AVM presented its latest pharmaceutical equipment developments at CIPM 2026, held from October 27 to 29 at the Xiamen International Expo Center. At Booth 5-B13, the company introduced a new rapid transfer port (RTP), multiport diaphragm valves, and a newly developed pressure-capable split butterfly valve (SBV). The exhibition brought together long-standing customers, industry professionals, and new visitors for face-to-face product discussions and technical exchanges.
Throughout the three-day event, visitors had the opportunity to examine AVM's equipment displays, learn about the latest product developments, and discuss potential applications directly with the technical and sales teams. The exhibition also provided an opportunity to reconnect with existing pharmaceutical industry customers and strengthen business relationships.

Many of AVM's existing customers from the pharmaceutical industry visited the booth after learning about the company's participation in the Xiamen exhibition. These meetings created opportunities to renew established business relationships, exchange industry insights, and explore the latest equipment developments.
In addition to returning customers, new exhibition visitors also showed interest in the products on display. Face-to-face discussions allowed visitors to examine equipment structures, review connection arrangements, and raise application-specific questions with the AVM team.
For pharmaceutical equipment buyers, seeing the actual assembly can provide a clearer understanding of its physical arrangement, connection points, and accessibility. While technical drawings and application reviews remain essential during equipment selection, direct product demonstrations offer a useful starting point for further technical discussions.
Face-to-face discussions brought returning customers and other exhibition visitors together at the AVM booth.
One of the key highlights of AVM's exhibition presentation was its new rapid transfer port (RTP). The display included metallic and white transfer containers together with circular transfer-port components, giving visitors an opportunity to examine the equipment as an assembled transfer solution.
A rapid transfer port provides an interface for transferring materials into or out of a controlled enclosure while supporting contained handling processes. When selecting an RTP for a pharmaceutical application, buyers need to consider more than the port itself. Container dimensions, material characteristics, connection arrangements, installation space, and cleaning procedures all influence the final equipment configuration.
For an effective application assessment, customers should prepare the following information:
The new RTP displayed at CIPM 2026 provided visitors with a practical reference for these discussions. By presenting transfer containers and port components together with other pharmaceutical valve equipment, AVM made it easier for customers to explore different equipment formats and potential application requirements.

AVM also introduced its new multiport diaphragm valves at the exhibition. The displayed configurations included elongated and polygonal valve-body arrangements with multiple connection points, demonstrating different structural options for process flow management.
In pharmaceutical processing systems, multiport diaphragm valves can help manage multiple flow paths within a process line. Their configuration needs to correspond to the actual process requirements, including connection positions, flow direction, operating sequences, and available installation space.
When evaluating a multiport diaphragm valve, customers should consider several factors:
A process flow diagram is particularly useful during technical communication because it allows engineers to evaluate the required valve configuration more accurately. Detailed connection arrangements and internal flow-path specifications should then be confirmed through the relevant technical documentation.
The multiport diaphragm valve display at CIPM 2026 gave visitors an opportunity to observe AVM's new configurations and discuss potential applications directly with the team.

Another important product development presented by AVM was its newly developed pressure-capable split butterfly valve (SBV). Introduced alongside the RTP and multiport diaphragm valves, this product attracted attention from visitors interested in contained material transfer equipment and specialized pharmaceutical processing applications.
Split butterfly valves are used in contained powder and material transfer applications. The newly presented pressure-capable version adds another development direction for customers whose transfer processes involve specific pressure conditions.
When evaluating this type of equipment, it is important to define the intended operating conditions clearly. Technical discussions should cover:
The actual operating limits and suitable configuration must be confirmed through product-specific technical documentation and application review. A pressure-capable designation alone does not establish a universal working pressure or operating range.
By introducing this newly developed SBV at CIPM 2026, AVM provided customers with another product option to consider when reviewing their contained transfer requirements.
The three product developments showcased at CIPM 2026 address different equipment selection requirements in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Understanding the intended application is essential for determining the appropriate configuration.
For customers planning further discussions with AVM after the exhibition, the following information can help make technical communication more efficient:
| Product | Information to Prepare | Details to Confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Rapid Transfer Port (RTP) | Transfer materials, container handling, and enclosure layout | Interface design and installation arrangement |
| Multiport Diaphragm Valve | Process flow diagram, connection functions, and operating sequence | Flow-path configuration and connection layout |
| Pressure-Capable Split Butterfly Valve (SBV) | Transfer requirements, pressure conditions, and temperature conditions | Applicable operating limits and technical documentation |
Customers should also identify any installation restrictions, such as limited maintenance access, fixed connection positions, or compatibility requirements with existing equipment. Separating essential requirements from adjustable design preferences can help simplify the equipment evaluation process.
With this information, AVM can better understand the intended application and provide more relevant technical guidance for subsequent product selection and configuration discussions.
The 68th China National Pharmaceutical Machinery Exposition and the 2026 China International Pharmaceutical Machinery Exposition provided AVM with an opportunity to reconnect with established customers and present its latest product developments to the pharmaceutical industry.
During the three-day exhibition in Xiamen, the new rapid transfer port, multiport diaphragm valves, and pressure-capable split butterfly valve became important topics of discussion at Booth 5-B13. The event also allowed visitors to examine the equipment in person and communicate their project requirements directly with the AVM team.
For customers who attended the exhibition, the product displays and photographs provide a useful reference for continuing technical discussions. For those who could not visit, this overview offers an introduction to AVM's latest developments and the equipment presented at the event.
AVM sincerely thanks all customers, partners, and visitors who took the time to visit Booth 5-B13. We appreciate their interest, feedback, and continued trust.
If you are interested in AVM's rapid transfer ports, multiport diaphragm valves, or pressure-capable split butterfly valves, please contact our team to discuss your application requirements. Sharing a process drawing, operating conditions, and installation details will help us provide more targeted technical support.
