Provided are a method and an apparatus for extruding into a tube and filling the tube at a high speed and simultaneously sealing the tube. Specifically provided is a method for producing a polymer tube, containing a liquid therein and being sealed at constant intervals, the method including an extrusion step of continuously melt-extruding a polymer material through a die into at least one tube, while feeding a liquid into the tube to obtain at least one liquid-containing tube; and sealing step of discontinuously pressing the at least one liquid-containing tube between a pair of pressurizing members at constant intervals to cause pressure-bonding before the tube solidifies, while continuously taking up the extruded tube.

An apparatus for liquid medication bottle-splitting is provided. The apparatus includes: a first dispensing section comprising a funnel-shaped hollow body with a wide inlet opening tapering to a narrow outlet; a second dispensing section comprising a second funnel-shaped hollow body with a second wide inlet opening tapering to a second narrow outlet; and a crossover channel connecting the first dispensing section to the second dispensing section, the crossover channel including a crossover opening extending a length of the crossover channel, and the crossover channel being angled to evenly distribute a flow of liquid medication into at least a first split portion in the first dispensing section and a second split portion in the second dispensing section; the first dispensing section adapted to dispense the first split portion, and the second dispensing section adapted to dispense the second split portion.

One aspect of the present disclosure is an apparatus for manufacturing cosmetic containing: a main body providing a space for manufacturing cosmetic; a mixing vessel that can store cosmetic materials and a parts supply unit providing components including a plurality of cosmetic containers; a cosmetic material supply unit that can store cosmetic materials and then discharge cosmetic materials to the mixing vessel; a transfer unit that can transfer the mixing vessel and the components including the cosmetic container; and a control unit that can control the movement of the transfer unit in order to simultaneously assemble a plurality of cosmetic containers from the mixing vessel and the components.

Provided is a weighing and packaging system including: a weighing unit which weighs and sequentially discharges articles; a discharge chute through which the articles discharged from the weighing unit pass; a foreign matter detecting unit which detects the foreign matter contained in the article passing through the discharge chute; a memory unit which stores quality information pertaining to the quality of the article based on a detection result of the foreign matter detecting unit; and a control unit which controls the memory unit, in which in a case where the foreign matter is detected by the foreign matter detecting unit with respect to the N.sup.th (N is an integer of 2 or more) article discharged from the weighing unit, the control unit controls the memory unit to forcibly store the quality information of the (N−1).sup.th article discharged from the weighing unit as a poor quality.

An apparatus for making a canned food product in a can, the food product including a first composition and a second composition, and the apparatus includes a filling head including a first channel and a second channel for respectively directing the first composition and the second composition into the can. A first supply assembly includes a first supply container containing the first composition, and the first supply container is connected to the first channel; and a second supply assembly. The second supply assembly includes a second supply container containing the second composition; a dosing piston connected to the second supply container through a third channel; a hose connecting the dosing piston to the second channel; and one or more rotary valves between the dosing piston and the filling head.

A system for splitting a fluid includes a source support configured to support a source container and a satellite support configured to support a satellite container fluidly connected to the source container. A weight scale is associated with each of the supports. The system also includes a clamp system and a controller. The controller determines a plurality of possible distributions of the fluid between the source container and the satellite container based at least in part on the concentration or amount of said constituent and the combined weight measured by each weight scale, then controls the clamp system to selectively allow and prevent fluid flow from the source container to the satellite container so as to distribute the fluid between the source container and the satellite container according to one of the distributions, with at least one of the possible distributions being an uneven distribution of the fluid.

A fluid filling apparatus for filling containers with a fluid is provided. An ultrasonic frequency is used to vibrate a filling nozzle between successive container filling cycles. The vibrations break a liquid string filament formed at a discharge end of the filling nozzle at the end of each filling cycle. Methods and a fluid filling nozzle for filling containers with a fluid are also provided.

A system for contained sterile/aseptic transfer of materials comprises a coupler assembly (6) including an active valve assembly (9) having an active valve and docking part and a passive valve assembly (7) which comprises a passive valve and a complimentary docking part, the two docking parts enabling the two valve assemblies to be secured together in a first position with a void formed between the two facing surfaces of the closed valves. A sterilisation device (20) including a UV emitter assembly is arranged to emit UV light into the void such that the exposed outer surfaces of at least the passive valve and active valve are exposed to UV light emitted by the emitter assembly after the two docking parts are secured together in the first position, and prior to moving of the passive/active valve to a second position where material may transfer through the opened valves.

A soft capsule manufacturing apparatus for controlling an injection amount, an injection interval and/or an injection rate of core solution by an injection controller, wherein the operation of the injection controller is automatically adjusted and controlled by a control panel, after processing the signal from the detection sensor for checking the injection status.

The present disclosure is directed to a big-bag transfer station for API seed crystals. The transfer station may permit the filling of smaller containers, such as bags or pouches, from a large container, such as a big bag. The transfer station may permit the transfer without contaminating the atmosphere of the room in which the station is housed. Additionally, the transfer station may limit cross-contamination between filling cycles by employing single-use liners.
