Reed-Lane expands warehouse capacity by 30% and adds new 48-slat bottling machine.

Reed-Lane, a NJ-based pharmaceutical contract packaging provider that serves prescription, over-the-counter, and generic drug manufacturers, has added to its existing 132,000-sq-ft facility with a 30% increase in warehouse space. 

The warehouse expansion makes room for an expected increase in overall production, as the company also put the finishing touches on its fifth bottling line. Reed-Lane focuses on blister packaging, bottling, pouching, and vial filling. 

Among the machinery in the new bottling line is a MPS 48-16 slat filler from Modular Packaging Systems. Utilizing the economy of just 48 slats, the machine’s independently driven top brush combines with a vibrator to provide the control and agitation to fill each cavity slat 100%.

Product falls into 16 divided chutes, where it is fed into a custom funnel, then straight to the opening of the awaiting 16 bottles. The 48-16 is equipped with dual dust extraction points to eliminate excessive dust buildup from within the product hopper area.

Other equipment in Reed-Lane’s new bottling line include:
