An apparatus for automated production of pharmaceutical or biotechnological articles comprising: - a first chamber with a first controlled atmosphere; - a second chamber with a second controlled atmosphere; - an opening for passage of containers between the first chamber and the second chamber; - a device for moving a group of containers for pharmaceutical or biotechnological use between the chambers, comprising - a support structure; - supports, each comprising a support part configured to accommodate a container with an exposed part so that it can be picked up by transport means (13,14) of the containers; - a guide which is configured to guide the supports, which is rotationally coupled to the support structure with respect to an axis of rotation so as to rotate between a first position and a second position and which receives the supports orientated in such a way that the support parts are facing towards a first zone in the first position and towards a second zone in the second position so as to locate, at least partially, the exposed part of each of the containers respectively in one the chambers; - first rotating means configured to rotate the guide with respect to the axis of rotation; and - movement means configured to move the supports along the guide so as to vary the distances between the supports in the direction of the axis of rotation; and - first transport means arranged internally of the first chamber and configured to transport containers so as to deposit or pick up containers on the supports of the device and/or second transport means arranged internally of the second chamber and configured to transport containers so as to deposit or pick up containers on the supports of the device; wherein the support structure arranges the axis of rotation of the guide at or in proximity of the opening so that the rotation of the first rotating means brings the supports from the first position, in which the supports face towards the first chamber, to the second position in which the supports face towards the second chamber, so as to locate, at least partially, the exposed part of each of the containers respectively in the first chamber and in the second chamber. - a first chamber with a first controlled atmosphere; - a second chamber with a second controlled atmosphere; - an opening for passage of containers between the first chamber and the second chamber; - a device for moving a group of containers for pharmaceutical or biotechnological use between the chambers, comprising - a support structure; - supports, each comprising a support part configured to accommodate a container with an exposed part so that it can be picked up by transport means (13,14) of the containers; - a guide which is configured to guide the supports, which is rotationally coupled to the support structure with respect to an axis of rotation so as to rotate between a first position and a second position and which receives the supports orientated in such a way that the support parts are facing towards a first zone in the first position and towards a second zone in the second position so as to locate, at least partially, the exposed part of each of the containers respectively in one the chambers; - first rotating means configured to rotate the guide with respect to the axis of rotation; and - movement means configured to move the supports along the guide so as to vary the distances between the supports in the direction of the axis of rotation; and - a support structure; - supports, each comprising a support part configured to accommodate a container with an exposed part so that it can be picked up by transport means (13,14) of the containers; - a guide which is configured to guide the supports, which is rotationally coupled to the support structure with respect to an axis of rotation so as to rotate between a first position and a second position and which receives the supports orientated in such a way that the support parts are facing towards a first zone in the first position and towards a second zone in the second position so as to locate, at least partially, the exposed part of each of the containers respectively in one the chambers; - first rotating means configured to rotate the guide with respect to the axis of rotation; and - movement means configured to move the supports along the guide so as to vary the distances between the supports in the direction of the axis of rotation; and - first transport means arranged internally of the first chamber and configured to transport containers so as to deposit or pick up containers on the supports of the device and/or second transport means arranged internally of the second chamber and configured to transport containers so as to deposit or pick up containers on the supports of the device;
