Pure performance, clean containers
Vega 400 is a rotary external washer designed to decontaminate the external surface of ampoules and small glass vials after the filling and closing process. In the face of the pharmaceutical industry and safety regulators who are placing more importance on external washers to remove product particles from the outside of containers after filling, Vega 400 complies with the present requirement and ensures complete decontamination.
The decontamination process can be carried out using water or by adding a dedicated washing media to the water in case of toxic products, in order to avoid any risk of contamination. Vega 400 is the ideal solution for high-speed requirements and can be supplied in line with filling and closing machines.
Production plant
IMA Life
Rounded corners inside the processing area improving water drainage and machine cleanability.
Complete separation between process and mechanical areas by means of special seals.
Segregated washing circuits.
Reduced machine footprint to save space in the production area: drives and washing circuit housed in the machine frame.
Easy access to all machine areas.
Simple mechanical drives with low maintenance time impact.
Machines can be pre-arranged with RABS (Restricted Access Barrier System) or installed within an isolator enclosure.
Siemens PLC and HMI ensuring repeatability and safety of the whole process.
The water supply system has been designed to avoid cross-contamination between containers and machine. The steady flow of water ensures the separation of the contamination agent and its being dragged towards the drainage point.
