The patented loading system for freeze dryers ensures maximum process safety, while saving a considerable amount of space. Thanks to its new front pusher design, the system loads vials into the freeze dryer using the linear pushing and pulling motion of a transfer arm. Unlike other systems, the innovative transfer bar is not moved by a hydraulic push rod, but by a mechanical servo drive.
Benefits:

Energy demand & process time

• Patented front pusher system
• Space-saving loading unit within the isolator dimensions
• Drive unit outside the product handling area
• Optimized cleaning and sterilization by eliminating bellows
• Significant space savings in the fill-finish area
• Improved accessibility, e.g. for maintenance work

Performance

• Loading and unloading speed (example 2R vials): up to 400 / min
