CPHI MILAN 2024 EXHIBITORS AT CPHI MILAN 2024 Steriline Booth A42 Hall 18 STERILINE UNVEILS NEW ROBOTIC VIAL FILLING MACHINE AT CPHI MILAN 2024 Steriline, a leading Italian manufacturer of highly specialised production equipment for the phar- maceutical industry, will be showcasing its latest innovation at CPHI Milan (8th– 10thOctober). The new Robotic Vial Filling & Capping Machine (RVF- CM11-S) will be displayed at the Steriline stand at CPHI (A42, Hall 18). This cutting-edge machine is poised to attract pharmaceutical professionals and companies eager to enhance production ef- ficiency and maintain compliance with stringent industry standards. RVFCM11-S: Enhancing Sterility and Efficiency The RVFCM11-S is an advanced robotic solution specifically designed for the primary packaging of cell and gene the- rapies. With an exceptionally compact footprint of 2.25m by 1.65m, the machine operates with nested 2R, 6R, 8R and 10R vials and can also be configured to fill Pre-filled Syringes (PFS) and cartridges.Equipped with a single filling head connected to an aseptic peristaltic pump, a single stoppering head, and a single capping head, the RVFCM11-S utilises two Stäubli Stericlean Robots for the discrete handling of primary containerswith zero glass-to-glass contact. The ma- chine features a double-wall isolator that minimises the risk of contamination and is integrated in the structure of the machine. The process begins with a manual de-bagger and a de-lidder station, followed by the loading of empty vial trays into the filling zone via a conveyor belt. The vials are then removed discretely by the use ofmagnetic levitation, presenting each vial to the robot arm. They then proceed to the filling station, wherean integrated check-weigh system (aligned with Steriline’s zero-loss philosophy) ensures precise filling. Once filled, the vials are moved to the capping station. In a seamless movement, the second robot arm handles capping and places the vials back into the nest. The capping process is monitored and controlled by machine vision, ensuring each filled vial is accurately sealed. Production Capacity and Storage Compliance. The RVFCM11-S boasts a production capacity of15 nested vials, syringes or cartridges per minute. Additionally, its design includes software-based tracking features to ensure that temperature-sensitive products do not exceed the time limit in the solution, preserving their pharmacological efficacy.
