Onion Skin Ampoule Filling Machine Process Operation


The sterilized ampoule tray directly loaded in to slant hopper of the unit. The Synchronized star wheel delivers ampoules one by one on moving eccentric ampoule rack in single/two/four/six.
During the stoppage of rack sequentially pre-gassing, filling, post gassing, pre heating and final sealing is achieved. Duly filled sealed ampoules then collected on collection tray automatically without hand touch.

The machine performs the following operations


  • Ampoule feeding by in-feed hopper, star wheel and ampoules transfer into transport rack.
  • Two ampoules advanced per machine stroke.
  • Centering of ampoules necks during pre-heating, post heating, gas flushing and liquid filling.
  • Rotation of ampoules neck in the pre- heating and heating station.
