TurboFil Packaging Machines LLC, an equipment specialist for liquid filling and assembly machines, will introduce its latest precision through-the-tip benchtop syringe filler at Booth 2860. The TipFil Plus Benchtop Syringe Filler + Capper is designed to provide reliable, aseptic-ready fill and closure at a rate of up to 15 pieces per minute. The TurboFil’s TipFil Plus is especially suited for lab settings and compound pharmacies. 

How it works

After filling the unit’s pressure hopper and attaching the product contact set, an operator manually loads a holding boat containing eleven syringes with pre-inserted plungers, then places the boat into the filler’s indexing mechanism. Once the first syringe engages the corresponding nozzle’s tip, the system dispenses product with a draw filler, which can be fed via reservoir bag or other common container. Post-fill, the unit indexes forward to a capping station, where caps are applied and torqued or tamped to each of the boat’s syringes. 

Features

The TipFil Plus can perform through-the-tip filling for liquids or viscous products in a variety of typical infeed scenarios. The unit’s automatic capping station features a stainless steel vibratory bowl feeder, track and sensors, as well as a placement mechanism. Fully aseptic-ready, the TipFil Plus can fit under a laminar flow hood, restricted access barrier system (RABS) or isolator. 

“The TipFil Plus Benchtop Syringe Filler + Capper provides consistent, efficient and aseptic-ready filling and capping operations for labs and compound pharmacies, as well as other small-scale filling operations,” said Deborah Smook, VP of Marketing & Business Development for TurboFil Packaging Machines LLC. “With the number of targeted and investigational treatments steadily climbing, the unit offers a reliable, convenient means of accurately filling and securing injectables in a wide range of syringe shapes and sizes.”
