Automatic Ampoule Washer is specifically made to clean Ampoule with Minimum Contact Machine Parts. With the use of replacement parts, the machine can wash 1 ml to 20 ml ampoules. The pharmaceutical, veterinary, and biotech industries all make extensive use of automatic rotary ampoule washing systems. Once the ampoule has been effectively cleaned, the gripper releases it into the outfeed feed worm system in a vertical posture until the ampoules have been positively washed. After that, the ampoule is in charge of feeding the feed worm onto the star wheel. The ampoule is then held and inverted by the specifically made gripper before being placed on the rotational moving system for the washing procedure.
One of the best products available is the Automatic Ampoule washer, which has several amazing characteristics. This long-lasting machine is ideal for use in pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities because it is made of premium stainless steel. This machine’s automatic grade system is intended to increase productivity and optimise your production process. The machine is capable of handling even the most difficult duties since it runs at a frequency of 50–60 Hertz (HZ) and a voltage of 220–440 Volt (v). This machine has a straightforward interface that lets you get started right away, and despite its amazing capabilities, it is surprisingly simple to use.
Ampoules feed from the Infeed tray are received on an Infeed Feed worm then moves on Infeed starwheel. The Grippers picks up the Ampoule from Infeed Star Wheel and invert it in neck down position over washing needles and move along with the needle bar for Washing. Ampoules traveling in neck down position above washing needles and moves along with the Needle bar ensures maximum time for washing once the needle enter in the Ampoule neck. Machine having six different washing stations each of 6 needles for optimum Washing and the sequence can be adjusted as per requirements. Washer also having external wash for optimum washing of ampoules.
On completion of a cycle, washed Ampoules are again inverted to neck upward position and feed to output star wheel. Washed Ampoules received from output starwheel can be collected on Output Tray or can be pushed to tunnel. A separate pumping station (optional) gives the right quantum of water at the desired pressure. In the absent of separate pumping station, we can provide the re-circulation & siliconization system on request.
INTERNAL CLEANING:
The AVRW is equipped with 6 internal cleaning stations and each station has 6 cleaning needles making up a total of 36 cleaning needles. Each cleaning station is supplied via a pipe connected to the cleaning media-making washing area. This not only reduces the risk of particle generation, but also simplifies maintenance and cleaning efforts while saving time.
EXTERNAL CLEANING
The 3 external cleaning stations mounted in a stationary position above the ampoule can be easily adjusted for a specific height, angle and lateral position. Each cleaning station receives cleaning media-making through a pipe connected to the cleaning media-making washing area.
CLEANING MEDIA PRINCIPAL:
WFI, Purified water and air cleaning station are synchronized with the ampoule by reciprocating motion. Design is such that these media are put to use only when needles motion in forward direction. WFI consumption is further reduced by collecting the WFI in re-circulating water tank to be used later on in the pre-washing station.

An Automatic Ampoule Washer is a rotary-type, cGMP-compliant pharmaceutical washing machine designed to thoroughly clean the internal and external surfaces of glass ampoules with minimum machine-part contact. Ampoules are automatically fed, gripped, inverted (neck-down), washed using high-pressure jets, and then re-inverted for discharge. It uses multiple stages of recycled water, purified/DM water, Water for Injection (WFI), and compressed air to remove particles, fibers, and contaminants, making ampoules ready for sterilization and filling.
The Automatic Ampoule Washer is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry for cleaning ampoules before filling injectable drugs, vaccines, and sterile solutions. It is also suitable for:
It can be used as a standalone machine or integrated inline with a sterilizing tunnel and filling machine.
The machine is available in two models:
It handles 1 ml to 10 ml ampoules (extendable up to 20 ml with change parts). Size range: Diameter 9 mm to 21.5 mm, Height 60 mm to 140 mm. Changeover is quick using interchangeable parts, and production speed is adjustable with a digital indicator.
The Automatic Ampoule Washer provides 6 internal washing stations (3 water + 3 air washes) with 36 needles (6 needles per station) and 3 external cleaning stations. Standard washing sequence (fully adjustable):
Key features include:
Built as a complete cGMP model, the machine uses AISI 316L Stainless Steel for all product-contact parts and SS 304 or FDA-approved plastics for non-contact parts. Minimum container contact, independent washing zones, and inverted washing reduce contamination risks significantly. It meets stringent FDA and cGMP standards for sterile injectable production. Optional features include 21 CFR Part 11 compliant software, safety cabinet, and full validation documents, ensuring high sterility, operator safety, and easy regulatory approval.
