A filling device for filling nested containers, which are arranged in at least one row in a nest and are conveyable by means of a conveying device, having a filling station for simultaneously filling the containers of one row, having at least one weighing station for weighing a row of containers, having a first gripping device for simultaneously removing a row of containers to be filled and for transferring said containers to a first weighing station of the at least one weighing station and for transferring the weighed containers from the at least one weighing station back into the nest or into a different nest. The filling device additionally comprises a second gripping device, for simultaneously removing the row of filled and weighed containers and for transferring said containers to the first weighing station or to a second weighing station of the at least one weighing station and for transferring the row of filled and twice weighed containers from the at least one weighing station back into the nest or into a different nest.
摘要:
Disclosed is a process for the treatment or processing of containers that serve for storing, or contain, substances for medical, pharmaceutical or cosmetic applications, wherein the containers are conveyed automatically, by a conveyor, past at least one processing station or pass it for the treatment or processing. In the process, a plurality of containers is conveyed by the conveyor while being held by a carrier in a regular arrangement. The containers held on the carrier are raised to a raised position for the treatment or processing at or in the respective processing station and are lowered after the treatment or processing, to be held again on the carrier in the regular arrangement. The carrier is configured such that the containers can be held on the carrier during the entire process. A negative pressure acts on the bottoms of the containers in order to lower them.

摘要:
The invention relates to a device (10; 10a) for determining the weight of pharmaceutical products (1), in particular of hard gelatin capsules (3; 3a) filled with a pharmaceutical (2), by means of an X-ray source (28), wherein the X-ray source (28) generates a radiation cone (27; 36, 37) which passes through at least one pharmaceutical product (1), and wherein a sensor element (30; 30a) detects the radiation of the irradiated pharmaceutical product (1) and supplies an evaluation device (32). According to the invention, a reference object (35; 35a; 35b) is arranged in the beam path of the radiation cone (27; 36, 37), wherein the radiation of the X-rayed reference object (35; 35a; 35b) is detected by means of the sensor element (30; 30a; 30b) and is supplied to the evaluation device (32), and wherein the pharmaceutical product (1) and the reference object (35; 35a; 35b) are positioned in relation to the radiation cone (27; 36, 37) in an arrangement in which they do not overlap each other in the radiation cone (27; 36, 37).
摘要:
The station for weighing containers comprises a line for transporting containers to be filled with a predetermined product, a zone for dosing and filling the containers with the product, a first transferring organ for picking up and transferring an individual empty container to a weighing organ, a second transferring organ for picking up and transferring the container to the weighing organ after filling. The transferring organs respectively comprise an oscillating arm which is activated with alternating motion between a pick-up and release position of the container to be weighed in proximity of the transport line and a position of release and pick-up of the container nearby the weighing organ. The oscillating arm bears a rotating head provided with gripping organs which is rotated angularly in opposite directions by a relative motor, in a suitable phase relation with the motion of the oscillating arm, in order to transfer the container to be weighed from the transport line to the weighing organ and vice versa.
