PLURAL-MODE AUTOMATIC MEDICAMENT PACKAGING SYSTEM
A plural-mode automatic medicament packaging system. In embodiments, the system may include an automatic dispensing machine including an automatic medicament dispensing unit and may further include pouch packaging and blister package packaging units. The medicament dispensing unit may include one or more storage and dispensing units which store and dispense medicaments. Medicaments output from the medicament dispensing unit may be packaged in a pouch package by the pouch packaging unit. Alternatively, a diverter may direct medicaments output from the medicament dispensing unit to the pouch package packaging unit for packaging in a blister package. A single automatic medicament packaging system can package medicaments in different types of packaging providing a pharmacy with the opportunity to package medicaments in the form of packaging most appropriate to meet patient needs.
METHOD FOR STORING COOLING AGENTS
The invention relates to a method for the storage of cooling agents without caking, characterized in that the latter are filled into standard packages having a maximum capacity of 25 l, with the proviso that (a) the packages are filled to 50% maximum, and (b) the amount filled into the package does not exceed 10 kg.

MANIFOLD ASSEMBLY FOR RESIN INFUSION AND INJECTION
A manifold for resin application, infusion, and/or injection is provided. The manifold comprises at least one inlet and a plurality of outlets. At least one outlet of the manifold comprises a valve that is operable to selectively dispense or terminate a flow of a resin from the outlet, and wherein the resin is supplied through the at least one inlet.
Capsule filling machine for filling two-piece capsules, and method for filling two-piece capsules
The disclosure relates to a capsule filling machine for filling two-piece capsules that each include a capsule upper part and a capsule lower part. The capsule filling machine includes a measuring device, the measuring device including a capacitive measuring system. The measuring device is downstream of the closing station. The capacitive measuring system includes a measuring section, along which the mass of the filled, closed capsule can be measured via the capacitive measuring system. The measuring device includes a guide device for the closed capsule, the guide device being configured to convey the filled, closed capsule from the capsule segment to the measuring section of the capacitive measuring system.
