Claudio Lorenzini, IMA Active Product Manager for Capsule Filling, will held the presentation “Filling of Hard Shell Capsules and Packaging Aspects of Multiparticulate Systems”.

Hard shell capsules are one of the most common methods to administer multiparticulates. Indeed a number of different filling systems have been developed and are currently available, allowing precise dosing of multiparticulates, alone or in combinations with powders or other forms. All components are dosed separately using standard filling unit, ensuring a robust and reproducible process. In addition, current developments in terms of process analytical technology systems allow for precise checking of the filling process, including feedback on machine working parameters, to keep the final product within the desired specifications.
