cryoFIL® cryovial filling platform

cryoFIL® enhances cell viability and maximises yield through automated cryovial filling and handling.


In the rapidly growing Cell & Gene Therapy (CGT) sector, many processes remain manual, raising contamination risks from operator handling. The cryoFIL® system automates your cryovial filling process and uses Controlled Rate Freezer (CRF) compatible racks, providing seamless integration.

From small to large batch sizes - whether 10 or 1000 vials - we comply with current regulatory standards to offer a scalable solution for your cell therapy needs.

How does cryoFIL® work?

Cryovials are transferred from the rack to the filling module. Each vial is individually uncapped, filled and recapped before being returned to its original position in the rack. 

The rack can then be placed directly into the freezer, eliminating the need for further handling of the vials. This process maintains the integrity of your samples and reduces the risk of contamination.

Sterility assurance

Our advanced aseptic design ensures that vials are opened for the shortest possible duration, and only exposed to 'first air', significantly reducing the risk of contamination.

Multi-format flexibility

Process multiple cryovial types seamlessly on the same platform, thanks to a modular design with quick swap change parts. Onboard recipe settings allow for rapid format adjustments, reducing downtime and enhancing operational efficiency. This versatility makes it easy to scale production while accommodating evolving process requirements.

Maximises cell yield

Maximise the number of in-spec fills with intelligent closed-loop filling, minimised hold-up volume, and a zero-loss priming sequence. Real-time 100% weight verification ensures precise dosing, helping to preserve valuable cell therapies.

Touch screen interface

A user-friendly, password-protected touchscreen interface provides intuitive control with multi-level user access. The system generates 21 CFR part 11 compliant batch reports.
