Overflow Filling Equipment works on the principle of "filling to a level" inside a container. These filling machines are ideal for thin to medium viscosity products and work especially well with products that foam.
Overflow filling machinery is also the best choice for filling products where the internal volume of a container may vary slightly, such as glass ketchup bottles. By filling to a level, the overflow filler insures an even, consistent fill, perfect for shelf display.
Liquid Packaging Solutions' Gravity Fillers provide time based filling solutions. An elevated tank on the filling machine holds product until containers are in place under the fill nozzles. The fill tubes or nozzles then open and release product for a pre-set amount of time.
Gravity filling machines are best suited for free flowing products like water and ink. However, special nozzles are available for these filling machines to help prevent drips and control foaming in other products.
Liquid Packaging Solutions matches the pumps on each Pump Filling Machine to the customers needs and product. Pump filling equipment may be time based, meaning that the pump is set to run for a pre-set time each cycle. In the alternative, a pump filling machine may be pulse based. For example, on a gear pump, each "pulse" may be a rotation or partial rotation of the gear.
Though pump filling machines are ideal for thicker products and products with particulates, pump fillers can handle a wide range of viscosities, which can make this filling machine the right choice for those packaging several different products.
Piston Filling Machines from Liquid Packaging Solutions use a volumetric filling principle. The piston draws back, allowing a certain amount of product from the supply system to enter the nozzle. This same amount of product is then pushed out of the nozzle and into the waiting container.
Piston fillers are ideal for thick or high viscosity products. A piston filler is the perfect solution for pastes or sealants, allowing for an accuracy of fill from 1/2 to 1% by volume.
Liquid Packaging Solutions offers custom filling machinery and specialty fillers as well as our standard overflow, gravity, piston and pump filling machines.
One of these liquid fillers is an economical siphon filler for free-flowing, low viscosity products. The siphon filler will allow for filling containers up to one gallon.
Corrosion resistant filling equipment in both tabletop and automatic models are also available with HDPE construction. These filling machines allow solvents, acids and other harsh chemicals to be economically packaged.
