AST’s Container Filling System (CFS) is a bench-top, semi-automatic machine used for the filling of pre-filled syringes and cartridges, and the filling and stoppering of vials and bottles. The system is designed to meet the demanding requirements for small batch processing of sterile injectable products.
The Container Filling System was designed with cGMP in mind. Its compact, aseptic design provides complete compatibility with cleanrooms, bio-safety cabinets, laminar airflow hoods, and aseptic isolator environments.
The system’s versatility, features, and compact size make it ideally suited for labs and cGMP small batch filling applications.
Consistent & Accurate Container Filling
The Container Filling System is integrated with advanced system features to provide consistent and accurate product dispensing. The system is integrated with a peristaltic pump that provides accurate dispensing with minimal product shear. When integrated with a weight scale the system can fill the container to measure the dispensed material in real-time, and provide automatic adjustment to the pump. The system’s electronically controlled axis inserts the filling needle to the container and slowly lifts to minimize shear, foaming or product agitation. For applications where a peristaltic pump is not ideal, such as dispensing viscous materials, the system can be configured with a rotary piston pump.
