Product Features

The machine’s superior performance is driven by a suite of advanced features engineered for peak efficiency and reliability.

• Ultra-High Speed Operation: Capable of filling and capping up to 120 tubes per minute, this machine dramatically increases production throughput to meet large-volume demands without compromising precision.
• Precision Servo-Driven Filling System: Utilizes advanced servo technology and positive displacement pumps to ensure exceptional filling accuracy (±1% or better). This eliminates product giveaway, ensures consistent dosage, and guarantees every tube meets the specified weight.
• Automatic Tube Feeding & Orientation: An integrated vibrating bowl or pick-and-place system automatically feeds empty tubes into the production line and orients them correctly, eliminating manual handling and boosting overall line efficiency.
• Robust Capping Mechanism: Equipped with a servo-driven capping head, the machine applies caps with consistent and adjustable torque. This ensures a perfect, tamper-evident seal every time, preventing leaks and maintaining product integrity.
• Intelligent Touchscreen HMI: Features a user-friendly, color touchscreen interface for intuitive control. Operators can easily set parameters, monitor real-time production data, track output, and diagnose issues, simplifying operation and maintenance.
• Stainless Steel Construction & CIP/SIP Compatibility: Constructed primarily from high-grade 304 or 316L stainless steel with polished surfaces, the machine meets stringent hygiene standards. It is designed for easy cleaning and, in many configurations, supports Clean-in-Place (CIP) and Sterilize-in-Place (SIP) protocols.
• No-Tube, No-Fill & No-Cap Detection: Integrated sensors detect missing tubes or caps, automatically pausing the filling or capping process to prevent waste and ensure only complete, properly sealed products proceed down the line.
• Flexible Changeover: Engineered for quick and easy changeovers between different tube diameters and lengths, minimizing downtime and enhancing flexibility for multi-product manufacturing environments.
