Diversity meets capability

Diagnostics are diverse: liquid, solid, powder-based, and lyophilized products that range from reagents and calibrators to buffer solutions. Each product comes with its own requirements for stability, protection, and handling. That is why precisely matched filling and packaging solutions are essential. Optima systems ensure reliable product handling: filling, dosing, closing, coating, as well as packaging and end-of-line processing – for bottles, multi cartridges, microvials, microtiter plates, and more.

Diagnostics without limits

Flexibility for your production

The diversity of diagnostic applications requires flexible solutions. Optima offers technologies for different packaging formats and batch sizes.

From suspensions to chemical and biological substances to flammable materials – whether liquid or powder-based – your products define the type of processing required.

Modular, scalable, and consistently adaptable: Optima systems are precisely tailored to your production environment. They integrate seamlessly into existing workflows, adjust to new requirements, and unlock measurable potential for increased efficiency, stable quality, and intelligent automation.

ImmuCoat Rendering
ImmuCoat

The coating platform

The ImmuCoat is a powerful, compact system for coating microtiter plates used in diagnostic test kits. It automates coating, serialization, incubation, and drying, and can be expanded modularly up to a fully integrated line. The unit is flexibly adaptable and can be connected to the OPAL software, which generates batch reports and ensures comprehensive traceability.

Diagnostic Machine Rendering
ImmuPouch

The sealing & packaging all-rounder

The ImmuPouch complements the ImmuCoat platform by securely packaging and sealing microtiter plates in three‑side‑seal pouches. This reduces costs and manual handling. The machine operates as a stand‑alone unit or integrated in a line and performs the final step of the production process. It delivers reproducible quality, full traceability, and continuous SCADA/MES documentation.

Diagnostik Rendering
ImmuFill

The compact filling system

The ImmuFill is designed for filling reagents and buffer solutions. This rotary indexing machine processes bottles, vials, and tubes with minimal format parts and easy operation. Its compact design makes it ideal for laboratories and small production areas. IPK functions, torque‑controlled capping, pick‑and‑place, and optional inline labeling ensure maximum process quality.

Rendering Flexofill
FlexoFill

The flexibility solution

The FlexoFill is a compact, modular filling platform for reagents, liquids, powders, and magnetic beads across various formats. It processes bottles, vials, tubes, and cartridges efficiently and in a space‑saving manner. Stable processes, fast format changes, and short setup times enable flexible production. Comprehensive quality monitoring ensures consistently high product quality.

Linoline Rendering
Linoline

The high-performance line

The Linoline is a high‑performance platform for processing a wide range of diagnostic formats. It fills and closes liquid, pasty, and additional product types in larger volumes, covering a broad processing range thanks to various pump systems. Rapid format changes and harmonized process steps ensure stability, transparency, and seamless documentation.

Machine for object feeding

Different packaging materials and container types require specific infeed technologies.

Our solutions include:

  • De-traying and sorting technology for a wide range of packaging configurations
  • Special designed infeed solutions for non-rigid containers
  • Interfaces to external systems
Filling
Machine for diagnostics

Filling and dosing technology depends primarily on the characteristics of your product. We configure the system for optimal performance, focusing on a design with minimal format parts, easy handling, and a compact footprint. Gentle and precise product handling is guaranteed. In-process control (IPC) and product-saving features maximize yield.

Coating
Filling process

To meet the specific requirements of microtiter plate coating, we provide advanced technologies that combine accuracy, efficiency, and flexibility. Featuring a modular and scalable design, these systems are the ideal choice for laboratories and manufacturers seeking reliable entry-level solutions or fully automated, seamlessly integrated production lines.

Closing/sealing
Vial is closed by a machine

For maximum product and process safety, we feature a range of technologies for closing/sealing your diagnostic products. For example:

  • Screw-capping
  • Snap-on and press-on
  • Stoppering and crimp-capping
  • Induction sealing
  • Foil sealing and foil contour laser cutting
Incubation/drying
