STERILIZATION TUNNELS Pharmaceutical plant engineering at its best Portfolio As a long-standing partner of system providers, Wallstein has been producing various series of sterilization tunnels for the pharmaceutical industry for more than two decades. They are used to free glass containers for liquid or powdered pharmaceuticals (e.g. ampoules, cartridges or bottles) from microorganisms and pyrogens prior to filling and packaging. This is done by dry and heat sterilization according to the laminar flow principle. A dry, hot air stream is guided in such a way that it flows vertically downwards onto the sterilization objects with a laminar profile, thus thermally killing or inactivating the microorganisms and pyrogens. To achieve the desired biological effect, it is essential to ensure a defined temperature profile at the sterilization object within the defined time. Since this process places particularly high demands on reliability and hygiene, a sterilization tunnel must be manufactured with great precision and cleanliness. This is the only way to integrate it precisely and reliably into the entire filling and packaging line. Therefore, Wallstein‘s customers expect first-class execution of the design, manufacturing and assembly work. Regular awards for adherence to delivery dates, quality, and pricing as well as the classification as an A-supplier by one of the world‘s most renowned suppliers of filling and packaging technology confirm Wallstein‘s competence in this field.

The sterilization tunnels manufactured by Wallstein according to customer specifications are based on a modular construction system. They are made of stainless steel and consist of three main assemblies connected in series: infeed, heating section and cooling section. Depending on the size of the glass containers to be treated and the target throughput, the tunnels are designed with one, two, three or even more heating and cooling sections. The sterilization tunnel is always preceded by a cleaning machine and followed by a filling and packaging machine. Sterilization tunnel for pharma factory...
