AVM took part in CIPM 2026 in Xiamen from October 27 to 29, presenting several product developments for the pharmaceutical industry. At Booth 5-B13 of the Xiamen International Expo Center, the company showcased a new rapid transfer port (RTP), multiport diaphragm valves and a newly developed pressure-capable split butterfly valve (SBV).

AVM has developed a new SBV passive valve cleaning stand designed for cleaning the passive valve in a split butterfly valve (SBV) system. This 4-inch unit integrates a pneumatic lifting assembly and a cleaning ball, providing a 450 mm lifting stroke and an adjustable operating speed of 20–50 mm/s.

At CPHI Milan 2026, AVM presented its contained transfer and sampling solutions designed for pharmaceutical and industrial applications, including the split butterfly valve, rapid transfer port and high containment sampling valve. The exhibition provided an opportunity for visitors to discuss equipment selection, application requirements and project-specific solutions with the AVM team.

Equipment must maintain consistent flow, minimize product residue, support effective cleaning, and protect product quality throughout the manufacturing process. A Sanitary Rotary Valve is designed to address these challenges by combining controlled material discharge with hygienic equipment design.

AVM's technical team has introduced two new products to its sales colleagues: a discharge valve and an air-sealed knife gate valve. Using engineering models and sectional views, the team brought the discussion beyond product names and into the components behind them.

A Rapid Transfer Port RTP provides a controlled interface for moving materials, components, tools, samples, or waste between an isolated process and its surrounding environment without unnecessarily exposing the critical zone. By combining an Alpha port, Beta container, mechanical interlocking structure, and controlled docking procedure, an RTP system can help reduce contamination, cross-contamination, operator exposure, and process interruption. This article explains how RTP technology works, where it is used, what performance factors matter, and how AVM Extraordinary Intelligent Control Equipment Co., Ltd. approaches aseptic and high-containment transfer applications.
