Benchtop Piston Filling Machine for Viscous Liquids
Semi-Automatic Piston Filler For Thick Liquids
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.

Our Automatic Pump Fillers easily handles a wide range of container sizes, fill volumes and product types. While originally designed for filling creams, gels and lotions these fillers also handle water thin and heavy paste products. This machine easily fills cosmetic creams, heavy sauces, thick shampoo and hair conditioners, honey, hair gels, paste cleaners, and car wax.
Available in four different types of filling methods: The Volumetric Single Head Piston Filler comes in a variety of Piston sizes for either thin or thick products while the Single Head Positive Displacement Pump Filler can fill a wide range of product viscosities from 1oz to 1 gallon. The Gravity Filler fills thin liquids volumetrically-by-time and can be configured for two or four heads. The Two Head Overflow Filler provides exceptional cosmetic fills for thin products by offering an all-inclusive, user- friendly production line. Econoline Systems include a 28 inch Rotary Loading Turntable, 10 foot Conveyor, your choice of four Automatic Fillers, Handheld Chuck Capper, plus one Chuck and Insert, and a 28 inch Rotary Accumulating Turntable. These systems are built with anodized aluminum construction and mounted on casters with leveling legs requiring only minimal assembly. PLC touch screen controls and DC gear motors on the Turntables and Conveyor come standard.
APACKS Semi-Automatic Overflow Filler is typically used in packaging applications where a consistent visual (cosmetic) fill level is required. The desired product to be filled is held in a stainless steel reservoir, then pumped into a manifold to disperse product to each of your filling nozzles. Once the product reaches your desired cosmetic fill level in each bottle, excess product or foam overflows back to the reservoir. Advantages of the Overflow Filler include even fill levels, variable pressure pump speed control (to reduce foam), and ease of operation. This Filler is manufactured with a heavy duty 304 stainless steel, tig-welded frame and is available with four fill heads. It also comes standard with PLC Controls and touch screen HMI, stainless steel Filling Heads, and Product Supply Pump (dependent on product), plus many more features. Options are available for even more versatility. Overflow Fillers are commonly used for filling beverages and other thin products.
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.
