"Per-Fil is like the cadillac of the toner industry. Any good sized toner manufacturer that you tour has at least one of these machines in house." 

Bill Henry, Jr. - General Manager
American Laser Products

"... it was a pleasure working with you and your team in the customization of our dispensing application. Your technical understanding and engineering resulted in precisely what we have been looking to accomplish improving efficiencies and reduction of labor all contributing to an ROI in the short term. Nice to be able to still find expertise in manufacturing in the USA…Keep up the great work!"

George S. Kouri - CEO
Sea Star Seafood

"Per-Fil's willingness and ability to test our materials surpassed others in the field. At the end of the day, it was the proven and guaranteed productivity that justified spending more than the prices quoted by others." 

Gary Reed, Owner
Dead Down Wind

"I have 2 of your auger fillers. They have been wonderful machines. My favorite thing about them is there versatility. You can practically fill anything from paste to water. We fill primarily lotions and soaps and body scrubs on them. Both machines are getting older now and have taken a beating so they need parts from time to time but they still run very good overall. Thanks for building good equipment! Keep it up!"

Judah Cleveland - Production Manager
The Common Sense Farm

"The biggest win for me [from the purchase of a Micro-Filler] was the quick ROI, it took us only three work orders to recoup the purchase price of this machine compared to what sub-contractors wanted to charge us to fill. Although we purchased this unit for one specific job I keep finding more and more jobs to utilize this equipment on. It is very easy to set-up, easy to operate, easy to clean and takes up very little space when not in use" 

Ron Phinney - Plant Foreman
Fresh Incorporated

"It was nice speaking with you about [purchasing] another Per-Fil filler system for our new Matrix [F/F/S]. The last system has been working faithfully for two and a half years, and in our harsh atmosphere, it is a testament to your company’s quality."

Ken Wolek, Manager
Sandtastik, Inc.

"We wanted to thank all of you who worked so quickly on getting us a replacement electrical box for our Per-Fil bagger immediately following the flood from Hurricane Floyd. Your quick action contributed greatly to salvaging a big portion of our products produced on that particular line. Also thanks for always giving us good service whenever we call needing help. We wish all our service providers were as helpful as Per-Fil."

Glenn Wheeler, Maintenance Manager
Atkinson Milling Co.

Case Study #1:
Different components into each cup

Objective
To fill two different components of a test kit into each cup.

Problem
Each ingredient must be filled ultra-precisely. Any disparity in the required amount of each diagnostic chemical would give an incorrect test result. Filling by hand was too slow and too unreliable.

Solution
The PER-FIL® STAR-FILL monoblock system was equipped with two nano-Fillers, each designed to dispense the required amount of each chemical into the cup. A load cell is positioned under each nano-Filler for gravimetric operation. The balance controls the auger ensuring optimum fill accuracy control. Automatic container handling is accomplished by a starwheel for precise container positioning under each fill nozzle.

nano-filler-W auger filler

Case Study #2:
Human tissue processing

Objective
To fill human tissue into vials minimizing labor and ensuring fill accuracy.

Problem
Processing and packaging of human skin tissue is extremely labor intensive as bone and tissue is cut and ground and packaged by hand. The training time for employees is 18 months and employee turnover is high due to the tedious nature of the work. This tissue bank sought to simplify the packaging operation by automating the filling and labeling of vials. Machine parts must be auto-cleavable.

Solution
The nano-W net weigh nano-filler precisely fills the human tissue into vials by simply setting the desired fill weight and pressing a button. A Mettler-Toledo balance controls the auger revolutions to ensure precise dosing. Fill data is downloaded via RS-232 port from the filler PLC to customer supplied PC and ink jet coder which prints lot code and weight on each vial. Product contact parts are easily removed and auto-cleaved.

MIcro 4C auger filler

Case Study #3:
High Speed fill of oral suspension powder

Objective
High speed filling of a non-free flow oral suspension powder into glass bottles.

Problem
The pharmaceutical manufacturer needed to fill 30 gr. of a non-free flowing dusty powder into glass bottles at rates of 70 bottles per minute with accuracy of +/- 1% or better.

Solution
The Micro-4C features four servo driven augers in one common hopper so four bottles are filled at one time. By directly augering the powder into each bottle, we have optimum control over fill accuracy and fill speed. The bottles are lifted at the fill position to insert the nozzle into the bottle ensuring a dust free dispense.

Rotary Continuous Motion auger filler

Case Study #4:
Filling fine powder at high production rates

Objective
To fill plastic bottles with 12 gr. of free flowing Penicillin at rates in excess of 350 cpm.

Problem
The filling and compaction of fine powder into containers at high production rates presents many difficulties: dust, product bridging and inaccurate fills - to name just a few.

Solution
PER-FIL® Model PF-28RCM 30 station ROTARY CONTINUOUS MOTION FILLING SYSTEM equipped with ORBITAL FUNNEL VIBRATION to speed up the product flow; VACUUM ASSIST to compact product; and BOTTOM RAIL TAMPING to settle product in container. Checkweigher feedback ensures optimum fill accuracy.

QUOTE

MF-SWC auger filler

Case Study #5:
Verifiable high accuracy filling

Objective
Verifiable, high accuracy filling of 210 mg - 3465 mg of Lidocaine and progesterone into glass bottles.

Problem
Empty glass bottles can vary as much as +/- 5 grams, eliminating a checkweigher after the fill as a possibility for ensuring fill accuracy. Customer required automatic filling and container handling.

Solution
PER-FIL® Model MF-SWC features a servo auger filler with conveyor. A load cell is positioned at the fill position. The conveyor chain is lowered for each fill cycle to isolate the bottle on the load cell and allow for fill-by-weight operation. Weight data is downloaded to a customer supplied PLC through an RS-232 port.
