A fully automated machine that leak-tests 100% of production of filled, closed IV bags, with automatic loading and unloading.

VEGA performs leak test analysis on filled, closed IV bags directly in the production line. Its Probe Position Decay technology delivers more sensitive, faster and cheaper analysis, and the machine can be fully customized.
Fully automated loading and unloading — no operator needed.
Detects leaks down to 1 µm.
Lower carbon footprint and lower operating costs.
Not affected by condensation on the bag surface.
Detects both gas and liquid leaks across the entire bag.
Non-destructive, non-invasive, deterministic and quantitative analysis; adjustable speed and detection limits.
