Molded Products

Molding is a key capability within AdvantaPure’s manufacturing operations. Our single-use molded components are produced using precision injection molding and overmolding techniques to create seamless, leak-free connections that reduce the need for barbs, fittings, and clamps. These single-use components can be ordered in a variety of custom configurations.

  • Enhanced Sterility and Contamination Control
    • Reduces the need for components like barbed fittings and hose clamps
    • Creates a more seamless flow path, reducing dead spaces and potential microbial
      ingress points
    • Ideal for aseptic operations such as media and buffer preparation, sterile filtration, and final fill
  • Reduced Assembly Errors
    • Molded configurations minimize time and labor associated with manual fabrication.
    • Increases product consistency and manufacturing repeatability
    • Reduces chances of incorrect installation during setup, improving operator safety and process repeatability on the drug manufacturing floor
  • Accelerated Installation and Turnaround
    • Plug-and-play designs simplify equipment setup, enabling rapid changeovers in multi-product facilities
  • Improved Integrity and Validation
    • Overmolded joints are leak-proof and pressure-tested, reducing the risk of batch loss
    • Smoother inner bores reduce cell shear and entrapment, to improve cell viability
  • Customized configurations for specific applications based
    on user requirements such as:
    • Upstream: Feed line manifolds for media or buffer delivery and drug substance.
    • Downstream: Sample collection or pooling manifolds in filtration or purification steps.
    • Final fill: Sterile filling manifolds with multiple filling needles or vessels.

From 37 Components to One

From Hours to Minutes.

Preassembled molded manifolds cut build time, reduce human error, and streamline quality control. One part replaces many — faster, safer, easier.

The traditional assembly on the left is made from: nine pieces of tubing, four barbed fittings, and double cable
ties.

An AdvantaPure overmolded fluid transfer system
is a complete unit. Leaks, entrapment, and
contamination concerns involved with barbed
fitting connections are eliminated.

Seamless Flow, Cleaner Process

No barbs, No Clamps, No Crevices Allowed.

Molded Manifolds have an uninterrupted flow path which eliminates leaks and liquid entrapment as well as eliminates contamination and cell shearing from hose barb impact
