R&D Vial Washing Machine

The machine supports 1ml to 20ml ampoules and 2ml to 100ml vials. It features quick changeover capabilities (under 15 minutes) and interchangeable needle plates, making it highly flexible for R&D environments where multiple container sizes are tested frequently.

The model (AAVW 340P) can achieve up to 100 ampoules/vials per minute, depending on the needle plate configuration and operator efficiency. It is optimized for small to medium batches rather than high-volume commercial production.

Vials/ampoules are manually loaded into trays (bulk or individual placement). The tray is placed in the machine, the handlebar is lowered for needle centering, and the acrylic cover is closed. The PLC-controlled system then performs sequential internal and external washing with pressurized jets of filtered water and compressed air. The cycle ends automatically with a buzzer and red-light indicator. Trays are then manually unloaded.

• Compact GMP model with SS 316 / FDA-approved contact parts
• PLC + HMI touch screen control with solenoid valves and timers
• Acrylic safety cover with auto-stop/resume function
• 5 or 10 micron replaceable filters for washing media
• Positive pressurized jets for efficient cleaning with minimal media usage
• Internal & external washing + IQ/OQ documentation support
• Low power consumption (0.25 H.P.)

Yes. It uses separate washing circuits, high-efficiency filtration, and FDA-approved materials (SS 316, Polycarbonate, HDPE, PP) to effectively remove particulates and microbial contaminants. The design supports sterile conditions required before filling and sealing operations.

It is suitable for:

• Pharmaceutical Industry
• Biotech Industry
• Nutraceutical Industry
• Herbal & Ayurvedic Industry
• Cosmetic Industry
• Chemical Industry

It is particularly valuable for injectable and sterile liquid production.

• Small footprint ideal for R&D labs
• Quick changeovers (<15 minutes)
• Water recycling to minimize consumption
• Low maintenance and easy operation (even by semi-skilled operators)
• Helps avoid FDA issues related to glass particulates
• Cost-effective for pilot and small-batch production

The machine is controlled via a PLC/HMI-based touch screen for fully automatic washing cycles. Maintenance is straightforward: filters are easily replaceable, the unit disassembles for cleaning, and the transparent acrylic cover allows real-time monitoring. Safety interlocks enhance operational reliability.

Yes. Customization options include:

• Voltage adjustment for local power supply
• Different needle plates and washing sequences
• Additional 21 CFR Part 11 compliance features
• Integration with other lab equipment (e.g., sterilizing tunnels)
• Tailored IQ/OQ documentation
