Injectable powder filling machine also known as vial powder filling machine or vial dry powder filling machine uses for filling injectable powder into glass vials. The monobloc machine known as the Sterile Powder Filler is capable of performing filling and stoppering/bunging tasks on the same platform. For cGMP compliance, all contact parts are constructed from FDA-approved materials or stainless steel 316L.
We offer different variants in injectable powder filling machine in which popular variant is single wheel powder filling machine and double wheel powder filling machine. These models are famous for precision and accuracy with easy operation. We have different machine models which can produce ranging from 30 VPM to 200 VPM. Powder wheel and pistons fabricated with utmost precision to provide higher filling accuracy. In addition, we provide a fully automated Vial Powder Filling Line with our Vial Cap Sealing Machine and Vial Labeling Machine. This Vial Filling Line is having online operations from vial washing machine to sterilization, filling – stoppering, cap sealing to sticker labeling of glass vials.

Process Operation of Injectable Powder Filling Machine
The sterilized powder is stored in powder hopper is agitated by pair of mechanical agitators for maintaining consistency and uniform bulk density. The powder wheel having twelve ports which rotates at pre-determined speed below the powder hopper with practically no clearance. Powder wheel consist of Piston in each port and behind the powder wheel vacuum plate is provided. There is no clearance between powder wheel and vacuum plate due to back spring pressure. Precise volume of powder is sucked into the port of powder wheel during vacuum; according to the piston length different fill size can be achieved. The excess powder is doctored off by a doctor blade. Doctor blades can be adjusted from outside also without removing powder hopper. When powder wheel indexes further and remain in the port due to the vacuum till it reaches just vertically above the container. The time dose of Compressed air (Nitrogen Gas), sterilized low pressure air sequentially flushes out powder from the port of powder wheel in to the container one by one.
The filled containers are immediately separated on the conveyor by vial separator and moves further for stoppering operation.
The sterilized, siliconised, rubber stoppers stored in the vibrator bowl moves to vibratory bowl and stacked vertically in the rubber stopper chute. The container is hold firmly between pair or timing belt to pickup rubber stopper from exit end of the chute. Further container is passed between two pressing roller for tight fit fixing of rubber stoppers.
