Vial Filling and Stoppering Machine

Process Operation

The incoming dry vials (sterilized andsiliconized) are fed through the unscrambler and suitably guided on the movingdelrin slat conveyor belt at the required speed of the correct placement below filling unit.

The filling unit consists of Filling Head, Syringes & Nozzles; Syringes& Nozzles are made of AISI SS 316L materials. A Star Wheel is provided which holds the vial during filling operation. A sensor is provided for ''NoVial-No Filling'' operation. Syringes are mounted on eccentric block and driving through bottom main gear box. Volume can be increase & decrease byincreasing or decreasing stroke length of piston as per filling size. Syringesis having non return valve for sucking and delivering situation to avoid volumevariation. Liquid reaches to filling nozzles through silicon transparent pipe.Nozzles having up & down movement with help of cam mechanism and it comedown when vial hold by starwheel for filling operation and starts filling whenit starts to move up and after completion of filling operation, star wheel delivers two/four/eight vials together on conveyor for rubber stoppering operation.

Stoppering unit consist of Starwheel, Vibrator unit and Bowl. The sterilized and siliconised rubber stoppers stored in the vibrator bowl moves vertically tothe rubber stopper chute. The vial is hold firmly by star wheel, which will bein continuous rotary motion and vial which is coming from filling unit get into starwheel and move in rotary direction along with starwheel, during movementit picks up the rubber stopper from the exit end of the chute and rubber stopper pressed by fix single pressing roller, which is spring loaded. Thenvial further move on conveyor and collected on out feed star wheel for next sealing operation.
