Functional highlights

  • High pull-off speeds (max. 130 mm/s)
  • High positioning accuracy (0.05 mm)
  • Integrated overrunning clutch that compensates for motor ramp-up and enables constant pull-off speeds

Infrastructure process from conception to operation
 

•  Pulling device for needle shields of pre-filled syringes

•  Pulling speeds up to 130 mm/s

•  High positioning accuracy 0.05 mm 

•  Constant pull-off speed due to overrunning clutch

•  Easy syringe exchange

Figure 1: Concept of the pulling device

•  Overrunning clutch, which prevents the needle shield from being pulled off during motor ramp-up 

•  Optimised design for quick syringe exchange

•  CAD simulation of the installation position at the beam line
