Country
South Korea
Challenges
Before introducing the new production system, the customer needed to improve the flexibility and convenience of vial manufacturing operations.
Traditional mechanical adjustment methods often require experienced operators to manually control production parameters, which can increase adjustment time when production conditions change. The customer was looking for a solution that could simplify operation while maintaining precise control of forming processes.
The main requirements included improving digital parameter management, enhancing station positioning accuracy, and reducing maintenance complexity during long-term operation.
Solution
Based on the customer's production requirements, SINOPED configured a PLC-controlled vial production line with servo motor positioning technology.
The equipment uses a touchscreen interface as the main operation platform, allowing operators to modify production parameters digitally instead of relying only on mechanical adjustment. Important working parameters, including rotation speed, station movement distance, and forming tool positioning, can be adjusted through the control system.
The machine structure was also optimized for pharmaceutical manufacturing applications. The forming system adopts precision components and improved sliding mechanisms to support smoother operation and easier maintenance.
Through this solution, the customer obtained an automated vial manufacturing system suitable for pharmaceutical production environments.

Technical Features
The SINOPED vial production line adopts a digital manufacturing concept for pharmaceutical glass container production.
The PLC control system enables operators to adjust production settings directly through the touchscreen interface. Compared with traditional manual adjustment methods, digital parameter management makes equipment operation more convenient and supports faster production setup.
The machine integrates servo positioning technology to control working station movement with improved precision. The forming system includes optimized guide structures and linear bearing mechanisms, helping reduce wear caused by traditional sliding structures.
For pharmaceutical manufacturers requiring additional inspection capability, an optional camera inspection system can be integrated for monitoring container appearance during production.
Implementation
SINOPED completed the project through a structured overseas equipment supply process.
During the initial stage, the engineering team communicated with the South Korean customer regarding production requirements, vial specifications, and automation expectations. Based on these details, SINOPED completed equipment configuration and manufacturing.
Before shipment, the production line underwent functional testing and technical inspection. After delivery, SINOPED provided remote technical support to assist with installation guidance, machine commissioning, and operator training.
The complete project process covered equipment manufacturing, technical communication, and after-sales service support.
Results
After implementation, the customer obtained a digital-controlled vial manufacturing solution with improved operation flexibility and automated parameter management.
The production line helped the pharmaceutical manufacturer establish a more efficient workflow for glass vial forming, while providing a stable equipment foundation for injectable pharmaceutical packaging production.
The successful cooperation also reflects SINOPED's capability in supplying pharmaceutical machinery solutions for international markets.
Optional
"The digital control system makes parameter adjustment easier and improves daily operation convenience. SINOPED provided effective technical communication during the project."
