Filling
- Filling process in protective gas for reduced oxygen contents in the packaging is optional
- Suction nozzles or suction bell for reduced dust emergence during filling is optional
- Filling systems coordinated to the product
- Vibrating the containers under the filling positions for product compaction and optimal utilization of the container’s volume
- Adding booklets, leaflets, spoon/spatula or give-aways possible as an option
Dosing/Weighing
- 100% tare/gross weighing
- Alternative volumetric or gravimetric positioning
- Gross weight check
- Identifying and adjusting for fluctuations in the bulk weight
- High-precision positioning for constant filling weight/volume
- Precise topping-up for small amounts for reducing the amount of product loss is optional
- Different dosing technologies are available
- Volumetric dosing with auger filler
Containers
- Container or cap feed as bulk goods via fully automatic sorting and optional storage bin
- Raising the container when filling to prevent dust accumulation
- Container transport using pucks for flexible production and fast conversion
- Cycled container transport
- Very gentle processing of the containers
- Processing different container shapes
Design
- Can be designed as a monobloc combination with filling and sealing modules
- Explosion protection model is optional
- Good visibility and accessibility
- Integrated separation for reject product and/or production patterns
- Running direction of the machine from right to left
- Multi-location working stations for high output
- Min./max. Sensors for jam detection upstream and downstream of the machine
- Modular machine design for maximum flexibility for future adaptations of products, packaging or functions
- Products in contact with metal parts made of stainless steel and/or food-grade plastic
Drive
- Drive via wear-free servomotors
- Torque controlled shut-off via sliding clutch, magnetic coupling or servo
- Precise compliance with the torque specification using the slipping clutch or permanent magnet coupling
Manufacture/Closing
- Process-reliable sealing using thermal sealing, induction or ultrasound is possible
- Processing packaging material from the role
Cleaning
- Hygienic design for reliable production and easy cleaning
Handling
- Simple, clearly arranged operation and graphic display of the machine status on the HMI
- HMI that can be moved linearly for optimal machine access and flexible operation is optional
- Optimal access due to swiveling arrangement of the HMI
Transport
- Product infeed via pressure container, pump, gravity or a customer-side conveyor system
- Return conveyor for empty pucks
- Conveyor chains in stainless steel or anti-static plastic are optional
- Production lines can be shut off individually
Quality Management
- Diverse monitoring functions using sensors or camera systems for quality assurance is optional
- Product savings through continuously monitoring the average and self-optimization
