PSM fills 3 ML Ready-to-Use Cartridges successfully for Pen Applications
With the implementation of ready-to-use aseptic filling line, PSM has the capabilities of processing pre-sterilized syringes, vials and cartridges. The first cartridges were being filled for a small scale R&D application recently.
With e.g. the GLP1 insulin has been growing significantly over the last years, also the demand for filling capacities for pre-crimped cartridges for smaller batches has increased.
In the GMP lab scale, PSM can fill and close around 500 cartridges per day. In clinical phases 2 and 3, as well as in subsequent commercial manufacturing, up to 7,000 units per hour can be processed.
All Fill & Finish solutions can be executed with vacuum stoppering. This is extremely important, especially when a high stopper position accuracy is required and also if there is the requirement for a very low residual air bubble. Both parameters can be extremely important when using a pre-crimped cartridge in traditional pen technologies.
Company Run: Move a lot together – what a day!
Our team PSM and Viktoria Apotheke took part in the “DM COMPANY RUN in SAARBRÜCKEN” and it was a complete success. We mastered the course with a lot of energy, team spirit and a large portion of fun.
A huge thank you to everyone who took part and supported us.
You showed what teamwork really means. Whether running, cheering or organising – every contribution was valuable!
Together we are now even stronger and more motivated.

The PSM is actively involved in setting up the new PDA D/A/CH
The PDA (Parenteral Drug Association) has 25 chapters around the world, with local programmes and resources to help stay informed, connect with peers and influence the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industry. Through global regulatory harmonisation efforts, new manufacturing strategies and technologies, and new modalities, the PDA’s major goal is to cure diseases rather than treat them.
“The PDA D/A/CH now introduces Thorsten Häfner (PSM) as the new Chairman for its recently established organisational representation in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
Thorsten Haefner will lead this very important committee, whose main task is to connect our members and facilitate the exchange between industry peers. Thorsten has been a long-standing member of PDA and a valuable speaker over the years. He began his career in the pharmaceutical industry several years ago at a German fill and finish company. Over the past few years, Thorsten has led Business Development and Product Management, and was responsible for robotics in pharma, human-free aseptic processes, and the development of Annex 1 compliant fill and finish equipment. In 2022, he started a new chapter in his professional career by taking on the role of VP of Business Development and Authorized Officer at the German CDMO PSM GmbH.”

We are delighted that, with Thorsten Häfner as the new Chairman of the PDA for Germany, Austria and Switzerland, we as PSM can contribute to promoting cooperation and exchange in the industry and thus continuously improve the lives of patients.
flexfill – flexibility is key in aseptic contract manufacturing!
With the installation of the flexfill, we are able to fill syringes, vials, and cartridges using state-of-the-art technology from groninger, meeting the current requirements of the pharmaceutical industry.
The flexfill is a reliable and flexible filling and closing machine, that processes syringes vials and cartridges with a line performance of up to 12,000 objects per hours. It is equipped with a proven and reliable no-touch-transfer (NTT) of presterilized primary packaging containers into the aseptic zone as part of groninger’s safetransfer technology. Thanks to the smartfill technology, product loss is minimized. Contact groninger for more information: groninger group – flexfill
robocell – The first gloveless robotic filling line in Europe for small batch CDMO services with highest product yield requirements
The human factor is a critical risk in the pharmaceutical industry: In the complex world of pharmaceuticals, precision matters. But so does safety. Groninger and SKAN developed a gloveless, fully automated filling line based on robotic technology. The robocell, addresses this challenge by reducing the risk of contamination from human intervention in the aseptic filling process to an absolute minimum. All manual processes are replaced by various robotic technologies that provide maximum safety. The robocell can be used from the beginning of drug development through the clinical phases and scaled-out to commercial production. By eliminating human intervention, manufacturers can ensure their products meet the highest quality standards while maintaining process safety, operator safety and compliance with Annex 1. Watch this video to find out more about the robocell and learn about its benefits and possible applications.

PSM GmbH – Pharma CDMO at the FAT at Körber in Munich
Congratulations Körber Pharma on passing the FAT. Thank you for the kind support and commitment of the Körber team. We are impressed by the smooth and perfect FAT runs with the two new visual inspection machines. Already delivered and installed at our site in Schiffweiler / Germany, these fully automated visual inspection machines for vials and syringes with a 100% Container Closure Integrity Test (CCI) complete our machine portfolio finally. As PSM, we are now able to offer manual visual inspections for small batches and fully automated visual inspection for mid-size batches to ensure the highest level of safety for pharma products.
