Designing out contamination– 28-Mar-2013

Effective microbiological control is key to ensuring product safety, quality and image. In the event of a contamination incident the advice is to focus on looking for changes in raw material specs, equipment design failure, formulation or process error. While cleaning and sanitisation systems are crucial, preventative measures such as careful design of pipework and operation of supporting services, such as vacuum and vent systems, can radically reduce the risk of microbiological contamination

Squeeze more value out of the tube– 27-Jun-2012

When dispensing concentrated, caustic and costly chemicals with peristaltic pumps used in industrial cleaning applications, it is imperative to use high-performance pump tubing solutions. The first step is to know which performance properties to look for in industrial cleaning peristaltic pump and transfer tubing; equally important is how to properly maintain chemical dispensing systems to improve overall operating efficiency. High chemical resistance, pressure rating for chemical transfer, flexibility and maintaining chemical purity are key factors to consider.

Valves fit for LIFE– 1-Jun-2012

Multi-port Robolux valves enable compact and complex valve interfaces to be achieved in the most restricted installation space, and have practically no dead flow zone, which makes both cleaning and sterilisation much easier and faster, and also enables quicker changeover for the manufacture of different product types. The valves have been used in a major installation at B. Braun Melsungen's LIFE Nutrition plant

Filling solution for animal vaccines– 21-Dec-2011

A Flexicon PD12P peristaltic dispensing pump is at the centre of a sterile vial filling system for the processing of animal vaccines. A customised flange was engineered to keep the pump drive and control panel outside the isolator, with only the pumphead sited within it. The peristaltic filling action means that the product is in contact only with the sterile tubing and the filling nozzle.

Specifying conveyors– 21-Dec-2011

Initial cost, total cost of ownership, maintenance needs, noise levels, energy consumption, flexibility and cleanroom classification must all be considered when choosing a conveyor for use in a cleanroom. Reconfigurable modular conveyors offer the flexibility of easily changing length and angle configurations as well as easy adaptation of cleanroom accessories and components such as HEPA filters, tunnel enclosures, ionisers and hermetically sealed entry/exit gates. But the most critical requirement is a conveyor’s cleanroom classification.
