Incoming vial trays enter machine on a conveyor and are automatically indexed forward
Preservative automatically dispensed into the vial as required
Machine automatically dispenses incoming caps, loaded into hopper from top of the machine, into vibratory feeder allowing the caps to traverse into the capping device
Vials remain in their tray during the entire process
Auto adjusting – Machine can support two different vial heights
Caps placed onto the vials one row at a time
Capped vial trays are stacked and then indexed out of the machine and onto the exit conveyor for removal

Operator Savings
Easy to use
Robot takes over all the monotonous manual tasks
Easy to operate
Reduces operator costs by >50%. One operator can handle up to 3 lines
Automation helps increase throughput per line with stricter procedures
Efficient output
Quality Assurance
Consistent measurements with reliable results with repeatable automated processes
Pilot samples stored in separate compartment
Option of random pilot sample testing (depending on laboratory rules)
ILAS3000 presents the optional capability of alerting operators if check results are outside the user defined range
Productivity
Two drawers for sample trays allows for continuous operation
Drawers independent of one another; allows for operator to use one tray while other is being tested by the robot
