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 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.
Designed for filling 30-300 gallon containers, the Flow Meter Filler for Drums and Totes offers the state of the art Coriolis Flow Meter technology to fill liquid by weight. No other filling technology offers this advanced combination of features and benefits. This system offers huge cost benefits and a high degree of flexibility. Mass Flow Meter technology has never been this affordable. The Coriolis Flow Meter technology can measure the mass (weight) of virtually any liquid. Changes in product viscosity, temperature, pressure, and specific gravity are compensated for automatically. This filling system can also provide sophisticated process control systems to track fill weights and product density in real time. This filling technology is the answer to controlling fill weight problems.
This is an example of a semi-automatic aerosol filling line, perfect for small volume production. It features a semi-automatic operation capable of producing up to 1,200 to 2,400 aerosol containers per hour. The first operator loads containers on to our rotary loading table while inspecting the containers for imperfections. Filling, valve placement, valve crimping, gasser/shakers, and labeling are all automated. The second operator removes the spray cans from the rotary accumulating table, places the over cap, inspects, and places the finished product into cases. The third operator stacks the cases on pallets and preps the pallets for shipping.
APACKS entry level bench top piston filling machine for viscous liquids is a highly versatile, dependable, and accurate table top filling machine. This piston filler is capable of handling water thin to highly viscous products. This particular filler is often used when chunks or particles like you may find in salsa and some sauces need to be filled. This model features a highly accurate 3-way valve mechanism with fittings for the hopper, product cylinder and nozzle. Disassembly and cleaning is completed in a matter of minutes and typically requires no tools. The operator drops a line of flexible tubing into a drum or tank, adjusts the volume of fill to the desired setting and places an empty container under the filling nozzle. With a simple press of a foot pedal, the exact quantity of product is drawn from the drum and dispensed into the container. The machine operates one fill at a time, and stands by until the foot pedal is depressed again.
