Fully Automatic Filling and Closing Machine Makes Light Work of Single Dose Syringes

The PLC-controlled syringe filling and closing machine SFM 5072 has been developed for industrial high-capacity use for the processing of single dose syringes in so-called nests. The syringe barrels are supplied in theses nests inside tubs and are sterile and ready to fill. All the subsequent transport and work steps are carried out fully automatically and the machine achieves an output of up to 60,000 syringes per hour.

The nest transport in the work area is carried out by two coordinate tables controlled by servomotors that are in use alternately, thus preventing loss of production time between one nest and the next.

The dosing unit comprises 16 valveless rotary piston pumps. Alternatively, other dosing systems such as time/pressure filling are available.

Simple size changeover without tools is possible by exchanging complete size part sets and selecting the new size at the operating panel.
