Vial Filling and Bunging Machine

Description

Adinath International, a trusted leader in pharmaceutical machinery manufacturing with decades of industry experience, offers high-precision Vial Filling and Bunging Machines designed for accurate and contamination-free filling of liquid injectables into glass vials. Also known as the Automatic Vial Filling and Rubber Stoppering Machine, this advanced system efficiently fills vials and securely inserts rubber stoppers (bungs) in a single continuous operation, making it an essential solution for pharmaceutical companies producing small volume parenterals (SVP). Our vial liquid filling machines utilize state-of-the-art peristaltic pumps or piston pumps, ensuring exceptional filling accuracy of ±1%. This precision minimizes product wastage and guarantees consistent dosing across every batch. The machine is particularly ideal for round glass vials and is engineered to maintain strict sterility standards by placing rubber stoppers immediately after filling, significantly reducing the risk of contamination.

Salient Features of Vial Filling and Bunging Machine

Working Principle of Vial Filling and Bunging Machine

The incoming dry vials (sterilized and siliconised) are fed through the in-feed turn table and suitably guided on the moving Stainless Steel slat conveyor belt at the required speed of the correct placement below filling unit.

 

The filling unit consists syringes & nozzles. Syringes are made of Stainless Steel 316L material for cGMP compliance. Vials stop below filling unit with centering of filling nozzles, during stoppage nozzles discharge pre determined liquid into vials. Duly filled vials delivered on stoppering unit which is mounted on same platform.

Stoppering Unit consist Bowl and Chute designed for desired stopper / bung size. Stoppers are stored in vibratory bowl and delivered to the vial through delivery chute. Vibratory bowl is equipped with special vibrator motor. Stoppers travel in vibratory bowl support guide through vibration. There is arrangement in the bowl in which wrong position stopper get rejected in travelling and only correct position of stopper get into chute. Further stoppers hold at delivery point of chute through spring which collected one by one by vial in traveling below the chute. Further there is one Stainless Steel 304 roller installed to press the stoppers. Vial transfer below the wheel in which get stoppered.

 

Duly stoppered vials further move on conveyor & collected on out feed turn table (optional) or on to conveyor of vial aluminum cap sealing machine for cap sealing operations.

  • Vial Loading: Empty, sterilized vials are fed via the infeed turntable onto a conveyor.

 

  • Filling Process: Vials move to the filling station, where nozzles descend to inject the exact volume of liquid. The synchronized motion filling system allows nozzles to track vials without stopping the line, enhancing speed.

 

  • Stoppering Process: Filled vials transfer to the stoppering station, where a vibrating bowl dispenses oriented rubber stoppers into a chute. Vials are held by a rotating star wheel, picking up stoppers that are then pressed down by rollers.

 

  • Output: Stoppered vials exit via the outfeed turntable for further processes like capping or labeling.

Key Components of Vial Filling and Bunging Machine

  • Infeed and Outfeed Systems: Built-in turntables with individual drives for smooth vial entry and exit, often including a Delrin slat conveyor to prevent sticking and ensure consistent movement.

 

  • Filling Station: Equipped with multiple heads (e.g., 2, 4, 8, or 12) for simultaneous filling. Nozzles move vertically via cam mechanisms for precise dosing, with options for nitrogen flushing before and after filling to minimize oxidation. A “No Vial, No Fill” system prevents liquid wastage.

 

  • Stoppering Unit: Features a vibrating bowl and Teflon-coated chute for orienting and feeding rubber stoppers. Vacuumetric or pneumatic systems pick and press stoppers uniformly using spring-loaded rollers, supporting both full and half-stoppering.

 

  • Safety and Construction: All liquid-contact parts are made of stainless steel (SS 316L) for easy sterilization and autoclaving. The machine includes acrylic safety covers, laminar airflow for cleanroom compatibility, and PLC/HMI controls for automation.

 

  • Drive System: Powered by high-quality gear motors and AC drives for vibration-free operation, with minimal oil leakage.

FAQ for Vial Filling and Bunging Machine

The machine offers flexible output ranging from 30 to 250 vials per minute, depending on the model (e.g., two-head or multi-head configurations) and vial size. Two-head models are ideal for medium-scale production, while higher-capacity versions support large commercial batches. Speed can be easily adjusted using the variable AC frequency drive.

It handles round glass vials with diameters of 15 mm to 70 mm and heights of 25 mm to 140 mm (typically 5 ml to 250 ml capacity). Fill volumes range from 2 ml to 250 ml for liquids and 50 mg to 10 grams for powders. It supports rubber bungs/stoppers from 13 mm to 32 mm (full or half stoppering) with quick-change parts for different formats.

The machine delivers high precision with accuracy of ±0.5% to ±1% for liquids (using piston or peristaltic pumps) and ±1% to ±2% for powders (vacuum wheel system). Features like non-return valves, adjustable piston stroke, and uniform density control ensure consistent dosing across every batch.

The machine uses advanced sensors for “No Vial – No Filling” and “No Vial – Machine Stop” functionality. If no vial is detected at the filling or bunging station, the machine automatically stops dosing or the entire operation to prevent product wastage, spillage, and contamination. This enhances safety and efficiency in sterile environments.
