What is a Suppository?


A suppository is a solid dosage form made from medicinal substances and suitable bases designed for insertion into a body cavity. Suppositories are solid at room temperature but can quickly soften and dissolve in secretions at certain temperatures after being inserted into a cavity, gradually releasing the medication to achieve local or systemic effects. Initially, suppositories were recognized only for their local effects, such as lubrication, astringent, antibacterial, and local anesthesia. However, with advancements in medicine, it was discovered that suppositories could exert systemic effects through rectal administration, avoiding the first-pass effect associated with oral medication.


Working Principle of a Suppository Filling Machine


The rolled plastic sheets (PVC, PVC/PE) are molded into shape using positive pressure blow molding on the suppository shell machine. They automatically enter the filling process, wherein the uniformly stirred medicinal liquid is automatically filled into the empty shells by a high-precision metering pump. The segments are then cut into multiple equal-length strips. After a period of low-temperature shaping, the liquid-solid state conversion occurs, transforming them into solid suppositories. Through shaping, sealing, batch numbering, and cutting processes, finished suppositories are produced.


Technical Features of a Suppository Filling Machine


  • The suppository filling machine employs an insertion-type filling method, which ensures accurate positioning, no dripping, no wall adhesion, and high metering accuracy.


    The suppository filling machine has a wide range of adaptability, suitable for filling high-viscosity gelatin bases and traditional Chinese medicine products.


  • The suppository filling machine is characterized by a high degree of automation, convenient adjustment, high-temperature control accuracy, reliable operation, and smooth running.


  • The suppository filling machine features a large liquid storage tank with constant temperature, stirring, and automatic liquid level control devices.


  • The low filling position of the drug liquid in the suppository filling machine reduces worker labor intensity. It also has a circulating liquid supply and pipeline insulation device to ensure the liquid medicine does not solidify when the machine stops.
