Compression Blister Development Platform

Forming part of 3P innovation’s Explore Range, this development platform compresses pellets and seals them within a blister strip. Used predominantly for dry powder inhalers (DPIs), the ultra-compact filler fits on your lab benchtop.


Scalable

The fundamental process has been designed with scalability in mind; and is scalable from lab-scale to high-speed commercial production (up to 7200 doses/min).

Accurate

Precision-adjusted dose weights minimise product usage and de-risk your clinical process.

Clean

Clean filling and ejection process which prevents contamination of web (avoiding downstream issues with sealing/peel force).

Optimised compression

Of pellets to enhance aerosolisation and maximise emitted dose.

Compliant

Gain confidence that your process can produce products which comply with the device CQAs (Critical quality attributes).

Proven performance with Magnesium stearate based powders

 

How does the compaction technology work?

1. Prepped powder is levelled off with a doctor blade.

2. Upper pin is lowered down towards the dosing plate.

3. Upper pin meets the powder and partially compacts it into a pellet.

4. Lower pin is removed, blister strip slides into place.

5. Powder is pushed into the blister strip.

Scalable for total lifecycle support
