Description
Onion Skin Ampoule Filling Machine built on principle of slant travel of ampoules while filling and sealing, to take care of vide variation of ampoule neck dimensions & thicknesses of available standard ampoules.
The Filling unit built on Stainless Steel Square pipe frame and totally encompassed with Stainless Steel coverings, in pleasing matt finish. Further, the large opening available at the bottom side for ease of absolute cleaning.
The pendant type electrical control panel is lifted from machine for ease of operation and safety.
Salient Features of Onion Skin Ampoule Filling Machine
Process Operation of Onion Skin Ampoule Filling Machine
The sterilized ampoule tray directly loaded in to slant hopper of the unit. The Synchronized star wheel delivers ampoules, one by one on moving eccentric ampoule rack in single.
During the stoppage of rack sequentially pre-gassing, filling, post gassing, pre heating and final sealing is achieved.

FAQ of Onion Skin Ampoule Filling Machine
What are the key salient features of this machine?
Key features include a compact design, “No Ampoule – No Filling” system, ampoule neck centering during gas flushing and filling, nitrogen gas flushing before/during/after filling, pre-warming station, full accessibility for easy maintenance, and minimum changeover time. All contact parts are made from high-quality Stainless Steel 316L.
How does the Onion Skin Ampoule Filling Machine work?
Sterilized ampoules are loaded into the slant hopper. A synchronized star wheel delivers them one by one onto a moving eccentric ampoule rack. During rack stoppages, the machine performs pre-gassing, filling, post-gassing, pre-heating, and final sealing sequentially.
What ampoule sizes and filling speeds are supported?
The machine supports ampoules from 1 ml to 30 ml (depending on the model).
- AFS-1: Up to 25 ampoules/minute
- AFS-2: Up to 50 ampoules/minute
- AFS-4: Up to 100 ampoules/minute
- AFS-8: Up to 200 ampoules/minute
What models are available and how do they differ?
Adinath offers four models: AFS-1 (Single Head), AFS-2 (Two Head), AFS-4 (Four Head), and AFS-8 (Eight Head). They differ mainly in the number of heads, syringes, nozzles, filling speed, and overall dimensions.
What materials are used in the construction?
All product contact parts are made from Stainless Steel 316L. Non-contact parts use Stainless Steel 304. The machine features a Stainless Steel square pipe frame with matt finish coverings and easy-cleaning access from the bottom.
Does the machine support nitrogen gas flushing?
Yes. It allows nitrogen gas flushing before, during, and after filling to protect sensitive liquids. It also includes dedicated nitrogen nozzles (2 to 16 depending on the model).
What are the power and utility requirements?
The machine requires 230 Volts, Single Phase, 50 Hertz, 4 Wire System (adjustable for local voltage). Power ranges from 0.5 H.P. (AFS-1) to 2 H.P. (AFS-8). It uses LPG & Oxygen (O₂) for sealing burners.
How easy is maintenance and changeover?
The machine is designed for easy maintenance with full accessibility, a pendant-type control panel for safety, large bottom openings for cleaning, and minimum changeover time. It requires little maintenance overall.
What is the filling accuracy and pump type?
