Vial filling machines and processing solutions

One of the major challenges for IMA Life is to implement the latest technologies in aseptic vial filling, whilst ensuring compliance with the highest cGMP’s standards in filling accuracy.
From the decontamination of containers, through depyrogenation, up to liquid vial filling or powder vial filling, closing and capping operations, all our efforts are targeted to avoid any possible contamination risk while delivering the highest performance.
The very compact and versatile design of IMA Life injectable vial filling machines, allows for suitable integration under isolator or different containment solutions without changing the basic machine configuration and minimising human intervention in the processing area.
The external washers complete the range of vial filling line and fit the market’s increasing demand for decontamination solutions to remove product particles from the outside of vials.

  1. Washing and Depyrogenating

    1. Washing and Depyrogenating
    The decontamination technology is a crucial path in drug processing lines, that is why container washing before and after the filling phase is so important.
    Over 50 years of experience in the production of equipment for vial washing combined with constant commitment to innovation, make IMA Life a world leader in the field. The equipment range comes complete with the external vial washers which respond to the increasing demand of filled and capped vial decontamination.
    The depyrogenating tunnels installed after the vial washing machines are designed to satisfy any production requirement and are suitable for any kind of application: they come both in the standard and in the dry heat sterilisation version, and can be easily integrated into lines designed to handle high-toxic compounds and/or in lines with isolators.

  2. Aseptic Filling and Stoppering

    IMA Life machines for aseptic filling are distinguished by their rigorous detail design and are the result of careful research in fluid dynamics, to guarantee maximum product protection of all aseptic filling environments (such as traditional clean rooms, isolation technology or other containment solutions).
    Compact and ergonomic design ensures great flexibility for all types of layout. Statistical and 100% IPC control of filled weight along with very advanced CIP/SIP units allow the machines to reach a very high standard in product quality. Aseptic processing of vials is certainly one of the most critical activities in primary drug packaging. 

  3. Capping

    The primary purpose of vial capping is to secure the closure in place, ensuring the integrity of the pharmaceutical product. Capping also serves to provide a tamper-evident seal, assuring end-users that the product has not been opened or compromised. This process can be performed under controlled and sterile conditions, either downstream or by direct integration in the machine frame as a module.
    IMA Life vial capping machines feature a broad range of application capabilities: from traditional aluminium caps, with or without flip-off, to the most sophisticated caps such as add-vantage, bio-set and monovial closures.

  4. Labelling

    The IMA Life production range includes a vast array of vial labelling machines, which can be supplied in stand-alone version or as an integral part of complete packaging lines.
    The Sensitive and Sensitive Roto series of vial labellers can apply any kind of self-adhesive labels (wrap-around, front, rear or both sides) and, thanks to the configuration flexibility of the operative groups, can fit overprinting devices and camera vision systems to read and check data.
    These machines feature different solutions to align the packaging of pharmaceutical products to emerging requirements in terms of Track & Trace of the final products.
