Clean Bedding Packaging Systems for In-House Packaging of Laboratory Animal Bedding, Enrichment and Food
The VBPS 7000 is an automated bagging system for in-house packaging laboratory animal bedding, enrichment and feed, into discrete packages and pouches. Pouch styles and sizes are selected for suitable use in isolator change stations, satellite facilities or field operations. Single use pouch styles may be flat or self standing, sealed or with a re-sealable zipper and are supplied with breathable bio-barrier Reemay® membrane filters. Sealed pouches can be surface decontaminated and autoclaved.
The VBPS 7000 automatically opens individual standard pre-made pouches from the loading cartridge stack. Bedding is then manually filled or automatically proportioned into the pouch by weight or volume. Enrichment materials or feed can be manually added or substituted for the bedding. The pouch is then automatically thermo sealed and the next pouch is readied for filling.
