Glass ampoules can be filled and sealed using a single head ampoule filling machine. To finish the automatic filling and sealing of injectable glass ampoules, the machine is outfitted with an automated ampoule feeding, filling, and sealing station. Many small-scale injectable companies, universities, and other parenteral productions employ this lab-scale single head ampoule filling and sealing machine. This equipment is used in the cosmetics sector in addition to the pharmaceutical industry.

Process Operation of Single Head Ampoule Filler
Empty washed & sterilized ampoules fed into in-feed hopper from the left hand side of the machine to receiving rack. The moving rack which moves horizontally collect one ampoule from the receiving rack and transfer the ampoule to the machine in left to right in an inclined position through pre-gassing. Pre-gassing, Filling, Post Gassing, Pre-heating & sealing stations completes filling & sealing operations. Filled & sealed ampoules are collected automatically in SS tray in upright position without hand touch.
The machine performs the following operations:
- Ampoule feeding by in-feed hopper, cassettes and ampoule transfer into transport rack.
- One ampoule advanced per machine stroke.
- Centering of ampoules necks during pre-heating, post heating, gas flushing and liquid filling.
- Rotation of ampoules neck in the pre- heating and heating station.
- Elimination of burdened-off ampoule tips by clippers and ejection into a separate container.
