Application:
This type of filler is best suited for liquids with low to medium
viscosity. liquids with solid particulates not exceeding 1/16" can also
be filled. Note that overflow fillers are the machine of choice in
handling very foamy products at higher speeds.
Examples:
Sauces, syrups, light gels and shampoos, foamy cleansers and chemicals,
water and other non carbonated aqueous beverages.
Advantages:
High performance, easy to clean, easy to operate, expandable at low
cost. Offers greatest flexibility at lowest cost
How it Works:
The supply side (dark blue) of a two
part nozzzle is used to pump product into the container. When the
container fills up to the target fill height, the excess product and
foam is forced out of the container (red arrows) via the return side to
the original product source tank.
Filling Machine
Selection by Daily
Production
Semi Manual Production - < 800 Containers
per Day Lowest Cost Choice with limited output.
Best suited for large container filling e.g. gallons and 2.5
gallons, etc.
Both hands are required for operation of the filling machine as
well as bottle handling.
Filling sequence is controlled entirely by the operator.
Semi Manual Production - < 1200 Containers
per Day Lowest Cost Choice with higher but still limited
output. Best suited for small to medium size container filling
e.g. 1oz to gallon containers.
Both hands are required for operation of the filling machine as
well as bottle handling.
Filling sequence is controlled entirely by the operator.
Intermediate Automatic
Production - < 10000 per Day Semi Automatic machine is
upgraded to fully automatic operation; Operator needed only for
loading bottles.
Bottle management and filling sequence is electronically
controlled entirely by the filling machine.
Economy priced fully automatic machine with excellent output but
limited ability to expand capacity in the future.
High Performance Large Frame Automatic Production
to 60000 Containers per Day or Greater.
Top of the line large frame base machine used for larger bottle
sizes e.g. F-style gallons and greater or for up to 16 heads on
smaller bottles for very high speed production rates of up to
200 cpm. This platform's fill speeds competes with rotary
systems at a more favorable cost.
Bottle management and filling sequence is electronically
controlled entirely by the filling machine.
Sophisticated bottle management and error controls allow
sustained high speed operation.
