OverviewSTERI LIF3 is a fully automatic fill–finish machine combining filling, stoppering and capping operations for nested (RTU) syringes, vials and cartridges. Designed for small-batch flexibility, the system uses robotic arms within isolator-barrier architecture and single-use disposables to preserve sterility while minimising footprint.
Key highlights- High yield — precise volumetric filling to maximise product yield.
- 100% IPC — 100% and statistical in-process control (IPC) at full speed.
- Multiple dosing — several dosing options, up to 1,200 pcs/h.
- Easy upgrade — supports automated upstream de-bagging and de-lidding integration.
- Capping — integrated capping station for vials, segregated from filling/stoppering to prevent cross-contamination.
- Brushless technology — brushless drive for motion control.
- Sanitisation compatible — compatible with H2O2 sanitisation protocols.
- Zero cross-contamination risk — segregated capping area and isolator barrier design.
Flexible operationClosed robotic filling provides repeatable results and fast changeovers between container formats. Robotic arms enable precise handling of nested components and simplify format changes for varying small-batch production runs.
