Q: What washing cycles are performed in the Multijet Vial Washing Machine?

It typically performs 6 sequential washes in one cycle: 1st & 3rd: DM Water / Purified Water 5th: Water for Injection (WFI) 2nd, 4th & 6th: Purified Compressed Air Both internal and external washing are done thoroughly using positive pressurized jets.

Description

Multijet Vial Washing Machine (also known as a Multijet Ampoule & Vial Washing Machine) is a specialized piece of pharmaceutical equipment designed for the efficient cleaning of glass vials and ampoules used in injectable drug manufacturing. It is a semi-automatic, compact, versatile, and reliable washing machine that complies with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) standards, ensuring high hygiene and minimal contamination risks in medium- and small-scale injectable production facilities.

Loading: Vials or ampoules are placed in perforated trays and inserted into the chamber. The handle lowers to align washing needles precisely into each vial’s mouth.

Washing Cycle: Upon activation, the machine performs sequential washes—typically water jets for rinsing followed by air jets for drying—both internally and externally. Cycles are automated and can be observed through the transparent cover.

Unloading: After completion, the machine stops automatically. Trays are removed, and washed items are ready for further processing (e.g., sterilization).

Working Principle of Multijet Vial Washing Machine

Ampoules are loaded in bulk onto combi tray if received in ready to dump boxes, which will have exactly same number of Ampoules and the pitch, as loading tray. Alternatively, each Ampoule/Vial has to be arranged into the tray individually. The loading tray is placed directly into the machine & the handlebar is lowered for automatic centering of washing needles into the Ampoules neck. The top cover is lowered & switch is operated for automatic sequential washing. Washing is performed from inside and outside of each individual Ampoule. Machine automatically stops after one complete washing cycle with buzzer sound and red-light indication. For removal of tray, reverse procedure is to be observed. Depending on loading & operator’s efficiency one can achieve 30 loading trays in an hour.
