2. Machine Design
Base machine
1. The machine is designed as a single-track linear system with a motor actuated film transfer control. In the machine, the film will be transported through grippers.
2. According to its required capacity, the machine is either equipped with one working stations.
3. The machine's framework consist of stainless steel AISI 304, especially suitable for pharmaceutical use.
4. All components coming in touch with the product are made of stainless steel AISI 316 L quality.
5. The safety doors and windows mounted on the framework are made of polycarbonate. Thus they correspond to the health and safety regulations and ensure at the same time an optical supervisory control.
6. The machine is equipped with a switch cabinet and a control unit. The control units are interconnected via a bus system.
3. Working Station
-01- Unwinding Station
The film is fed into the machine via a motor controlled unwinding device.
The film roll is pneumatically cramped onto the reception bolt. In order to ensure a constant film transfer speed, the film is temporarily stored on a castoring wheel.
Thus, the changing film roll diameter is compensated.
The motor to unwind the film will be started as soon as the castoring wheel
releases a sensor.
Unique membrane-free alarm,alarm can be exhausted in the membrane.*
-02- Printing Station
The 'Full-Face' print is printed on the bag film using a hot film printing unit.
Variable manufacturing data, such as the production number, the best-before date, the batch number, etc. are adapted by exchanging the separate reception vises which are especially designed for this purpose.
Printing temperature, printing time and printing pressure are adjustable.
Control precision(±0.5ºC).*
The automatic printing film supervisory unit (odometer to determine the film feed) ensures a machine stop in case the printing film has run out or teared off, and thus ensures a constant bag printing.
The printing film reception rolls are equipped with a pneumatic, hand-operated clamping. So the printing film can be exchanged very easily and without any special tool, the time required for service purposes is reduced to a minimum.
In order to ensure that the bag film does not adhere to the printing film subsequent to the printing process, the bag film is held down by pneumatic film clips.
For changing the printing block, only two clamps have to be released. The block reception must not be removed if you have to change the characters of the production and best-before date, the batch number, etc.
-03- Film Transfer Station
Film transfer with film opener.
The film transfer is performed by an electric motor driven linear gear unit. During the transfer, the film is held by pneumatic film clips. When the film is fed in, the two film layers are opened with a fixed opener taper key in the front area, where the next step, i.e. the port insertion, will be carried out.
-04- Contour Welding and Cutting Station
This station is used for welding the outer contour of the bag, for adhering the ports to the bag film and for cutting the outer contour of the bags. The welding is done by exchangeable welding tools provided with heating cartridges to produce the required welding temperature.
Welding time, pressure and temperature are adjustable.
Control precision(±0.5ºC).*
The welding temperature is verified within a defined min./max. range by the PLC control unit and temperature sensor, in order to ensure a permanently correct welding process.
In case the welding temperature remains under or exceeds - for any reason whatsoever - the defined min. / max. range, the machine will stop. Simultaneously, an error message is displayed in the control panel.
Using the unique design of the heating plate and mold separation, replacement of mold is extremely simple.*
High-precision processing technology, don't adjust the mold.*
-05- Port Pre Heating Station
This station serves for pre-heating the ports up to a certain temperature before they arrive between the two bag film layers of the contour welding station, and thus it ensures an optimal welding of port and bag film. For this, two pre-heating tools which are pre-heated to a certain temperature and having the same contour as the ports, are brought together on the port. Pre-heating temperature and time can be adjusted via the control panel.
Using the unique design of the heating plate and mold separation, replacement of mold is extremely simple.*
-06- Port Feeding With Feeder Bowl And Buffer
The port conveyor belt is fed with the ports via feeder bowl, buffer and linear transfer. Grippers place the ports into the port nids of the conveyor belts and the servomotor and gear driven conveyor belt transports the ports stepwise towards the particular stations.
-07- Port Welding Station
This station is used for welding ports and bag film.
For this, two welding tools which are preheated up to a certain temperature are
brought together on the bag head contour.
Welding time and temperature are adjustable via control panel.
Control precision(±0.5ºC).*
Using the unique design of the heating plate and mold separation,
replacement of mold is extremely simple.
High-precision processing technology, perfect welding.
-08- Waste Ejector
This station serves for removing the film rests that still adhere to the different bags.
The film rests are gripped by the pneumatic grippers and transported towards
the waste box by a pneumatic driving mechanism.
-09- Bag Flip & Leak Detection Station
Holding an empty bag of the fixture to be pulled down,
by suction vacuum bags leak detection method.
Leak bag or no bag will not fill.*
This servomotor and gear driven bag conveyor belt transports the bags cycle-wise towards the differents working stations.
-10- Filling Station
The filling station is equipped with 2 filling systems. The filling systems are lowered towards the bag by means of a pneumatic cylindre. The filling systems consist of a filling valve, a flowmeter, product distribution and connecting hoses.
For proportioning the filling volume a massflow metering system is used.
The filling systems, flowmeters, product distribution and product lines are
designed to be sterilized inline.
-11- Cap Station With Feeder Bowl and Buffer
The cap station is fed simultaneously with two caps via buffer, feeder bowl and linear transfer. The caps are fed into a nid located directly over the bag. Here, the caps which are held through a vacuum, are welded on the port. Thus, the bags are form closed with the cap.
Caps prior to the picking up first by the cylinder compaction,ensure that smoking will not fall from the film ignited by heat. Reduce the heat to of maintenance.*
Use a heating piece of complete and the melting of the hermetic seal docking port and welding,reduce the heat to of maintenance.*
-12- Bag Outfeed with Transport Belt
The finished bags are taken out by gripper system and leave the machine to
the outfeed conveyor belt.
PS:With * are unique of our company.

4. CIP / SIP Device
consisting of automatic function of CIP / SIP including steaming bar and drain pipes
for condensate water. The outlet valves of drain and steam are to open manually.
CIP (Cleaning in Place)
After the rinsing process has been started from the filling station control panel by manual operating, the filling nozzle will move downward into the cleaning and steaming bar. The filling nozzle at the different filling locations are sealed with a silicone gasket in the cleaning and steaming bar. The cleaning fluid flows from the product connection through the surge tank into the product distributor. From here,
the cleaning fluid flows into the different filling locations, through the mass flow, the product tube and through the filling valve into the cleaning and steaming bar. From here, the cleaning fluid flows through two outlet tubes into a drainpipe beneath the filling station. After cleaning, the filling nozzle returns to its original position.
SIP (Steam in Place)
After the cleaning of the machine the steaming process will begin at a temperature of about 125 °C. After the steaming process has been started from the filling station control panel by manual operating, the filling nozzle will move downwards into the cleaning and steaming bar. The filling nozzle at the different filling locations are sealed with a silicone gasket in the cleaning and steaming bar. The filling valves are opened and the superheated steam moves from the product connection trough the surge tank into the product distributor. From here the superheated steam moves into the different filling locations, through the mass flow, the product tube and through the filling valve into the cleaning and steaming bar. Inside the cleaning and steaming bar, two side-mounted temperature probes (PT - 100) monitor the temperature during the cleaning process. From here, the superheated steam moves through two outlet
tubes into the drainpipe beneath the filling station. Two stop valves are located on the left and on the right hand side of the drainpipe. Beneath stop valve a approx.1 mm diameter aperture is located. Through this gooseneck the superheated steam condenses into water. This condensate is finally let out through a drainpipe.
At the end of SIP process the filling nozzles will stay in the sterile steaming bar and wait for set up or next production to ensure sterile conditions of the whole filling system.
