Drum Transfer System

High-Containment Pharmaceutical Drum Transfer System

Handling heavy drums containing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipients presents significant ergonomic and contamination risks. Our advanced Drum Transfer System provides a highly secure, convenient solution for lifting, transferring, and subdividing hazardous powders. Designed to safely feed critical downstream equipment such as mills, reactors, vessels, and mixers, this technology reliably achieves nanogram-level OEB5 containment, protecting both your operators and your high-value products.

Ergonomic Pneumatic Handling

Engineered to eliminate the physical strain and safety hazards associated with manual drum lifting:

  • Floor-Level Loading: Drums can be easily loaded onto the drum tipper directly from the cleanroom floor, requiring minimal operator exertion.
  • Secure Pneumatic Drive: An adjustable stainless-steel belt securely locks the drum into the cradle. A powerful, air-pressure-driven pneumatic system then safely lifts and swings the drum into an optimized horizontal position to connect with the downstream process.
  • Versatile Configurations: Available in both mobile and fixed-design layouts to perfectly suit your facility's footprint. For volatile environments, the system can be fully executed in ATEX-compliant configurations
  • Safety Handling of Heavy Drums
  • Available in Mobile of Fixed Design
  • Powered with Air Pressure.

Uncompromising OEB5 Contamination Control

  • SMEPAC Compliant: Built on proven industry applications, the system's particulate containment performance strictly follows the ISPE’s SMEPAC (Standardised Measurement of Equipment Particulate Airborne Concentration) guidelines.
  • Closed-System Docking: Ensures maximum consistency and cleanliness by allowing operators to remove the drum's lid only after securely docking the connecting liner. This eliminates rigid hardware interfaces and prevents airborne exposure.
  • High-Clarity Visibility: Utilizes high-clarity flexible films that provide operators with an excellent, unobstructed vantage point to monitor the powder flow and ensure complete discharge, drastically reducing product waste.
