PTI – Filler
Application:
The PTI – Filling machine is used for filling liquid media into, for example, vacuum trays or similar compartmentalized media. The machine doses based on a piston pump principle, where the stroke length can be varied. The system is pneumatically driven and PLC-controlled.
The pump can perform a single stroke when activated by a push button, or can pump continuously on a signal from a timer, sensor, or from other machines. The pump and various valves are selected and designed for the specific task, taking into account viscosity, gentle filling, foam, and other factors that influence the filling process.
Advantages:
The filling machine is designed and constructed for the specific task, based on the customer’s requirements and desires. The fixed cycle sequence helps ensure correct operation, and that the machine is easy to restart after any operational stops, emergency stops, etc. The machine can perform several different filling tasks.
The control is built so that it can run automatically or semi-automatically. The machine is also designed to be easy to disassemble and clean.
Design Data:
The filling machine is made of stainless steel and other FDA-approved materials, and designed based on DS/EN 1672/2 (hygiene requirements for food machinery).
The filling machine is designed to minimize the risk of transferring contaminants to the medium.
Customer-specific Options:
Custom-specific options can be manufactured depending on the task at hand, the following are examples:
- The container/tank is elevated above the machine.
- Container with agitator to keep the product homogeneous during bottling.
