AST’s Vial Sealing System (VSS) is a benchtop, semi-automatic machine used for sealing or capping pharmaceutical vials and bottles with aluminum caps. The VSS provides complete and precise control of the container sealing or capping operations to ensure the highest quality vial seal. The system’s versatility allows for the processing of a wide range of vial or bottle sizes and finishes and is ideal for small batch processing of sterile pharmaceutical and biotechnology products. The Vial Sealing System was designed with cGMP in mind. Its compact, aseptic design provides complete compatibility with cleanrooms, bio-safety cabinets, laminar airflow hoods, and aseptic isolator environments. Consistent High-Quality Sealing Proper application of the vial cap is critical to container closure integrity, sterility and stability of the drug product within the vial. The Vial Sealing System monitors critical parameters such as applied force prior to forming the seal on the aluminum skirt to ensure proper stopper compression during the sealing process. The system utilizes a free-spinning disk design that has been optimized to minimize the generation of particles during the sealing process and to form a pharmaceutically aesthetic seal. ASTView high-resolution interface provides intelligent and intuitive control of the system for creating unique recipes and real-time process monitoring Dispense system provides accurate and repeatable container filling with automatic volumetric monitoring and adjustment Uniform vial sealing using a sealing disk provides a repeatable quality overseal that eliminates the common challenges of jaw style crimping
