IPC Bin - Intermediate Process Container

Application & Process

A Prism Bin (IPC) is a container made from SS 316 sheets with a cylindrical or square shape body and tapered bottom. A lid is provided on top, which is large enough to make loading and washing the IPC easy. The bin can be seated on a detachable stand or fixed leg made of SS 304 pipe stand. Each leg is fitted with a heavy-duty castor wheel of special design with a ball bearing and SS side frame (2 nos. fixed and 2 nos. swiveling).

 

Prism Bins (IPC) are used for handling, storing, transporting and mixing pharmaceutical powders and granules before, between and after various processes. They are designed and manufactured to be handled through their own trolley and offer the advantage of leaving the trolley on the floor when the container is raised up to be positioned onto process machines like tablet presses, powder filling machines, etc.
