Trade Fair Première at Interphex 2015: OPTIMA H4 for three container types

Flexibility and standardization combined.

A new type of filling and closing machine: OPTIMA H4 covers a great number of diverse applications. At the same time OPTIMA H4 conforms fully to the customer wish for simple operation, ease of accessibility, reliability and low space requirement. High-tech functions are used where these contribute to overall flexibility for the fundamental concept for the system. Extensive standardization in the development of OPTIMA H4 allow the pre-manufacture of modules, resulting in time and cost benefits. Nested vials, syringes and cartridges are all processed. OPTIMA H4 has its Interphex trade fair debut.

Opening the tubs and removing the Tyvek® papers can be done, if required, by a robot. The robot is already installed in the area of the filling machine, thus saving space. Semi-automated systems could also be integrated. There is also freedom of choice in respect of containment: Regardless whether oRABS, cRABS or isolators, all systems can be fitted to the standardized machine baseplate at low cost. For filling, a ten-position system is provided. For filling flexibility and simple format changes, rotary pistion pumps as well asperistaltic or time-pressure filling systems can be added and at any time.

The transport system of OPTIMA H4 originates from high performance machinery. It has been simplified mechanically but nevertheless ensures even and particularly careful handling of the containers. A high output rate of up to 24,000 objects per hour is achieved. Retrofitting can also expand output up to 36,000 objects / hr. The same applies to upgrading of in-process controls (IPC) and for vacuum filling and vacuum stopper inserting. Both can be supplemented at a later date without requiring changes to the machine baseplate.

The OPTIMA H4 is presented live at the fair. As a leading turnkey provider Optima Pharma also offers know-how in further technologies. In addition to filling and closing, finely adjusted interacting process technology systems are here at the foreground: for example washing machines, sterilizing tunnels, isolators and further containment systems. Pharmaceutical freeze drying and robotics for product handling complete the extensive Optima Pharma portfolio.
