Abstract: An arrangement and a method for separating a woven textile into recovered fibers and textile residual. The recovered fibers can be reused in another textile at a later point in time, ensuring an environmentally friendly and energy efficient method for recycling woven textiles. The arrangement includes feeding means, a separating unit, and a fiber sorting device. The woven textile is separated into recovered fibers and textile residual by rotation of a brush roller arranged in the separating unit. Further, the fiber sorting device is arranged downstream the separating unit to collect the recovered fibers and textile residual. A sensor is arranged to monitor and determine the position of a downstream free end of the woven textile being fed to the separating unit. The arrangement further includes a control unit configured to control an operation of the feeding means, the separating unit and the fiber sorting device.

Abstract: A cartridge and loading system for loading tamper-evident syringe caps into a robotic pharmaceutical compounding device. The compounding device has a syringe finishing station, and can transfer tamper-evident caps from the cartridge to the syringe finishing station. The cartridge has a floor disposed at an angle to horizontal. The device may include a vibratory element for vibrating the cartridge, so that tamper-evident caps are fed to an outlet of the cartridge by gravity.
