Flameproof Filling

Our product range can be certified according to relevant standards to safely fill your flammable products such as hand sanitiser, alcohol, paint and chemicals.

Each unique application will be analysed and managed to ensure a cost effective solution.

Gravity fed, level filling solutions

This filling system is the most widely used on Filmatic’s rotary fillers. Containers are filled up to a preset filling level. The level is set with the use of removable spacers. The valves are highly suitable for single strength products such as water and juice, and handle foaming products such as milk with ease. Recent developments on the level filling valves include a redesigned bellow that can be CIP’d without the need for disassembling the valve.

Vacuum assisted, level filling solutions

This filling system is most often used for slightly viscous products such as edible oil. A low level of vacuum is generated in the unfilled container, assisting the product to be sucked into the container. This solution is limited to the used of rigid circular containers.

Piston fillers

For more viscous products, and products with a solid content, the piston filler is a very viable filling system. Pistons filling machines are volumetric filling systems, meaning that a set volume is discharged into the container during every cycle.

Weigh fillers

Arguable the most accurate filling solution available. This is also the most technologically advanced filling solution and as such the most expensive. This system is often selected where high value product is filled. Filmatic recently developed a weight filling system specifically aimed at filling foaming product such as milk at a production rate that compares favourably with the production rate of level filling solutions. The newly developed system makes use of a pressurised supply system and a continually variable flowrate filling valve to achieve high production capacity with low foam generation.

Time filling

On the most basic Filmatic filler, time filling is used, where a valve is opened for a preset time. This filling system is very accurate if the product is homogenous and consistent. It is a lower cost solution but with a definite place in the entry level markets.
