Microcell™ vial filler
Closed gloveless robotic isolator for small-batch pharmaceutical vial filling
Overview
Enable small-batch flexibility and standardized manufacturing with this closed robotic isolator for pharmaceutical vial filling. Whether you’re making personalized medicines or clinical trial material, it’s built for agility and quick changeover.
- Flexible, scalable solution. Well-suited to filling a variety of biologics. Scale out by adding vial fillers or scale up with the SA25 aseptic filling system for vials, syringes, and cartridges.
- Standardized design. Supports quick delivery, time to good manufacturing practices (GMP) production, and run start-up. Provides consistency and repeatability in a regulatory-friendly automated system.
- Minimized human involvement. All of the usual reasons for human intervention have been designed out of the aseptic process.
- Strong support ecosystem. With exclusive user group and supporting services that maximize uptime, speed up qualification, and help users navigate regulatory interactions including GMP inspections.
The Microcell™ vial filler can fill up to 4 different drug products in an 8 h shift. Single-use consumables and a fast 15 min decontamination cycle reduce fill and changeover times, helping you make more therapeutics for more people compared to a filling process using conventional isolators or restricted access barrier system (RABS). With a delivery time of just 3 mo, and customers reaching GMP production within 6 mo following their purchase order, this closed, gloveless, robotic liquid filling system helps to speed your path to clinical trials and commercialized product.

Liquid filling system supports regulatory compliance
Discover how our first-to-market gloveless, robotic approach supports EU-ANNEX-1 and other regulatory compliance. Learn how we’ve created a standard solution for aseptic filling that delivers higher control, reduced risk of contamination and less human error, lower cost, and faster time to clinic or market compared with traditional manual technologies. Four agencies—and counting—have approved commercial drug products filled on Cytiva workcells: Health Canada, FDA, China NMPA, and Singapore HSA. Visit our aseptic filling webpage to learn more about the Microcell™ vial filler and its companion SA25 aseptic filling workcell, which fills vials, syringes, and cartridges.
