Aseptic Processing Equipment: The Power of MicroThermics' Aseptic Laboratory Fillers

 In today's health-conscious world, consumers are increasingly seeking preservative-free food and beverages with extended shelf lives. Traditional batch or hot-fill processes often result in product damage, which has led to the rise in popularity of aseptic processing with Aseptic Filling Equipment. MicroThermics, a leading manufacturer of aseptic processing equipment, offers innovative Aseptic Laboratory Fillers that enable researchers to fill beverages into consumer-style plastic bottles with unparalleled sterility assurance right in the laboratory.

How Does Our Aseptic Laboratory Filler Work?

Our Aseptic Laboratory Fillers are designed to sterilize bottles and caps, fill them with sterile products, and seal them within a sterile environment. Similar to commercial Aseptic Fillers, our linear fillers ensure optimal performance. 

The bottles enter the machine on a conveyor, where they are filled and partially covered with a vaporous sterilant before entering the sterile zone. Inside the sterile zone, a jet of hot, sterile air decontaminates the bottles, preparing them for filling. Once filled, the bottles are automatically capped with sterilized bottle caps before leaving the sterile zone and the filler.

Applications:

Laboratory Aseptic Liquid Filling Machines have a wide range of applications, including:

• Preparation of samples for taste panels and trade shows in consumer-style packages, accurately reflecting the final product.

• Conducting long-term product and package interaction studies to ensure compatibility and quality.

• Performing comprehensive shelf-life studies at ambient conditions to determine the product's durability.

• Conducting long-term physical stability studies to assess the product's integrity over time.

• Evaluating the suitability of bottles and caps for aseptic filling, ensuring optimal performance.

Supported by the same rigorous standards as our commercial Aseptic Filling Machines, our laboratory fillers provide a 4-log reduction in the pharmaceutical filling chamber and a 5-log reduction in the bottles and bottle caps. This meets the common requirements both in the USA and internationally. Additionally, our fillers enable continuous sterilization of bottles and caps, as well as filling and sealing of aseptically processed products in a sterile environment, all while recording data to prove proper operation of the processor and filler.
