Design Intent
Our machine has been designed from the ground up to be the
machine of the future. We've used our knowledge from being in the industry
for over 25 years (see
www.awsbiopharma.com) to build a machine that not only meets the growing
need for an aseptically approved production capper, but is also clean, hi-tech,
and easy to use
Production Capper for the Aseptic Space
We use a patented process known as hi-speed,
electromagnetic forming to seal the vial. An electromagnetic field is
formed around the vial, forcing the seal to wrap under the neck of the vial.
Since there is no physical contact with the seal, no/low particulate is created.
In addition to no particulate being created from the actual
sealing of the vial, no damage is caused to the vial itself. Breaking,
chipping, scratches and other rejection criteria are dramatically reduced when
compared to traditional capping operations.
New-Technology Applications
Besides our
revolution of the capping process methods, we've designed the entire machine to
user-friendly, and with technology for the 21st century.
-
Design
without Belts: We have designed the MajiCap to run vials using only the
starwheel and turn tables. This greatly reduces the number of wear
parts and increases the overall cleanability of surfaces. Instead,
vials are gently floated on a cushion of air across the table. The air
used for this cushion can either be provided as a utility (clean compressed
air, often Nitrogen), or the air already in the clean room can be recycled
and reused.
-
Removal of
Casters: Instead of installing bulky, dirty, rolling casters, that
make the machine difficult to roll, and harder to clean around, we've built
in a system of 'air casters'. These air cushions float the machine
across any smooth, clean and finished floor, for easy access to the machine
for maintenance, or under the machine for cleaning.
-
Universal
Hopper Feeder: One size fits all! We've fit a hopper onto our
machine that can accomodate any of the 3 main sizes of caps - 13mm, 20mm,
and 27mm. This reduces the number of change parts needed for your
stockroom.
More Standard Design Features
-
Short
change-over: With the understanding of the pharmaceutical industry's
need for smaller batches and quicker change-over times, we've designed the
MajiCap to be changed over in 15 minutes or less (depending on the type of
changeover).
-
All
materials that come into contact with the vials are either Stainless Steel
316 or 316L(for welded parts)
-
Electronic
Control: Everything from the electronically controlled flow valves, to
the innovative stepper motors is fully controlled by the Allen-Bradley
Micrologix 1500 and Panelview 900 control panel.
