Automatic Ampoule Sticker Labeling Machine- South Africa

Introduction: Tailored Labeling Solutions for South Africa

In the growing pharmaceutical, injectable, and vial-based product sectors of South Africa—centred around Johannesburg, Durban, Cape Town, Pretoria, and beyond—it’s essential to deploy equipment that ensures both precision and efficiency. Technogen Enterprise introduces its Automatic Ampoule Sticker Labeling Machines (models TGASAL‑250 and TGASAL‑400) engineered to meet the demands of high-speed, high-accuracy labeling in compliance with global GMP standards.

Designed for South African Production Environments

From the pharmaceutical clusters in Centurion and Midrand to injectable manufacturing units in Durban and Cape Town, our machines enable:

• High throughput capacity: Up to 450 ampoules per minute for fast-moving operations in major metros.

• Vertical rotary design: Ideal for sterile environments and precise alignment in injectable-focused facilities.

• Easy integration in controlled clean rooms and production lines within pharmaceutical parks.

Key Advantages for South African Buyers

✅ Ultra‑High Production Rates

• TGASAL‑250: Up to 250 ampoules/min

• TGASAL‑400: Up to 400 ampoules/min

These speeds are perfect for high-volume production environments such as those in pharmaceutical and biotech clusters in Gauteng and KwaZulu‑Natal.

✅ Vertical Rotary System

Ampoules are labeled in a vertical position, enhancing accuracy and hygiene—ideal for sterile injectable environments in major life-science hubs.

✅ Servomotor-Driven Dispensing

Powered by high-precision servo motors (such as Panasonic equivalents), controlled by advanced PLC systems, enabling ±1 mm accuracy even at high speed.

✅ Wrap‑Around & Partial Labeling

Supports complete or partial label wrap, suitable for regulatory labeling, instructional labels, or dosage information on ampoules or vials.

✅ Self-Adhesive Label Application

Designed for pressure-sensitive labels with auto length detection to minimize errors and improve operational uptime.

State-of-the-Art Automation & Control

• Advanced PLC & Touch-screen HMI
  Intuitive interface easily programmable in English, with scope for localization to Afrikaans or Zulu for multilingual manufacturing teams.

• Sensors for Seamless Operation

  • Fork Gap Sensor: Ensures consistent gaps between labels

  • Fibre Optic Bottle Sensor: Detects ampoules in real-time

  • Label Roll Empty & Missing Label Stop: Prevents wastage and defective output

• Optional Vision & OCR/OCV Modules

  • Validate barcodes, pharma codes, batch numbers, manufacturing and expiry dates.

  • Suitable for 21 CFR Part 11 compliance in regulated environments.

• Printer Integration
  Mount an onboard thermal ink-jet printer for real-time batch coding of expiry dates, price, etc., directly on the label during application.

Construction & Hygiene Compliance

• Stainless Steel 304 Fabrication
  Machine body, door, and internal tray systems are made from SS304—resistant to corrosion in humid coastal areas like Durban, ideal for cleanroom settings.

• Vertical Tray Loading & Unloading
  Ampoules feed into and exit from the machine via stainless steel trays, maintaining sterile orientation throughout the process.

• Tool-less Guide Rails & No-Change Parts for Labels
  Simplifies setup and reduces downtime during production shifts and label changes.

Add-On Features for Enhanced Safety & Traceability

• Missing Label Detection & Auto Stop: Minimises rejects and ensures quality control

• Transparent Label Sensor: Especially beneficial when working with clear labels used in pharmaceutical formats

• Safety Cabinet: Optional toughened glass or acrylic enclosure to protect operators in sterile environments

• Tower Light Indicators: Visual status signals for production visibility

• Vacuum or Pneumatic Rejection: Automatically eject missing or mislabelled ampoules

• OCR/OCV Capability: Ensure label text accuracy and pharma regulatory compliance

• 21 CFR Part 11 Compliance: Optional data logging and audit trail for batch records
