Filling Machine OPTIMA FT

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
• Synchronization interface for the bottling plant
• Vibrating the containers under the filling positions for product compaction and optimal utilization of the container’s volume

Dosing/Weighing

• 100% gross weighing
• 200 parameter sets can be stored in the recipe memory
• Gross weight check
• Identifying and adjusting for fluctuations in the bulk weight
• High-precision positioning for constant filling weight/volume

Containers

• Container feed as bulk goods via fully automatic sorting and optional storage bin
• Raising the container when filling to prevent dust accumulation
• Container classification using a portioning device
• Container classification using a rotary feeder
• Container classification via the infeed screw
• Centering the container for the optimal positioning of the containers below the work stations
• Continuous container transport
• Very gentle processing of the containers
• Processing different container shapes

Shapes

• User-friendly, fast and primarily tool-free format change
• Fully or semi-automated format change is optional

Design

• Can be designed as a monobloc combination with filling and closing modules
• Simple assembly (plug and play) – low installation costs
• Good visibility and accessibility
• Compact design with low space requirement
• Compact design with integrated control cabinet
• Min./max. sensors for jam detection upstream and downstream of the machine
• Products in contact with metal parts made of stainless steel and/or food-grade plastic
• Secure and sturdy mechanical system
• Few moving parts resulting in minimized sealing and maintenance costs

Drive

• Drive via wear-free servomotors

Cleaning

• Hygienic design for reliable production and easy cleaning
• Parts in contact with the product that are removable and are able to be cleaned with water for thorough cleaning

Handling

• Simple, clearly arranged operation and graphic display of the machine status on the HMI
• Optimal access due to swiveling arrangement of the HMI

Transport

• Conveyor chains in stainless steel or anti-static plastic are optional

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
• Quality assurance via suitable monitoring functions
• Low-maintenance operation via mechanical cam control
