Vacuum & Pressure Solutions for the Pharmaceutical & Laboratory Industry

In the highly regulated field of pharmaceuticals, vacuum and pressure technologies play a significant role in maintaining the necessary sterility throughout the production process. These pumps help to ensure that each product meets the rigorous hygiene standards demanded by the industry. Moreover, these pumps are essential in the delicate drying processes required for medication stability. They also offer energy-efficient material transfer solutions that reflect the pharmaceutical industry's commitment to sustainability. These pumps are indispensable tools for maintaining quality and control.

Built for reliability, Republic Manufacturing offers air knife systems, central vacuum systems, and regenerative blowers and pumps for the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries. Air knife systems are tailored to provide the exact air flow and pressure for blow-off, dust removal, moisture removal, or coating leveling. Central Vacuum Systems utilize dry rotary-vane, oil-lubricated, and rotary claw pumps to provide energy-efficient vacuum solutions with zero downtime. Regenerative blowers are robust and efficient solutions for several vacuum and pressure applications.

Air knife systems are widely used in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries for various applications. These systems come with different options such as HEPA filtration, wash down motors, stainless steel air knives, nozzles, accessories, and static elimination bars. Applications include:

• Drying product packaging prior to ink jet coding or labeling
• Drying of vials, syringes, sterile packs, pouches, tubes, trays, crates, and pallets
• Drying of mixing and storage tanks
• Drying under the cap or lid
• Debris removal
• Moisture removal
• Dust removal
• Conveyor belt blow-off
• Leveling coating on caplets

Central vacuum systems offer a resilient and scalable solution for pharmaceutical operations, minimizing downtime and simplifying maintenance for cost and time efficiency. Utilizing oil-lubricated pumps, dry-running pumps, or claw pumps, applications include:

• Degassing
• Fume extraction
• Encapsulation
• Pick & place
• Central vacuum systems

Regenerative blowers are highly valued in the pharmaceutical industry for their ability to deliver clean, non-pulsating airflow, essential for maintaining sterile environments. Their reliability and low maintenance make them a cost-efficient solution for continuous operation settings. Applications include:

• Pneumatic conveying
• Vacuum holding
• Encapsulation
• Pick & place
