Start with the package route
“Ampoule filling machine” can describe different systems
A price comparison is only useful after the package route is fixed. A roll-fed plastic ampoule machine forms the container from film, fills it and seals it in one indexed process. A preformed plastic or glass ampoule line starts with finished empty containers. Blow-fill-seal creates the container by extrusion and belongs to a different equipment class.
Preformed plastic ampoules
Empty containers are fed and oriented before filling and closure. Container tolerances and closure geometry control tooling and change parts.
Glass ampoules
Glass handling, filling, flame sealing, cooling and breakage control create a different machine and factory-acceptance boundary.
Extrusion BFS
Resin extrusion, container forming, filling and sealing occur inside an integrated process. Do not compare it as a simple option on a roll-fed machine.
Review the BFS route →First quotation decision: send one empty pack, one filled pack, the controlled drawing, fill volume, product description and opening method. HIJ can then confirm which route should be quoted.
Itemized quotation
What changes an ampoule filling machine price?
The machine frame is only one line item. Tooling, dosing, film, inspection, utilities, documentation and site work can change both purchase cost and usable output. Require each decision to be stated separately.
| Price driver | What must be defined | Why it changes scope | Evidence to request |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ampoule route | Roll-fed plastic, preformed plastic, glass or extrusion BFS | Changes the entire forming, feeding and sealing architecture | Approved sample, drawing and package route |
| Format range | Fill volume, cavity shape, pitch and cut profile | Controls mold count, material width and change parts | Format matrix with shared and dedicated parts |
| Product path | Viscosity, foaming, particles, temperature and compatibility | Determines pump, hopper, tubing, nozzle and cleaning design | Representative-product filling trial |
| Accepted output | Good packs per minute at a stated volume and format | Rated cycles do not equal accepted production | Timed FAT run with rejects and stops recorded |
| Controls and inspection | Registration, code checks, missing-fill detection and reject logic | Adds sensors, software, validation and reject hardware | Cause-and-effect and challenge-test list |
| Project services | Documents, FAT, shipping, installation, training and site support | Changes the delivered boundary beyond the machine | Line-by-line inclusion and exclusion schedule |

Historical price evidence: the quotation dated August 18, 2025 lists the GGS-118P5 base machine at USD 20,800 FOB Ningbo, including one mold and one peristaltic-pump set for water-like liquid. It is not a current offer. Ask HIJ to re-price your exact product, format, options and commercial terms.
Controlled process
Six stations that must work as one accepted process
Price and output should be evaluated across the complete pack-making sequence, using the approved product and film.
01
Unwind and guide
Feed the approved packaging web under controlled alignment and tension.
02
Form the ampoules
Heat and shape the film with tooling made to the approved cavity drawing.
03
Meter the product
Match the pump and nozzle path to product flow, fill range and cut-off behavior.
04
Seal the web
Develop the time, temperature and pressure window for the selected materials.
05
Code and register
Apply batch information and confirm readable placement when printing is specified.
06
Cut and discharge
Separate the agreed profile and transfer acceptable ampoules without damaging the seal.
Options and ownership cost
Compare the full project boundary, not only the base machine
| 2025 quotation item | Historical reference | Decision |
|---|---|---|
| GGS-118P5 base machine | USD 20,800 | Reconfirm present specification and commercial terms |
| Additional mold | USD 3,200 | Required when shape or size needs dedicated tooling |
| Air compressor | USD 1,950 | Confirm site air supply and voltage |
| Chiller | USD 2,150 | Confirm cooling load and site water conditions |
Costs to define before purchase order
- Additional molds and change parts for every approved format
- Pump, hose and nozzle changes for different products
- Compressor, chiller, electrical adaptation and other utilities
- Inspection, coding, labeling and downstream interfaces
- Export packing, freight, insurance, duties and site handling
- Installation, commissioning, training, documents and spare parts
- Cleaning time, film waste, changeover labor and planned maintenance
All figures above are from the dated source quotation and must be refreshed before budgeting.

Buyer questions
Ampoule filling machine price FAQ
How much does an ampoule filling machine cost?
The supplied quotation dated August 18, 2025 lists one GGS-118P5 roll-fed plastic ampoule machine at USD 20,800 FOB Ningbo. That historical figure is not a current offer. Today’s price depends on ampoule route, fill range, molds, product path, utilities, inspection, documents, freight and service scope.
What was included in the USD 20,800 reference?
The source quotation states one GGS-118P5 machine, one mold and one peristaltic-pump set for water-like liquid. Optional equipment, additional formats, logistics and project services must be itemized separately.
How much does an additional ampoule mold cost?
The same 2025 quotation lists an additional mold at USD 3,200. Treat this only as a dated reference; final tooling price depends on the approved shape, size, film and cut profile.
What filling volumes can the GGS-118P5 handle?
The supplied technical sheet lists a 0.3–200 ml filling range. The pump, product behavior, ampoule geometry and acceptance method still need to be confirmed for each project.
Does a higher cycle rate guarantee more accepted ampoules?
No. Accepted output is constrained by forming, dosing, sealing, coding, cutting, material behavior, rejects, stops and downstream handling. State the required good packs per minute and prove it during an agreed FAT run.
Is a roll-fed plastic ampoule machine the same as BFS?
No. A roll-fed machine forms packs from film and then fills and seals them. Blow-fill-seal extrudes the container and integrates forming, filling and sealing in another process architecture.
What should I send to receive a reliable quotation?
Send product information, empty and filled samples, the ampoule drawing, film structure, fill-volume range, required accepted output, utilities, inspection requirements, FAT expectations, destination and requested services.
Should the quotation include freight and commissioning?
Only if those items are explicitly included. Ask for Incoterm, freight, insurance, site handling, installation, commissioning, training and travel responsibilities to be shown as separate inclusions or exclusions.
