Weiler
According to Weiler Engineering, its corporate focus is to provide the most advanced aseptic liquid processing technology available through the application of customised Asep-Tech blow-fill-seal (BFS) machinery and integrated services. Asep-Tech BFS machines are designed and manufactured in the US, at a 13,006 m2, state-of-the-art manufacturing plant located near Chicago, Illinois.
The Weiler design incorporates the three-step process of blow moulding, aseptic filling and hermetic sealing of liquid products in one sequential operation on a compact machine frame. The entire Asep-Tech product line is optimised for sterile production of liquid pharmaceuticals.
The Asep-Tech Model 628 BFS machine has the flexibility to produce sterile, liquid filled, tamper-evident containers ranging in size from 0.5 to 500 ml, in full-scale production quantities. It comes complete with an integral product buffer tank and all digital controls, designed to meet tight fill tolerances.
The versatile Model 628 features a two-piece stepped base design for easy maintenance and convenient product discharge. The design allows quick, efficient tooling changeovers for multiple container formats. Additionally, all existing Model 624 tooling (moulds, fill systems and parison heads) can be used on the Model 628 machine, making it an attractive upgrade for current users.
An all-electric model is available, reportedly offering the ultimate in green processing, minimising the carbon footprint and enhancing the quality of the processing environment through highly reduced particulate generation. The all-electric option is ideal for injectable and heat sensitive applications.
Additional machine models are offered to fulfill higher output and/or larger container size requirements.
