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.

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.
