Pharmaceutical dispensary system offers contained, automated method of ingredient weighing and dosing

Pharmaceutical dispensary systems for the extremely accurate dispensing of active ingredients and excipients to IBCs offer a contained and completely automated method of ingredient weighing and dosing. Each ingredient to the blend can be conveyed via the Premier Pneumatics P-Series vacuum conveyor directly to the K-Tron loss-in-weight feeder for dosing into the appropriate container. Typical dosing systems include several stations, each dedicated to a specific component of the mix. The K-Tron control system can also be designed for several recipes, reflecting different batch weights of each ingredient. Active ingredients can easily be contained simply by integrating active and passive split butterfly valves on the ingredient pickup and discharge points.
