1 ENGINEERING DIVISION (ACM) CONVERTING MACHINES FOR GLASS AMPOULES

2 ENGINEERING DIVISION (ACM) CONVERTING MACHINES Nipro PharmaPackaging s Engineering Division (ACM) develops, assembles, and services high performance converting machines for the production of premium primary packaging made of tubular glass. With more than 30 years of experience and constant communication with our multiple Nipro PharmaPackaging plants worldwide, Nipro has established exceptional expertise and an extensive understanding of the requirements of the primary pharmaceutical packaging market. The result: a superior range of high performing converting machines. Equipped with the latest inspection systems and automated with robotic technology, our machines make possible a highly efficient and precise production of primary packaging that meets and exceeds the expectations of the pharmaceutical industry of today and tomorrow. Quality is an essential requirement and therefore our production site is ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and OHSAS certified. Conscious of the environment, we have optimized our manufacturing process to lower our ecological footprint. EXCEPTIONAL EXPERTISE More than 30 years of experience in design & production of high-end converting machines EXTENSIVE UNDERSTANDING of the requirements of glass primary packaging for the pharmaceutical industry HIGH PERFORMANCE CONVERTING MACHINES that meet the highest standards of the pharmaceutical industry, finetuned to your needs. Supported by professional installation and superior after-sales service.

3 QUALITY LEVELS CONVERTING MACHINES The process of defining the required specifications of converting machines is a complex, involved process. In order to ensure the optimal match, there must be understanding and collaboration: specific data must be exchanged, requirements discussed, and numerous parameters defined. Our Nipro Quality Levels form the perfect base to fine-tune your quality and service requirements, thereby providing you with the optimal converting machine and setup of your production. ɪnˈɡeɪdʒ : Participate / Become involved in ɪnˈhæns : Increase / Further improve engage with Nipro to first develop tailored converting machines, whereby we apply our profound expertise to provide out-of-the-box solutions, and then guide and support you with our exceptional service level to establish a high-performance production process that satisfies unmet product requirements. ɪˈneɪbl : Activate/ Make something operational enhance your converting machines by applying high-end automation and robotic technology to enhance your production efficiency and primary packaging quality to meet the highest industry requirements. enable the production of primary packaging on flexible converting machines that meet prevailing market standards. HIGH PERFORMANCE CONVERTING MACHINES YOUR REQUIREMENTS, OUR EXPERTISE, YOUR SUCCESS

4 HIGH PERFORMANCE CONVERTING MACHINES FOR GLASS AMPOULES Nipro s Engineering Division continuously brings to the world an innovative portfolio of state of the art converting machines. To meet customer and market requirements alike, these robust converting lines offer a flexible design for a highly efficient and precise production of premium quality ampoules. FLEXIBLE DESIGN Nipro s converting machines offer you compact and intelligent designs that answer to space restrictions and grant easy access for operators. The innovative modular setup allows you to select individual modules from the loading area to the packaging unit according to your needs (breaking system, identification rings, printing). Our manufacturing machines satisfy the requirements of the pharmaceutical industry by producing a wide range of ampoule models (Form: B, C, D; Fine tip). EFFICIENT & PRECISE PRODUCTION By continuously developing and applying new technologies, we offer you highly efficient converting machines that enable you to manufacture ampoules that meet the highest market standards. This approach has recently led to: Tighter tolerances of stem dimensions thanks to the advanced stem regulation device that tightly controls and adapts the forming based upon real-time values. A highly precise camera inspection system ACM Vision that enables a 100% dimensional inspection in-line, ensuring strict compliance of ampoules to defined specifications. And the newly designed robotic auto-packing machine that ensures a fast and accurate packaging process. ENHANCED LIFETIME Nipro converting machines are known for their robustness. This exceptional longevity is attributed to a careful selection of materials and parts used in the assembly process. Our continuous progress has also resulted in an intelligent design of converting machines, which translates to minimum wear and tear of materials and parts.

5 AUTOMATIC GLASS TUBE LOADER Made of two loading support areas, the automatic loader works with pneumatic actuators responsible for separating, lifting, and inserting the glass tubing in the upper crown. Automation reduces glass-to-glass contact. HEATING REGULATION DEVICE 100% in-line camera inspection of the stem diameter after forming. With each turn, heating time is adapted based on real-time data. Achieves stable forming and stem diameters within narrow tolerances. MODULAR DESIGN Allows easy modification of the machine over time. Specific modules can be added or existing ones can be substituted (Modules such as: Closing Clamp, One Point Cut, Triple Rings, Vision Inspection system). AUTO-PACKING MACHINE Robotic technology ensures a fast and efficient packing, as well as a quick changeover. Adaptation requires only three screws to be repositioned and the necessary parameters entered via touch screen. Optimized packaging operations result in minimized supervision time by the operator. ACM VISION Precise 100% in-line dimensional camera inspection. Create graphs that display a real-time overview of the production status. Deviations are also visualized in real time and corrected by the operator. The number of rejected ampoules is kept at a minimum, thus productivity increases.
