In the global biopharmaceutical industry, production processes relying on single-use solutions are extensively employed. Achieving aseptic and reliable disconnection of tubing connected to single-use bioprocessing products, such as mixing bags and storage bags, is crucial.
Introduction
LifemetaTM Tube Sealer is a handheld aseptic tube sealer machine designed specifically for the disconnection of TPE tubes used with disposable products such as refill bags, sampling bags, etc. It is suitable for sealing tubes in both empty and liquid-filled conditions. The LifemetaTM Tube Sealer also achieve aseptic and reliable disconnection of TPE tubings in non-sterile environments.
