MG2 equips BioDue with a filling double chamber sealing caps solution

BioDue – a manufacturing company focused on research, development, production and marketing of cosmetics, medical devices, and food supplements, both liquid and solid – partnered with MG2 to develop a project to fill dual chamber caps with powder for the subsidiary Farcoderma.

« At our factories G28/T allow us to handle the high number of powders and formulations produced daily without any issues. The flexibility of the G28/T has made it possible to handle different products on the same machine, with different filling weights and different chemical-physical characteristics. Thanks to our two G28/T BioDue produces at least one hundred references with two different types of dual chamber caps. The market for biphasic vials is one of BioDue Group’s main businesses and it is still expanding. Having high-performance and reliable machines is therefore not only necessary but it is also one of the most significant challenges we face every time we have to choose a new machine,” explains Dr. Giorgio Terzino, Plant Manager of BioDue.

G28/T is an automatic high-speed continuous-motion dosing and assembly machine, which allows the combination of up to two kinds of powders into the same cap/container. G28/T is highly utilized in the dosage of powder in dual chamber sealing caps for oral reconstituted drugs in vials.

On this type of production lines, the product must not be compacted to allow better melting in the liquid. The MG2 patented continuous rotary motion dosing technology enables the entire process to be managed with excellent results. G28/T has been therefore a commercial success for several decades, widely consolidated and reliable, the synthesis of the skills that MG2 has acquired thanks to thousands of capsule fillers installed all over the world.

It is a machine with scalable production speed: the customer can start with a machine working at 14,000 caps/hour. Then, according to increasing market demand, it is possible to double the speed to 28,000 caps/hour by adding only a few parts. Scalability is an essential feature and one of the advantages of all MG2 processing machines, since it allows you to double or in some cases even quadruple production with the same machine, in the same production clean room, without increasing the number of operators, with the same production recipe, by maintaining unchanged performances.

After little more than one year after the first installation, BioDue has acquired a second machine to meet the needs of an increasing in production.
