Description
LBR-100 Automatic Linear Drum-Type Washer for Pharmaceutical Vials (10ml to 500ml)
Gentle Linear Washer for Seamless Line Integration
This automated linear washing and drying system is designed for the efficient cleaning of medical vials and bottles. Its unique rotating drum mechanism ensures gentle yet thorough processing using high-pressure spray nozzles for rinsing and precision air knives for drying. Engineered for flexibility, it is the ideal solution for integration into both sterile and non-sterile filling lines for pharmaceuticals, syrups, and liquid preparations.
Precision Cleaning for Injectable Drug Compliance
The LBR-100 provides a critical pre-filling cleaning process for glass vials, ensuring they meet the stringent particulate matter requirements of pharmacopoeias like USP <788> and EU Annex 1. Its linear drum-type operation offers a gentler alternative to rotary systems, minimizing glass contact and reducing the risk of vial damage or glass particle generation.
Reliable Washing for Integrated Production Lines
Our linear vial washer provides a critical pre-filling preparation step, ensuring containers are perfectly clean and dry for your products. The machine’s straightforward linear design makes it robust, easy to maintain, and simple to integrate into new or existing automated lines, handling everything from small medical vials to larger bottles for syrups.
Key Features & Benefits
Rotating Drum Design: The core innovation. A rotating drum gently agitates and inverts containers, ensuring 360-degree coverage from spray nozzles and air knives for consistent, high-quality cleaning and drying.
Multi-Stage Processing: Containers undergo a complete cycle: pre-rinse, high-pressure wash with customized cleaning agents, purified water rinse, and a final blow-off with filtered, oil-free air for rapid drying.
Exceptional Versatility: Easily configured to handle a wide range of glass (and some plastic) containers, from 10ml vials to 1000ml bottles, with quick changeover tools.
Designed for Integration: The linear conveyor design allows for easy connection to upstream depalletizers and downstream filling machines, creating a seamless automated line for sterile or non-sterile products.
Durable & Sanitary Construction: Built with corrosion-resistant materials (304 or 316L SS) and designed for easy cleaning and maintenance, supporting GMP requirements.
Wide Vial Compatibility: Effortlessly handles a broad spectrum of vials, from small 10ml insulin vials to large 500ml infusion bottles, with quick changeover.
Gentle Drum-Type Washing: Vials are gently tumbled and rotated in a drum module, ensuring all internal and external surfaces are exposed to high-pressure spray jets for uniform cleaning.
Sequential Multi-Stage Process: Each vial undergoes a rigorous cycle including pre-rinse, high-pressure chemical wash, Purified Water (PW) rinse, Water for Injection (WFI) final rinse, and forced-air drying.
GMP & Compliance Ready: Constructed from 316L stainless steel with sanitary fittings. Full documentation suite (DQ, IQ, OQ) available to streamline FDA 21 CFR Part 211 and EU Annex 1 compliance.
Reduced Cross-Contamination: The linear design allows for clean and dirty zone separation, and the system is designed for efficient CIP (Clean-in-Place).
