Automation Upgrade for Semi Automatic Tabletop Piston Filler
Automation Upgrade for Piston Filling Machine
Here is a way to upgrade your manual filling system to increase production by automating your line with your existing 2-head table-top piston filler. This automation system includes a heavy duty stainless frame, touch screen controls, pneumatic indexing gates and sensors to prevent filling when no bottles are present or pause the line when the accumulator is full.
The Bulk Filler System for dry products is an accurate and easy to operate machine which features a semi-automatic scale with automatic tare. With it’s automatic feed, speed controls for both bulk and dribble feed rates, and automatic set points, this filling machine is highly sought after. The product flow from the hopper to feed pan can also be controlled by an adjustable slide gate (included). All product contact surfaces are stainless steel and easily disassembled for cleaning and maintenance. This is the ideal filling machine for an operation progressing from hand filling to automatic filling of any bulk-sized cartonsor bags.
Here is an aerosol filling line that’s perfect for start-ups or small volume production. It features semi-automatic operation to produce 600 to 900 aerosol containers per hour with only 3 operators. The first operator loads containers on to our rotary loading table while inspecting the containers for quality. Filling is performed by an automatic single head, or two head, tabletop piston filling machine for consistent filling volume. The second operator manually places the spray valve on the container. Both the single head valve crimper and 5 head gasser/shaker are automatic. The third operator takes the spray cans from the rotary accumulating table, applies the label with the semi-automatic labeler, puts the cap on, gives a final inspection and places the finished product into the cases.
The APACKS Molten Filling Machine is designed to fill lip balms, candle wax, stick deodorants, lipstick, shoe polish, car wax, glycerin soaps and petrolatum based products that flow when hot and cool to a solid at ambient temperature. The FMI-6000-AP Molten Filling Machine accurately fill liquids, and liquified solids, into molds or containers at temperatures up to 200° Fahrenheit. The product tank and each fill head are heated and temperature controlled. All machine functions are PLC controlled.
APACKS’ Automatic Overflow Filler for Corrosive Products is engineered to fill products like acid solutions, etching chemicals, lime and calcium removers, pH lowering liquids, vinegar, citric concentrates, bleaches, brine solutions and more. The entire fluid path resists corrosion, from the pump to the check value. Built on a heavy duty, welded 304 stainless steel frame and mounted on four heavy duty leveling legs, this Filler offers superb flexibility with touch-screen PLC controls and adjustable nozzle stroke and nozzle spacing. The Corrosive Overflow Filler is available with one to sixteen heads and, like any of APACKS machines, can be designed for exterior corrosion resistance in environments that can shorten equipment life.
