choosing an aseptic filling solution requires consideration of the physical form of the product, the type of primary packaging, the volume to be dosed per package, and the production speed. Aseptic fillers are widely used for cleaning, filling, and sealing pre-sterilized vials, cartridges, ampoules, and syringes in the pharmaceutical industry. Aseptic filling is also used in the food industry to process for example, dairy products that need harmful bacteria's minimized, or ensure shelf-stable products that do not require refrigeration. In these industries, aseptic equipment is integrated into the production line for maximum isolation and sterilization. And, can either be configured as an automated or manual process, depending on standards that the products require.

Filling lines

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.

Liquid

<p class="filterable-grid__description">Liquid dosage forms are designed for easy absorption. The body quickly carries the active ingredients through the system and triggers the required response. But the greatest advantage of this medicinal type is its flexibility in formulation and dispensation. From lotions and syrups to drops and sprays, liquid solutions can be adapted to different administration routes including parenteral, topical, and oral. The fundamental liquid dosage manufacturing process involves dissolving or suspending solutes in a fluid. But that is not enough. A precise blend of excipients is needed to make the medicine go down.</p>

Liquid dosage forms

Pharmaceutical developments walk side by side with health advances to provide new medicines, treatments, and therapies that have increased life quality and extended life expectancy by years. Pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment helps deliver products to a great deal of the population, but there’s a significant share that doesn’t benefit from them yet. Over 2 billion people cannot get the medicines they need, according to the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, and local production might be a way to provide for these people.

When looking for capping equipment, it is crucial to know first which type of capper your product requires. Do you want screw caps, twist-off caps, hand pumps, or push-pull caps on your bottle or container? If you require different cap types for format changeover times can be time-consuming. The bottle cap seals the top opening of a bottle to guard the product against leakage and spoilage and sterility and filling requirements depend on the nature of your product.

Capping

The essential objectives of containment systems are personnel protection and preventing the release of toxic or infectious material into the environment. Containment is also used to prevent a product or sample from contamination by the external environment. In the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, containment solutions are used to protect the personnel from the leaking of airborne particles of hazardous substances, as powders or liquids are handled or transferred during processing.

Containment

Dosing systems are a line of hoppers, feeders, filling machines, and checkweighers that operate in sync to dispense materials accurately. Dosing is an essential feature of the packaging process, whether you’re filling shampoo bottles or tea bags. But dosing equipment is critical for formulations, too, particularly in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Imprecise dosing may cause quality degradation in the best-case scenario. In the worst scenario, it creates serious health risks.

Dosing

Almost all manufacturers will require industrial storage systems and solutions at some point during their production process. The raw materials that go into your products need dedicated storage solutions to protect them from spoilage and contamination before they enter the manufacturing cycle. Storage usually refers to particular storage space. For example, having enough warehouse storage. Or clearing out a production facility for more floor space.  However, in this case, we are referring to the equipment and solutions that make storage manageable and easier. Such equipment includes solutions such as storage racks, pallet racks and shelving systems. These are just some of many storage options available to manufacturers. Advanced technology facilitates the management of heavy duty and high density tank and silo systems by automating the delivery system and linking it with the rest of the production line.

The two-piece capsule is a visual shorthand for all types of medical remedies. Advances in technology have made the production of hard-gelatin capsules a convenient delivery method for drugs and other ingested substances. But the simple solution requires micrometric precision to be manufactured to the proper pharmaceutical standards.

Hard gelatin capsules

The two halves of a capsule shell are separately filled with your selected material before they are then pressed against one another and closed. Automatic capsule fillers orientate the shells in the precise position, fill them with your specified formula a join the ends. Capsules are then de-dusted and polished by micro brushes before they are ready for packaging.

Capsule fillers

Form, fill, and seal machines complete the packaging, filling, and sealing in one continuous process and eliminate the need for three separate machines. Most form, fill and seal systems use flexible films to form the primary package. Vertical machines are simpler and faster whereas horizontal systems are better suited to the packaging of solid products that do not flow well. Form, fill, and seal machines are widely used in the food industry for packaging snack foods, powdered products, liquids, and pastes and in the pharmaceutical industry for the production of IV bags, powder sachets, and stick packs.

Form fill sealing equipment

Cooking liquid and semi-solid foods like jams and sauces is a time-intensive process. Sealed thermal cookers speed up the step by cooking in a vacuum or under pressure. Besides greater time efficiency, vacuum cooker technology retains nutritional properties, texture, and flavors. The choice of a suitable thermal vacuum cooker depends on the batch size, cooking temperatures, and vacuum/pressure requirements. These parameters vary on the recipe and product type. One of the main considerations when selecting vacuum cooking technology is the cleaning process following use. An easy and quick cleaning system reduces downtime and maximizes on-site operations.

Vacuum cookers

The most important part of a capsule is its contents. But if the shell is not carefully made, the dosage ingredients inside lose effectiveness. From molding to sizing, capsule manufacturing equipment forms perfectly-matching husks ready for filling. The simplicity of encapsulation revolutionized pharmaceuticals since it was introduced in the 19<sup>th</sup> century. However, capsules are changing to increase delivery efficiency and reduce the dependency on gelatin.

The building blocks of matter have driven the imagination of philosophers, scientists, and artists for millennia. But, for manufacturers, these elements have a more concrete existence as powders. Powder processing technology conditions these primary materials to create a vast range of products, from chemicals and foods to pharmaceuticals and ceramics.

Powder

Industrial

Industrial sterilization processes are employed in different industries to completely eliminate all living microorganisms from the final product. For instance, in food processing, sterilization equipment is used to produce a stable product with a long shelf-life by eradicating harmful bio-contaminants. Instead, in the medical field, sterilization technologies aim to prevent the transmission of microbes to patients by sterilizing all the tools and medical devices that come in contact with the patient. Most sterilization equipment, such as autoclaves, employs high-temperature pressurized steam to destroy bacteria and disinfect surfaces from spores. Other methods include radiation sterilization or using chemicals such as hydrogen peroxide for disinfection.

Sterilization

Industrial washing systems are used to clean and disinfect a variety of items in research and manufacturing facilities. Industrial washers use solvents and cleaning agents with mechanical action to remove deposits and residues from stainless steel machinery components, empty containers, and other soiled surfaces. The selection of an industrial or commercial washer depends on the type of items and surfaces to be cleaned, the type of deposits/residue that is typically present, whether drying is required after rinsing and the level of sterilization necessary. Manufacturers will have cleaning specifications and as a result, require washers to be engineered to meet these specs.

Bottle capping solutions

Bottle filling equipment entails transferring your products to a bottle which involves inspecting the material, and then conveyors feed it into the machine which then pours it into the vessels using volumetric technology and nozzles before capping them. Bottle filing varies not only in product type but in the size, shape, and material of the container too. Depending on your operation, filling systems may adopt in-line or rotary methods before transferring the bottles to the next stage of processing.

A belt conveyor system uses pulleys or drums to keep an endless loop of conveying belts in continuous motion for material handling. Considerations for choosing a suitable conveyor belt system include the physical form of the product, processing requirements, and the desired speed and volume of transportation. Belt conveying systems find numerous applications in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries such as filling and packaging operations. In the biomass industry, these systems are used for moving biomass feedstock to the boiler. In the mineral industry, conveying belts process and transport granular and crushed minerals. Conveyor belts are heavy-duty machinery that is used to move materials from one place to another. They are commonly used in factories, warehouses, and other industrial settings to move items such as boxes, containers, and other materials along a production line.

A beverage is any kind of liquid or drink, usually other than water, made for human consumption. Beverages are further classified into two categories: alcoholic beverages and non-alcoholic beverages. Alcoholic beverages refer to liquids that contain 1% to 75% of liquor and are produced by fermentation such as wine, beer, or distillation such as vodka, rum, tequila. Non-alcoholic beverages are drinks that don’t have any liquor such as tea, coffee, fruit juices, soft drinks, and carbonated beverages. They can be produced premix or postmix, depending on the setup of your production line.
