Buffer Dilution Requires Low Shear, Low Pulsation and Stable, Accurate Flow Rates

Four-piston diaphragm pumps, pump controllers and flow sensors/meters from PSG® Biotech are the preferred choice for ensuring a successful buffer dilution operation, resulting in the production of biologics that are safe and efficient for human administration.

Our Solutions for Fill and Finish

PSG Biotech is proud to offer best-in-class pumps, flow sensors, meters and flow controls that are engineered to reliably and safely transfer and precisely meter critical biologic liquids handled during fill-and-finish processes.

Importance of Fill and Finish in the Pharma Industry

The fill-and-finish stage is a crucial part of the biopharmaceutical manufacturing process. It involves the precise filling of vials, syringes or other single-use containers with biologic-liquid products, followed by the finishing steps, such as sealing and labeling. This stage is vital for ensuring the efficacy, safety and sterility of the final product, making the choice of equipment and controls critically important.

Key Operational Variables in Fill and Finish

Our solutions are designed to address two significant operational variables in the fill-and-finish process:

1. Stable & Accurate Flow Rates
Consistent and precise flow rates are essential to maintain the integrity of biologic liquids and ensure uniformity in each dose. Our Quattroflow® pumps deliver the required precision , thus minimizing the risk of overfill or underfill , which can lead to product waste or regulatory issues . Accurate flow rates are especially crucial when dealing with active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), where even minor deviations can impact the product’s efficacy and safety.

2. Low Spallation
Spallation, the shedding of particles from surfaces in contact with the biologic liquids, can contaminate the product and compromise its safety. Our single-use Quattroflow (QF and QB) pumps are built to minimize spallation , ensuring that the biologic liquids remain uncontaminated and pure throughout the process. This is particularly important in fill-and-finish operations, where maintaining the sterility and purity of the product is paramount.

Achieving Peak Performance

Only when these variables—stable and accurate flow rates and low spallation—are properly achieved and maintained will the fill-and-finish process realize its peak performance level. Our state-of-the-art technology and robust design ensure that these critical parameters are met, providing reliable and high-quality results for pharmaceutical production.

By integrating our advanced fill-and-finish solutions into your processes, you can enhance the efficiency, consistency and quality of your biopharmaceutical production, ensuring that your products meet the highest standards of purity and potency. This not only improves operational efficiency, but also ensures compliance with regulatory requirements and enhances patient safety.

Application-Specific Solutions

Fill-and-Finish Systems:
Our fill-and-finish systems are designed to handle various types of biologic liquids, including monoclonal antibodies, vaccines and therapeutic proteins. These systems ensure precise control over the filling process, enhancing the efficiency and reliability of the entire production process.

API Handling:
Accurate fill and finish is critical when handling APIs, which are the essential components of pharmaceutical products. Precise metering and filling ensure that each container receives the correct dosage of the API, which is vital for maintaining the potency and efficacy of the final product. Our solutions ensure that APIs are filled accurately and consistently, which is crucial for regulatory compliance and patient safety.

Sterile Filling:
In sterile filling processes, such as those used for injectable drugs, maintaining the sterility of the product is paramount. Our fill-and-finish systems are designed to operate in aseptic environments, ensuring that the biologic liquids are transferred and metered without contamination. This is especially important for products that are administered directly to patients, where sterility is critical.

Vial, Ampoule and Syringe Filling:
For applications involving the filling of vials and syringes, our fill-and-finish solutions provide the precision and reliability needed to ensure uniform doses. This reduces the risk of dosing errors and enhances the safety and efficacy of the final product. Our single-use Quattroflow (QF and QB) pumps are particularly well suited for these applications, offering the smooth and consistent flow rates that are essential for accurate filling.

Flexible Batch Processing:
For batch processing applications , our fill-and-finish systems offer the flexibility and precision needed to fill containers on demand. This reduces the need for large intermediate storage tanks and simplifies the overall production process. The ability to fill in real time also enhances process efficiency and reduces the risk of contamination.
