Pure performance, clean containers
Vega 400 is a rotary external washer designed to decontaminate the external surface
of ampoules and small glass vials after the filling and closing process.
The decontamination process can be carried out using water or by adding to the
water a dedicated washing media in case of toxic products, in order to avoid any
risk of contamination.
Vega 400 is the ideal solution for high-speed requirements and can be supplied in line
with filling and closing machines.

VEGA 400 Highlights
1.
Rounded corners inside the processing area improving water drainage and machine cleanability.
2.
Complete separation between process and mechanical areas by means of special seals.
3.
Segregated washing circuits.
4.
Reduced machine footprint to save space in the production area: drives and washing circuit housed in the machine frame.
5.
Easy access to all machine areas.
6.
Simple mechanical drives with low maintenance time impact.
7.
Machines can be pre-arranged with RABS (Restricted Access Barrier System) or installed within an isolator enclosure.
8.
Siemens PLC and HMI ensuring repeatability and safety of the whole process.
The water supply system has been designed to avoid cross contamination between containers and machine. The steady water flow ensures the separation of the contamination agent and its dragging towards the drainage point.
