Pharmaceutical filling machines

Cartridge filling machines

Reliable cartridge filling machines for sensitive active ingredients and complex application systems.

A cartridge filling machine is crucial for the precise and reliable processing of active ingredients that are filled into cartridges - whether for auto injectors, pens or specialised application systems. Our solutions cover a wide range of services and support both smaller production quantities and highly automated lines for larger batches. This gives pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturers the flexibility they need to adapt dynamically to market requirements.

Our systems process ready-to-use cartridges just as safely as cartridges in bulk, giving you complete freedom in your packaging strategy and production planning. RTU formats reduce set-up times and increase sterile safety, while bulk options offer economic advantages for large quantities.

Stable process conditions, precise dosing technology and gentle handling ensure that even sensitive or high-priced formulations are filled safely. Due to the modular machine design, our cartridge filling machines grow with your requirements - ideal for manufacturers who want to combine efficiency, product quality and long-term scalability in one system.

Features for safe and reliable filling of cartridges

NTT process

The no-touch transfer (NTT) ensures the GMP-compliant introduction of pre-sterilised packaging materials in double bags into the class A area. Additional procedures such as disinfection or bio-decontamination are no longer required when introducing the product into the aseptic zone. The NTT process is fully compliant with EU GMP Annex 1 and is based on the principles of quality risk management in accordance with ICH Q9.

Dosing system

A suitable dosing system with maximum accuracy is available for every product - whether water-like or highly viscous: rotary piston pump, peristaltic pump or time-pressure dosing. For optimum filling results, vacuum-assisted filling and vacuum-assisted closing can also be added. Adjustable gas flushing during filling and closing is also possible.

IPC process

The fully automatic statistical in-process control (IPC) checks the dosing quantity of the objects during the filling and closing process. Automatic readjustment of the dosing quantity in the event of under- or overdosing guarantees the highest filling quality.

Maximum process reliability

To increase process reliability, camera systems can be integrated to check the stopper height for syringes and cartridges. Poorly positioned objects can also be ejected fully automatically, minimising manual effort.
