General-Market-Trends of the Future? Smart Solution in sterile filling with Multi Use for ready-to-use components
The main reason for going new ways is the great transformation, in Media, Consumer goods, Financial services and Communication. Currently, we see a trend for more biotechnology products and individual therapies for patients. The variety of products increases drastically and many of them are very potent. Therefore, our machines have to be highly flexible to process this products, containers and batch sizes. It has to be recognized that the life cycle of products will be much more dynamic and new product varieties and containers have to be processed. This calls for more flexible and reconfigurable solution that will enable the life cycle management.
The pharmaceutical demands on machine manufacturers are steadily increasing. In the recent past, clean room classifications (RABS / isolators) and sterilization processes (UV / H2O2 / Plasma / e-beam) were the main focus. Today dosing systems (rotary piston pump, time pressure, peristaltic pump) and stoppering are of great importance. Another trend of prime importance is the demand for automatic and 100% IPC.
Nested syringe machines must thereby provide a wide variety of performance options.
Established syringe manufacturers are now offering nested cartridges and vials. Machine manufacturers need to act on such trends with sophisticated and flexible solutions.
The big challenge when developing a syringe processing line is the handling of different objects such as syringes, vials and cartridges on a single machine.
All these objects are supplied pre-sterilized in trays.
Multi use filling machines for ready-to-use components are the new trend in the pharma industry.
Today smaller batch size and higher value products are used compared to previous larger batch sizes.
Optima pharma has realized the demands and has established a high flexibility to process ready-to-use components on one machine (Multi use filling machines).
