How a versatile freeze-dryer automatic loading & unloading system with integrated contactless magnetic slider technology achieves high performance in the pharmaceutical freeze-drying process.

ABSTRACT

How new technology in the field of loading & unloading systems for pharmaceutical freeze-drying processes allows freeze-dryer cold shelf loading whilst managing different formats of containers and recipes without decreasing the loading speed. By incorporating new frictionless magnetic drive technology, a new freeze dryer vial automatic loading/unloading system with the ability to have CIP/SIP inside chamber which has proven to successfully ensure a peak performance in production. Lyogistics Zero is a new system developed by Telstar that not only provides unprecedented levels of technical precision and robustness, but also actively contributes to maintain integrity of the freeze-drying process and product under full aseptic conditions. This case study shows how the implementation of this new system effectively responds to high demanding specific challenges.
