Bosch
Packaging Technology, one of the leading suppliers of complete systems for packaging and processing technology, enables high filling accuracy and cost effectiveness in pharmaceutical applications.
Ideal for filling syringes, vials and other containers for liquid drugs, the system consists of peristaltic pumps and a disposable tubing system that are fully integrated with a filling machine control system, drive and controllers.
With a filling range of 0.1 milliliter to 30 milliliters, Bosch's peristaltic pump system enables significant production flexibility, including the ability to |

handle even smaller filling volumes.
Offset alignment of the pump rollers guarantees a low pulsation volumetric flow for highly accurate dosing results.
Greater production efficiency is also achieved through the optimized roller alignment, which reduces the strain on the tubing to permit longer periods of use.
By using disposable tubing, the new peristaltic pump system ensures product quality by eliminating the risk of cross contamination and reduces downtime associated with product changeovers by streamlining the changeover process.
The pump can be easily opened and closed to facilitate one-handed tubing exchange, increasing overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) and ease of operation.

"Production quality and efficiency are main objectives for pharmaceutical manufacturers worldwide and the new peristaltic pump system is one way that Bosch can help customers meet these two objectives," said Tom McDaniel, President of Bosch Packaging Technology in Minneapolis.
"With the benefit of a single use product path and high accuracy dosing, this system enhances flexibility and efficiency of small volume, high value drug filling."
