Case Study #1:
Small neck opening, large fill size
Objective
To fill chemicals into fire extinguishers at high production rates and high accuracy.
Problem
Customer's small neck opening and large fill size created a challenge when trying to fill fire extinguishers. Customer's existing vacuum fillers were inaccurate and required weekly replacement parts (filters) and down time.
Solution
A PER-FIL® packaging line - MF-1 auger filler consisting of two Vacuum Fillers for bulk filling of fire extinguishers and auger fillers to top off to meet desired fill weights. Load cells positioned at each fill station ensure that the NET product weight in each fire extinguisher is exact. The custom designed vacuum filler eliminated design flaws from customer's previous equipment to minimize downtime and customer only replaces filters every 6 months!
