Pneumatic Conveying and Sterile Manufacturing

Sterile powder conveying is now possible with the aseptic version of the versatile PTS Powder Transfer System. This allows the user to link the process steps and run a fully closed operation in a controlled manner.

Sterility assurance is of paramount importance in aseptic manufacturing where product contamination may have severe consequences for both the producer and the end-user.

In a recent project where sterility was to be maintained throughout all working steps, the process encompassed filter dryer discharge by PTS into intermediary hoppers to feed the jet milling process and again PTS transfer into a dispensing and packing isolator, where the bags are finally welded and leave the isolator through a continuous liner system.

PTS guarantees product integrity during the transfers and is designed for SIP (sterilization-in-place).
