The present invention relates to a recognition system for recognizing containers to be filled with a given type of product, wherein the containers are equipped with a device for closing and opening the mouth through which the product to be introduced into the container is designed to pass. The closing and opening device is equipped with NFC electronic identification means. A corresponding reading and writing device for reading and writing said NFC electronic identification means is provided in the station for filling of the container and, in view of accommodating the container and the device for closing and opening its mouth, such station is conformed with at least the area configured to receive the device for closing and opening the mouth having a three-dimensional shape that mates the three-dimensional shape that the closing and opening device assumes when it is open to allow the container to be filled and/or emptied through the mouth.

A container manufacturing method includes: a liquid discharge step in which a predetermined amount of liquid (L) in the container (C) is discharged to the outside by supplying pressurized air from air holes (13) provided in a blow molding mold (11) to a cavity (12) and pushing an outer surface of the container (C) after molding by the air; and a headspace forming step in which a headspace (HS) is formed in the container (C) by separating a filling nozzle (22) from a mouth portion (Ca) of the container (C) in a state in which a predetermined amount of liquid (L) is discharged to the outside.

Disclosed herein are novel procedures, systems and excipient solutions for in situ provision of a contrast media at a user defined concentrations. An automated procedure according to embodiments of the current invention provides increased user safety, flexibility and user friendliness.

A table top appliance rapidly fills a pouch through some mechanical actuation or automation by inserting the pouch into the appliance and the machine fills the pouch. One embodiment of the food pouch filling station may be a mechanical version that includes a method to pump or push the contents of the container into the pouch. A second embodiment of the food pouch filling station may be an electric pump version that fills pouches and may have the option of controlling the amount of food dispensed. The food pouch filling station may also include a valve that connects to the pouch to control the flow to the pouch.
