Apparatus for moving containers, and devices and methods for producing pharmaceutical or biotechnological products
By designing a rotating device for the support structure and guide components, the problem of cross-contamination during container transfer between chambers was solved. This enabled the safe and flexible movement of containers between different chambers, adapting to the needs of containers of different shapes and sizes, and reducing the risk of cross-contamination and the difficulty of size changes on the production line.

Abstract
An apparatus (1) for moving a set of containers (A) for pharmaceutical or biotechnological use between atmospherically controlled chambers (11, 12) is described, said apparatus (1) comprising: a support structure (7); supports (2) configured to house containers (A) having exposed parts (B); guides (3) for guiding said supports (2), rotatably coupled to said support structure (7); first rotating means (4) of said guides (3) and moving means (5) of said supports along said guides (3). Said guides (3) are rotated to position said exposed parts (B) of said containers (A) in one of said chambers (11, 12) and said moving means (5) change the distance (D) between said supports (2), preferably through a body (51) rotatably coupled to said guides (3) and comprising an outer surface (52) on which tracks (53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60) are formed. An apparatus (100) and a method for producing pharmaceutical or biotechnological products are also described.
