    摘要: A device (1) for moving a group of containers (A) for pharmaceutical or biotechnological use, between chambers (11, 12) with a controlled atmosphere comprising a support structure (7), supports (2) configured to accommodate containers (A) with an exposed part (B), a guide (3) for guiding the supports (2), rotationally coupled to the support structure (7), first rotating means (4) of the guide (3) and movement means (5) of the supports along the guide (3). The guide (3) rotates to locate the exposed parts (B) of the containers (A) in one of the chambers (11, 12) and the movement means (5) vary the distances (D) between the supports (2), preferably by means of a main body (51) which is rotationally coupled to the guide (3) and which comprises an external surface (52) on which tracks are formed (53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60). Also described are an apparatus (100) and a method for producing pharmaceutical or biotechnological articles.

    摘要: A process of packaging includes providing a bottom support, providing a top film, and forming a closed chamber where a portion of the bottom support, a product and a portion of the top film are housed. The further includes sealing the portion of the bottom support to the portion of the top film along a sealing band circumscribing the product to sealingly house the product in a volume and forming one or more hollow structures by sealing a part of the portion of the top film to a part of the portion of the bottom support at one or more selected seal zones. Before forming the hollow structure, the part of the portion of the top film and of the portion of the bottom support destined to form the hollow structure are maintained separate at a distance the one from the other.

    摘要: A method for operating a sealing station of a packaging machine, wherein the method may include one or more of the following steps: filling a packing volume of a package with a gas to create a desired atmosphere to a preset gassing target pressure for a finished package, wherein the packaging volume may be defined by a lower and an upper packaging material; discharging a partial amount of the gas introduced into the packaging volume from the packaging volume into a collection volume while retaining the packaging volume generated by the preceding filling, which reduces the pressure within the packaging volume; and reducing the packaging volume by moving the upper packaging material to an end position that corresponds to a desired appearance such that the pressure inside the package increases again to near the gassing target pressure. A sealing station that performs this method is also described.
