Packaging is the process of enclosing and protecting a product meant for sale. In the pharmaceutical industry, mechanization is very important as it greatly contributes to;

Realization of safe products,
Greater throughput is achieved
Accurate product Dispensation.

Washing, sealing and labelling machines are even more important where low quantities of products are dispensed. Important benefits of capping machines include;

Efficiency and effectiveness of the packing line is achieved
Ease of equipment maintenance
Hygiene and sanitation of the packing process is achieved.

Machines for Washing Ampoule, Vial & Bottles

Packaging machines in the pharmaceutical industry require special attention due to the nature of the product. Some of the preliquisites that must be satisfied include purity and sterility, and these are only achieved through use of the washing machines.

Some of the important capabilities of the machines are:

Mechanical design to ensure perfect drainage of the washings
Moving components are stationed completely separate from fluid flow to eliminate cross contamination

Lifting mechanism and all bottle handling movement fitted with special levers that minimize the risk of breakage, including those made from tube glass.

Capping Machines for Vials & Bottles

The containers move on an in feed conveyor, the cap is automatically fitted on to the bottle in line with the threads and positioned below the sealing head which automatically performs the sealing operation. They are constructed on sturdy stainless steel frames and storage vessels that allow fast and stable operation with no vibration during sealing. Efficiency is high and the machines achieve an output of up to 250 bottles per minute.

Some of the features placing these equipments above the rest are the use of the special geared motor on the drive, and the adjustable frequency drive for speed regulation.

The equipment’s have also been designed to handle easy and fast change over among different container sizes without loss of time in calibration.

Labelling Machines

Labelling is a crucial element in pharmaceutical production. The label application machinery must be able to handle all different sizes and types of products in production, and position the sticker to create a good image of the product.

Engineering Design

The labelling machine is made to automatically detect the package or bottle and dispense the label while ensuring accurate and tight placement of the label. These functions are coordinated using an inbuilt microprocessor able to run the equipment automatically.

Calibration

With the inbuilt micro processing ability, there is minimal waste of time during the changeover process as the sticker length and details are already programmed into the machine.

Various models available in the market include rotary ampoule sticker labelling machine, Horizontal and vertical sticker application machines, Flat bottle sticker application and the vertical vial sticker labelling machine. They are high performance equipment’s with some able to handle more than 200 vials per minute thus efficiency of operation is guaranteed.

The washing, capping and labelling equipment’s in pharmaceutical industry play a vital role in enhancing efficiency, maintaining sterile packages, neat and attractive packages and increased output. The available machines have advanced in technology with ability to handle up to 200 vials per minute and most manufacturing industries are gradually adopting the technology.
