Description

Dry Syrup Powder Filler also known as a dry syrup filling machine or powder suspension filler is specialized pharmaceutical packaging equipment designed to accurately dispense and fill dry powder formulations—typically reconstitutable oral suspensions like antibiotics—into bottles or containers. These powders are mixed with water by the end-user to create a liquid syrup, making them stable for storage without preservatives. The machine ensures precise dosing to maintain product integrity, prevent contamination, and meet regulatory standards like GMP. These fillers are commonly used in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food, and chemical industries for high-volume production. They handle free-flowing or semi-free-flowing powders and can fill 5–200 grams per bottle, depending on the model.

Most dry syrup powder fillers operate on one of two main principles:

Auger-Type Filling:
- An auger screw measures and dispenses powder by controlling the number of rotations.
- Powder is fed into a hopper, vibrated for even flow, and augered into the bottle.
- Servo motors or PLC systems adjust speed and volume via a touch screen for ±2% accuracy.
- Ideal for non-free-flowing powders; includes anti-dust features like neck-holding mechanisms to prevent spillage.

Volumetric Cup Filling:
- Uses rotating cups or pistons to scoop a fixed volume of powder.
- Best for free-flowing powders; avoids auger damage to delicate granules.
- Less precise for irregular shapes but faster for uniform products.

The process typically includes:

Infeed: Sterilized bottles enter via conveyor and star wheel.

Filling: Powder is dosed under vacuum/air pressure for speed and cleanliness.

Outfeed: Filled bottles exit for capping/sealing.

Safety features: Sensors for low air/vacuum, no-bottle detection, and glass safety cabinets.

Working Principle of Dry Syrup Powder Filler

The incoming sterilized dry bottle is fed through the in-feed turn table. Suitable guide supply bottles on to flat conveyor belt at the required speed for feeding. There is filling head mounted on machine top plate in the same line.

When bottle reaches to the mechanical holder detained filling station, Bottle sensor sense the bottles and Magnetic clutch starts to rotate which is mounted on auger shaft. It fills the desired amount of powder into the bottle through auger, where rotation time is previously determined.

Duly filled bottles go upward on to the sealing station with the help of SS conveyor belt.

FAQ for Dry Syrup Powder Filler

What is a Dry Syrup Powder Filler and how does it work?

A Dry Syrup Powder Filler (also known as Auger Dry Syrup Filling Machine) is specialized equipment designed to accurately fill dry powder formulations — typically reconstitutable oral suspensions like antibiotics — into bottles. It uses a magnetic clutch-driven auger screw: sterilized bottles are fed via star wheel onto a conveyor, a sensor detects the bottle, and the auger rotates to dispense the precise volume of powder through a vibratory funnel. This ensures consistent dosing with minimal dust and spillage.

What is the production output and filling accuracy of the machine?

The machine is available in two models:

AI-DPM 12: Up to 80 bottles per minute
AI-DPM 16: Up to 120 bottles per minute

Fill volume ranges from 5gms to 70gms per dose (with change parts). Filling accuracy is ±2%, depending on powder characteristics when operated under controlled humidity below 28% RH.

What types of powders and containers can it handle?

It is ideal for dry syrup powders, granules, and semi-free-flowing to non-free-flowing pharmaceutical powders used in reconstitutable oral suspensions (e.g., pediatric antibiotics). It handles bottles with diameters up to 85mm and heights up to 200mm. All product contact parts are SS316 (with Nylon/HDPE options) for hygiene and easy cleaning.

What are the key features of the Dry Syrup Powder Filler?

Monobloc cGMP model with SS304 construction
Unique vibratory funnel system for high-speed filling of semi-free-flowing powders
“No Bottle – No Fill” system and automatic infeed/exit via star wheel
Tool-less adjustment of doctor blade and wiper blade
