A uniquely simple, yet effective, method of loading pharmaceutical vials into the depyrogenation tunnel.
The TP-1 is compact tunnel loader suitable for sterilizing tunnels with a belt width of up to 600mm. The TP-1 accommodates the full range of pharmaceutical vials, from 2-100ml, without change parts. Even small unstable 2ml vials are gently loaded onto the tunnel belt without tipping over. The TP-1 allows full access to the tunnel infeed area.
The TL-100 is controlled by a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and will handle plastic and glass vials with speeds of up to 200 vials per minute (depending on vial diameter and tray size). It is designed to handle trays up to 610 mm (24") wide (open end) and up to 610 mm (24") deep. Tray materials can be metal, cardboard, corrugated plastic, or rigid plastic.
The TL-200 has two loading platforms (the TL-100 has one), so that two trays are loaded simultaneously. Once the trays are full, the operator replaces one of the loaded trays with an empty one and the machine immediately resumes loading that tray. The operator then replaces the other loaded tray with an empty one. When in place, the machine will resume loading both trays. The process is seamless; there is no additional work to be done or buttons to be depressed by the operator. Once a tray is full, the loading process stops and a yellow light and audible signal indicate that the tray can be replaced.

The TP-4 row-by-row tunnel loader is designed for tunnels with belts over 600mm wide. The benefit of the TP-4 is that the tunnel belt movement can be synchronized with the TP-4 movement at vial format level. This results in an optimum tunnel loading pattern without gaps in the vial pack. This in turn contributes to an even heat distribution in the sterilizing chamber of the tunnel. The TP-4 is PLC-controlled so that the loading speed and travel distance are automatically set per vial format.
Washing vials by hand is quickly becoming a thing of the past. With cGMP issues increasing in Pharma, PennTech has designed and manufactured the perfect aseptic solution to help keep Compounding Pharmacies USP and cGMP Compliant.

SP Scientific announces the on-demand availability of a popular webinar by Jake Luoma of Genentech Inc. that discusses how controlled nucleation has emerged as a technology which promises improvements in lyophilization process throughput and consistency.
SP Scientific announces the launch of a new dedicated website for its PennTech brand of advanced aseptic processing equipment for the pharmaceutical and biotech industries.
Genevac, market leader in solvent removal, has announced the latest version of its proprietary autostop when dry control software which allows it’s EZ-2, Rocket and HT-Series evaporators to automatically detect when the samples are dry and then shut it down - safeguarding valuable samples from potential thermal degradation.
Sample tracking, sample loss and robotic referencing are among the many drawbacks of having to perform a transfer step.
Solvent removal is an essential process for sample preparation across a range of applications in many industries. Many sample formats and solvents are used with no single technique providing a universal solution, but despite the variety of specifics evaporation is well-understood and relatively uncomplicated. But while evaporation is an intrinsic step in so many applications it’s rare to find an evaporation expert in a laboratory, and many facilities use systems that are slow and cumbersome simply because they have always been used.
A new website has been launched by Genevac that provides easily navigable access to the company’s comprehensive portfolio of evaporators and concentrators to suit almost any solvent removal application, purchasing budget or productivity requirement.
The EZ-2 Elite centrifugal evaporator from Genevac, an evaporator of choice for large Pharma R&D, uniquely combines high performance, versatility, ease-of-use and affordability making it the perfect workhorse system for Contract Research Organisations (CRO's).
