Rommelag Engineering brings latest Cosmetic Inspection technology to PACKEXPO Chicago

Waiblingen, Germany: – Advanced aseptic liquid filling and bottling specialist Rommelag ENGINEERING will present its latest high speed Cosmetic Inspection solution when it appears at one of America’s leading pharma industry events, the annual PACKEXPO show in Chicago.

Rommelag is a regular exhibitor at PACKEXPO, showcasing its ENGINEERING division’s container manufacturing, filling and inspection offerings.

Limitless container choice

For 2018, Rommelag will be at stand W-945 at Chicago’s McCormick Place convention center, where its ENGINEERING division will display different samples of bottelpack containers, including LVP’s and injectables, produced from its range of sophisticated bottelpack machines like the bp430. Combined with Rommelag’s bottelpack BFS aseptic filling system, the customer is able to construct an almost limitless variety of container designs in polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP).

Engineering will also display a variety of Inspection Systems that can proof and test BFS containers for cosmetic defects, leaks or particles.

Ultra-fast cosmetic inspection

“With Rommelag’s Cosmetic Inspection system we provide our customers the highest level of control and inspection available,” commented Rommelag Marketing Director, Andreas Häussner.

“The Cosmetic Inspection machine will reliably and consistently detect any formation defects, surface impurities, such as spots, discoloration, imbedded particles, and printing flaws. Along with our inline Particle Inspection system for automated particle inspection in injectable drug products and our High Voltage Leak Detection (HVLD) system for high speed automated leakage inspection in BFS ampoules and vials, the Cosmetic Inspection machine will consistently outperform human visual inspection,” added Mr. Häussner.

Combined aseptic filling and sealing

In addition, ENGINEERING offers in-depth information on After-sales Services and digitization solutions for preventive and predictive maintenance as well as Pharma Services for Qualification and Validation support of BFS-Equipment.

”Anyone interested in filling liquids or semisolids for pharma applications will want to see how we can enable aseptic production, filling, sealing and inspection of containers in one combined and integrated production cycle,” said Andreas Häussner.
