How does a filling machine work? All the tips that you should know

Liquid filling process: automatic cap removal machine → automatic bucket brushing machine → automatic bucket loading machine → automatic flushing and disinfection →

automatic filling → automatic cap sorting, cap sleeve and cap pressing → light inspection → automatic heat shrink film → automatic bagging ( (Including conveyor belt)

Work process

The process of the liquid filling machine is generally as follows: boxes containing empty bottles are stacked on the pallet, sent to the unloading machine by the conveyor belt, the pallets are unloaded one by one,

the boxes are sent to the unloading machine along with the conveyor belt, and the empty bottles are sent from After being taken out of the box, the empty box is sent to the box washing machine via the conveyor belt.

After being cleaned, it is then transported to the cartoning machine so that bottles containing beverages can be loaded into it.

The empty bottles taken out from the unloading machine are sent to the bottle washing machine for disinfection and cleaning by another conveyor belt.

After being inspected by the bottle inspection machine and meeting the cleaning standards, they enter the filling machine and capping machine. Beverages are put into bottles by filling machines.

The bottles filled with beverages are capped and sealed by the capping machine and transported to the labeling machine for labeling.

After labeling, they are sent to the cartoning machine and loaded into boxes, and then sent to the palletizer to be stacked on pallets and sent to the warehouse.

A filling machine works by accurately dispensing a specific quantity of product into containers. Here are some tips and key points to understand how filling machines work:

Product Preparation: Before operating the filling machine, ensure that the product to be filled is properly prepared and ready for filling. This may involve filtering, heating, cooling, or other processing steps depending on the nature of the product.

Container Handling: The containers to be filled are placed onto the conveyor or other feeding mechanism of the filling machine. It's important to ensure that the containers are clean, undamaged, and properly aligned for accurate filling.

Filling Mechanism: The filling machine is equipped with a filling mechanism that dispenses the product into the containers.

The type of filling mechanism varies depending on the product's viscosity, foaming characteristics, and other factors. Common types of filling mechanisms include piston fillers, gravity fillers, vacuum fillers, and auger fillers.

Measurement and Control: Filling machines are equipped with controls to measure and adjust the quantity of product dispensed into each container. This ensures accuracy and consistency in filling operations. The controls may include settings for fill volume, speed, and other parameters.

Container Sealing: After filling, the containers may need to be sealed to prevent leakage or contamination. Some filling machines are equipped with sealing mechanisms, while others may require additional equipment for sealing, such as capping machines or induction sealers.

Cleaning and Maintenance: Regular cleaning and maintenance of the filling machine are essential to ensure optimal performance and hygiene. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for cleaning procedures and schedule preventive maintenance to avoid downtime and prolong the life of the equipment.

Safety Precautions: Always follow safety guidelines when operating filling machines, including wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, observing safety interlocks, and training operators on safe operation procedures.

By understanding these key points and following best practices, you can effectively operate a filling machine to achieve accurate and efficient filling of containers.
