About the AFT LAB
Creating capsule formulations with different capsule sizes and fill combinations with AFT LAB affords greater flexibility, and ensures pharmaceutical products are ready for technology transfer. A fully automatic R&D-scale capsule filling machine with a small footprint, AFT LAB is the preferred option for laboratories, while its versatile tamping mechanism for powder filling – and its intuitive interface – ensure a smooth scale-up.
