Aerosol Manufacturing, Filling
and Sealing Operations
Macter Aerosol Manufacturing, Filling and Sealing Operations consists of a Pamasol
high speed 6 head fully automatic filling and sealing machine capable of doing
110 cans per minute. Manufacturing is performed in a fully automatic, computer
controlled and integrated manufacturing system comprising of a 300 kg capacity
jacketed and automated vessel. Mixing, filtration of product and gases, addition
of actives and non actives, weight, temperature and pressure control and transfer
of product to the filling machine is all controlled and monitored through dual
computer system.
Once the product is manufactured and QC passed, it is filled through
the Pamasol filling machine. This machine first descrambles the
cans, blow cleans them, fills
with the product and seals with the metered dose valves. Once sealed, the
propellant is added with the special gassing heads. The filled
cans then pass through the
on-line check weigher which weighs each can for uniformity of filled volume.
Any cans which may be above or below the predetermined weight limit are automatically
rejected.
The filling and manufacturing rooms are both ISO class 6 and the
filling operations under the laminar flow hood are performed at
ISO class 5. Humidity, air differential
pressures and the temperatures of these rooms are also strictly monitored
and controlled. This department has been setup at a cost of more
than US$ 1.0 million.
