Filling Machines

Accutek has been providing customers with superb liquid filling machines for over thirty years. Product characteristics determine the bottle filling machine needed for your products. The goal is to deliver a precise amount of product to the consumer in an attractive bottle that promotes your offering over the competition.

There are several filler technologies available, and each one works best for a specific range of liquids. An overflow filler is a great choice for foamy industrial cleaners but should not be used for viscous creams. A piston filler can work great for salsa but not so well for perfume.

Accutek manufactures a variety of liquid filling machines such as Inline filling systems. Such systems are capable of filling almost any product into an assortment of bottle types. Accutek Inline filling systems use the latest technologies to achieve the highest speeds and most accurately filled bottles in the packaging industry. Everyone in the industry appreciates as Accutek liquid filling systems can accommodate free-flowing liquid or thick products. Products that foam, products that string or drip, products that have particulates or chunks, and dry products.

Filling System Issues to Consider

Peanut butter is put in a bottle by a liquid filling system, as is acetone. Peanut butter and acetone are both liquids but at opposite ends of the viscosity range. The bottle filling machinery needed to move peanut butter into a bottle differs significantly from the liquid filling machinery handling acetone.

Peanut butter is best handled by a piston filler that keeps the product warm, and therefore at a lower viscosity, driven by a strong pneumatic cylinder. Acetone can be gravity fed into an overflow filler.

Low vs. High Viscosity

The first step in identifying a liquid filling solution that matches your needs is to identify  the characteristics of your product that basically depends on the nature of the product it has. For example- any product may have water-like low viscosity or higher viscosity like toothpaste. This will assist you in determining equipment solutions. Product viscosity affects several areas, your type of metering system, your fill rate, and a few other variables within the production equation. Identifying product viscosity is a necessary step in the process.

Type of Bottles for Filling Machines

Knowing the type of bottle that you are filling is also essential when trying to find your best filling equipment options. Whether you are filling glass or plastic, round or square, tall or short, small or large openings, stable or unstable bottles, these are just a few of the questions regarding bottle type that can affect the development and design of your liquid filling machine system.

Filling Machine Fill Rate

It should come as no surprise that one of the more significant questions from the production side of things is, “how many bottles can I fill per production shift?” Is the best answer a single handheld, semi-automatic machine, an intermediate, full line automatic solution, or an automated rotary system? Fill rate is influenced by product viscosity, bottle type, and fill volume.

Filling Machine Fill Volume

Knowing your specific fill volume sounds easy enough. However, it is essential when determining other related factors like fill rate, product viscosity, and metering systems. You may have different fill accuracy requirements depending on your industry that you need to follow to remain compliant with specific industry standards. Therefore, having a solid grasp of your required fill volumes and your industry requirements are crucial to your overall production success.

Finding the Best Liquid Filling Systems for Your Needs

Your product characteristics, wet or dry, watery, or a thick paste drive liquid bottle filling system selection. When you are choosing a liquid filler, you need to know product viscosity, bottle type, required fill rate, specific fill volume, and the metering or filling system that best matches your needs.
