Process Operation of Closed Ampoule Filling Machine

Closed mouth/pre sterilized ampoules loaded onto infeed hopper of the machine. From where it has been received to receiving rack through starwheel/cassette. The moving rack which moves horizontally collect one/two/four/eight ampoules from the receiving rack and transfer the ampoule to the machine in left to right in an inclined position. During ampoule movement Pre-gassing, Filling, Post Gassing, Pre-heating & Sealing Station perform filling and sealing operations. At the end duly filled and sealed ampoules get collected automatically onto collection tray of the machine.

FAQ of Closed Ampoule Filling and Sealing Machine

It is suitable for 1 ml to 10 ml glass ampoules, with some models filling up to 30 ml. Filling capacity ranges from 0.5 ml to 30 ml in a single dose operation, depending on the model.

Output depends on the number of heads:

  • Single head (AFS-1C): up to 25 ampoules/minute
  • Two head (AFS-2C): up to 50 ampoules/minute
  • Four head (AFS-4C): up to 100 ampoules/minute
  • Eight head (AFS-8C): up to 200 ampoules/minute Higher-output configurations can reach up to 12,000 ampoules per hour.

Common options include piston pump filling, servo-driven filling, and peristaltic pump filling. Standard models primarily use piston pumps, with filling precision of ±1%.

Key features include a compact cGMP design, all contact parts in SS 316L (non-contact in SS 304), “No Ampoule – No Filling” system, ampoule neck centering, nitrogen flushing before/during/after filling, pre-warming station, flow meters for flame regulation, minimum change-over parts (1–10 ml), easy accessibility for maintenance, and quick cleaning with low downtime.

Pre-sterilized closed ampoules are loaded into the infeed hopper and transferred via starwheel/cassette to a moving rack. The rack moves them in an inclined position while performing pre-gassing, filling, post-gassing, pre-heating, and sealing. Filled and sealed ampoules are then automatically collected on the tray.

Models include AFS-1C (1 head), AFS-2C (2 heads), AFS-4C (4 heads), and AFS-8C (8 heads). Differences cover number of syringes/nozzles, maximum ampoule size (up to 30 ml on smaller models, 20 ml on larger), speed, power requirement (0.5–2 HP), nitrogen nozzles, sealing burners, and overall dimensions.

Yes. Nitrogen gas flushing is possible before, during, and after filling. All listed models provide nitrogen arrangement before and after filling, with the number of nitrogen nozzles scaling with the number of heads (2 to 16).

Contact parts that touch sterile liquid are made from AISI SS 316L for cGMP compliance. Non-contact parts use Stainless Steel 304. The design emphasizes sterility, ease of cleaning, and minimum change-over for pharmaceutical injectable applications.

Power is typically 230 Volts, single phase, 50 Hz (adjustable to customer voltage). Burner gas uses LPG & Oxygen. Power ratings range from 0.5 HP (single head) to 2 HP (eight head). The machine includes flow meters for easy flame regulation.
