Semi-Automatic Piston Filling Machine for Free Flowing Liquids
Semi-Automatic Piston Filler For Thin Liquid
APACKS entry level tabletop piston filling machine is highly accurate, versatile, and extremely user friendly. This volumetric piston filler draws liquids and other low viscosity products directly from a tank or drum which eliminates the need for a product hopper. This piston filler can also be used as a metering pump to dispense a controlled volume if necessary. Dis-assembly and cleaning is extraordinarily easy and is usually accomplished in a matter of minutes (no tools required). 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.
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.
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.
The Dry Product Filling Machine Weigh and Fill System is primarily utilized for products like ground coffee, seeds, spices, beads, soap powder, or dry chemicals. The target fill range varies from a 1/2 oz. to 5 lbs. By using a weigh hopper that drops the entire weighment at once, and an electro magnetic vibrator, this filler is both fast and accurate at high speeds. It has an automatic scale, automatic tare, automatic feed, and speed controls for bulk, and dribble feed rates. This is the ideal filling machine when speed and accuracy are of upmost importance.
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.
