Single Head Vial Cap Sealing Machine

Q: Can the machine handle different types of caps and vial sizes?

Yes, the machine is highly versatile. It can process round vials ranging from 2 ml to 100 ml in volume, with a diameter of 15mm to 80mm and a height of 20mm to 180mm. It is compatible with both plain aluminum caps and flip-off seals (13mm to 33mm diameter) using specific change parts for each size.

Q: How does the machine prevent damage to vials during the sealing process?

The machine features a spring-loaded free-spinning sealing assembly that provides flexibility for variations in the container neck diameter. Additionally, a safety clutch system is incorporated to stop the machine immediately if it encounters a vial with an odd diameter, effectively preventing breakage.

Q: Is this machine suitable for sterile cleanroom environments?

Yes, the machine is built to full cGMP standards . All parts that come into contact with the vials or caps are made from stainless steel or other food-grade materials. For sterile Class 100 filling, optional features like a Laminar Air Flow (LAF) unit and a safety cabinet with acrylic doors can be integrated.

Description

Single Head Vial Cap Sealing Machine is a compact, precision-engineered piece of equipment designed for sealing injectable glass vials with aluminum flip-off or plain caps, primarily used in the pharmaceutical, veterinary, and biotech industries. It is ideal for small to medium-scale production, offering a maximum output of around 40-50 vials per minute, depending on vial size, cap type, and machine configuration. An Automatic Single Head Vial Cap Sealing Machine is a compact, pharmaceutical-grade unit designed to apply aluminum or “flip-off” seals to injectable glass vials. It is the ideal solution for R&D labs, pilot plants, and small-batch production facilities that require high precision within a limited workspace.

Working Principle of Single Head Vial Cap Sealing Machine

Our Automatic Vial Sealing Machine has a conveyor belt that moves the feed container to the star wheel. Now the star wheel sets the container below the sealing head for the indexing bit. Caps are picked by bottles from the delivery chute of the cap feeding bowl of the machine. The body and neck of the container are placed below the rotating head of the machine. The sealing head of the machine performs threading and sealing with precision. Designed with stainless steel matt finish, the machine comprises of no container, no cap arrangement.

Key Components of Single Head Vial Cap Sealing Machine

Construction: Built with a stainless steel finish and a mild steel frame with stainless steel cladding, ensuring durability, compliance with cGMP standards, and suitability for cleanroom environments.

Operation: Fully automatic with a vibratory bowl feeder for continuous cap feeding, ensuring seamless integration with liquid or powder filling lines. The machine uses a single spinning roller sealing mechanism for precise, crease-free sealing.

Process: Vials are fed via a conveyor belt to a star wheel, which positions them under the sealing head. Caps are automatically picked from the delivery chute, placed on the vial, and sealed by a rotating head with adjustable sealing pressure to accommodate various cap gauges and sizes.

Versatility: Suitable for round vials (2 ml to 100 ml) and both flip-off and plain aluminum caps, with change parts for different vial and cap sizes.

Safety Features: Includes a “No Vial – No Cap” system, a clutch device to prevent vial breakage, and a photo-sensing device to stop the machine if no caps are detected in the chute.

Speed Control: Equipped with a variable AC frequency drive and gear motor, allowing operators to adjust speed based on production needs.

Additional Features: Some models offer a digital counter for tracking sealed vials, a hopper that can be dismantled for easy cleaning, and optional features like PLC with HMI, laminar airflow, or safety cabinets for sterile operations.

FAQ for Single Head Vial Cap Sealing Machine

What is the production capacity of the Single Head Vial Cap Sealing Machine?

The Single Head model (ACS-60) is designed for lower production requirements, offering a maximum output of up to 50 vials per minute. The actual speed depends on the vial size, the type of cap being used, and the overall machine configuration.

Can the machine handle different types of caps and vial sizes?

Yes, the machine is highly versatile. It can process round vials ranging from 2 ml to 100 ml in volume, with a diameter of 15mm to 80mm and a height of 20mm to 180mm. It is compatible with both plain aluminum caps and flip-off seals (13mm to 33mm diameter) using specific change parts for each size.
