Medical and Pharmaceutical Case History
Fresenius Kabi, a global healthcare company that specialises in lifesaving medicines and technologies, approaches Monk Conveyors to design and install a new vial conveyor.
Our vial handling system used MODU System conveyors to feed small pharmaceutical vials to a filling and packing area. MODU conveyors are based on a close-fitting flexible chain with the ability travel along straights or into tight curves.
The vial handling system design included adjustable guide rails to take a range of medical product sizes. A moveable conveyor gate was also included allowing access for staff. The gate automatically stopped the medical conveyors when opened to avoid injury or damage to products.
All surfaces were designed for easy cleaning. The project included full mechanical and electrical installations, followed by training and handover to the customer.
