Aseptic Powder Dispensing and Blending System

Project Overview – CPS prepared a system specification and subsequent proposal through a series of eight interviews with the client for a fully automated system to dispense sterile antibiotic powders from aluminum shipping cans, mill, blend and feed these powders into vial filling equipment.  The system includes VHP system a to bio-decontaminate the system to and aluminum shipping cans prior to dispensing. The cans are automatically de-lidded by a sterile duty robot located inside the isolator. The system operates through a SCADA system compliant with FDA 21CFR Part 11 for electronic signatures and records.  Performance goals of the system are two batches per day of 22 to 26 cans of product per batch with operator intervention only to load and unload cans from the system and to transport IBC of the processed product to the respective vial filler.
