Optimal load placement inside an autoclave promotes full utilization of chamber capacity while maintaining operator’s ease-of-use. Our loading equipment includes:
Automatic Loading
Tuttnauer’s pharmaceutical autoclaves can be designed to integrate with automated loading and unloading systems.
Loading Carts and Transfer Carriages
The 316L loading carts are designed to roll from the transfer carriage onto the chamber rails. Tuttnauer’s unique chamber rails are fully removable and cleanable without any screws or threads. Loading carts have configurable shelves customized to meet customer needs and accommodate multiple loads & sizes in a single cart. To ensure safety and ease-of-use the carriage is equipped with a lock preventing sliding of the cart as well as swivel wheels with wheel breaks.
Internal Shelves and Baskets
For smaller size autoclaves, mainly used in R&D and QC, internal built in shelves and baskets provide maximum utilization of laboratory space.
