Complete guide to Sea Melody ampoule filling and sealing machines — 2, 4, 6, and 8-needle models compared. Rectangular feeding system, PLC control, 1–20ml ampoules. Choose the right model for your production scale.
An ampoule filling and sealing machine is an automated system that doses liquid medication into glass ampoules and then hermetically seals each ampoule with a high-temperature flame, producing sterile, tamper-proof units ready for pharmaceutical packaging.
Sea Melody’s ampoule filling and sealing machines are combined drawing, filling, and sealing systems designed for pharmaceutical-grade ampoule production. All models share the same core technology: a rectangular feeding system that replaces the traditional rotating turntable, delivering higher filling precision, reduced ampoule breakage, and consistent production output across high-speed runs.
Available in four needle configurations — 2, 4, 6, and 8 needles — each model is suited to a different production scale. This page helps you choose the right model. If you already know your needle count, jump directly to the model page below.
The needle count determines how many ampoules are filled simultaneously per cycle. Higher needle count = higher output per hour, larger machine footprint, and more power consumption. The right choice depends on your daily production target, ampoule size, and floor space.
| Model | Needles | Output (pcs/h) | Ampoule Size | Power | Best For | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SM-J39 | 2 needles | 1,800 – 4,200 | 5 – 20ml | 0.37 kW | Small-batch, pilot lines, or larger ampoule sizes (10–20ml) | SM-J39 → |
| SM-J40 | 4 needles | 6,000 – 10,000 | 1 – 20ml | 0.73 kW | Mid-scale production, versatile across 1–20ml range | ↓ Specs below |
| SM-J41 | 6 needles | 8,100 – 12,000 | 1 – 20ml | 0.55 – 0.75 kW | Most popular — balanced output and efficiency for standard pharma lines | SM-J41 → |
| SM-J42 | 8 needles | 12,000 – 16,000 | 1 – 20ml | 0.75 – 1.5 kW | High-volume production lines, 1–10ml ampoules at maximum throughput | SM-J42 → |

The needle count determines how many ampoules are filled simultaneously per machine cycle. More needles = higher hourly output. The 2-needle SM-J39 suits small or pilot-scale production; the 6-needle SM-J41 is the most popular for standard pharma lines; the 8-needle SM-J42 is for high-volume continuous production. All models share the same rectangular feeding system and PLC control platform.
Yes — all models handle multiple ampoule sizes (1ml to 20ml depending on model). Changeovers between sizes require adjusting the feed hopper, tooth plate, and needle group, guided by the supplied operation and adjustment manual. The SM-J39 starts at 5ml; all other models handle from 1ml.
The sealing burners are compatible with pipeline gas, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), and liquefied natural gas. Gasified gasoline is also supported with a replacement burner head and pressure stabilizer. Oxygen is used as the combustion support gas across all fuel types.
Yes — all models support optional nitrogen gas blanketing during the filling step. This displaces oxygen from the ampoule before sealing and is standard practice for injectable medications and oxygen-sensitive chemical reagents.
Yes — needle count, ampoule size range, filling volume, and feed system parameters can all be modified. Visit our Custom Orders page to discuss your specification with our engineering team.
All machines include remote commissioning support via live video, a full operation and maintenance manual, and 7×24 after-sales service. Our after-sales engineers are assigned per machine before shipment, so they are familiar with your specific configuration. See our After-Sales Support page for full details.
