Abstract

Equipment for the automated assembly of consumable units for use in an inhalation device from components that include a mouthpiece, a container defining a chamber for aerosolisable material, and a closure for the chamber, is disclosed. The equipment comprise at least one assembly line having one or more assembly stations that each comprises tooling for performing an assembly operation on the components, and a transport system for supplying the components to the assembly stations and advancing the components through the assembly stations in a sequence to assemble at least part of the device from the components. A process for the serial production of consumable units for use with an inhalation device is also disclosed.
