Automatic loading and unloading systems for freeze dryers are key components in industrial processes. POLARIS ensures the vials are handled safely and efficiently without altering drug properties.

Loading and unloading made safe and effective.

POLARIS is a compact and fixed system for automatic loading and unloading of vials, in and out of freeze dryers, and can be supplied in different sizes according to freeze dryer shelves.

Vial loading operations are performed at a constant shelf level and can be done in three different ways:

  • Row by row accumulation, suitable for loading on shelves with an ambient temperature.
  • Partial pack at leading edge on the shelf, suitable for loading on shelves with a cold temperature (4 to 8 °C)..
  • Partial pack directly into final position on the shelf, suitable for loading on shelves with a cold temperature (≤0°C).

POLARIS can be installed in-line with an upstream liquid-filling and stoppering machine and with a downstream capping machine.
