Filling and Closing Machine InlineCan OPTIMA CFS

Filling

• Filling process in protective gas for reduced oxygen contents in the packaging
• Suction nozzles or suction bell for reduced dust emergence during filling
• Filling systems coordinated to the product
• Multi-component filling with different volumes
• Vibrating the containers under the filling positions for product compaction and optimal utilization of the container's volume
• Adding booklets, leaflets, spoon/spatula or give-aways

Dosing/Weighing

• 100% tare/gross weighing
• Alternative volumetric or gravimetric positioning
• Gross weight check
• Identifying and adjusting for fluctuations in the bulk weight
• High-precision portioning for constant filling weight/volume
• Precise topping-up for small amounts for reducing the amount of product loss
• Different dosing technologies are available
• Volumetric dosing with auger filler

Containers

• Container or cap feed as bulk goods via fully automatic sorting and storage bin
• Raising the container when filling to prevent dust accumulation
• Container transport using pucks for flexible production and fast conversion
• Cycled container transport
• Very gentle processing of the containers
• Processing different container shapes

Design

• Can be designed as a monobloc combination with filling and sealing modules
• Explosion protection model
• Integrated separation for reject product and/or production patterns
• Running direction of the machine from right to left
• Multi-location working stations for high output
• Min./max. Sensors for jam detection upstream and downstream of the machine
• Modular machine design for maximum flexibility for future adaptations of products, packaging or functions
• Products in contact with metal parts made of stainless steel and/or food-grade plastic

Drive

• Drive via wear-free servomotors
• Torque controlled shut-off via sliding clutch, magnetic coupling or servo
• Precise compliance with the torque specification using the slipping clutch or permanent magnet coupling

Manufacture/Closing

• Process-reliable sealing using thermal sealing, induction or ultrasound
• Processing packaging material from the stack
• Processing packaging material from the role

Cleaning

• Hygienic design for reliable production and easy cleaning

Handling

• Simple, clearly arranged operation and graphic display of the machine status on the HMI
• HMI that can be moved linearly for optimal machine access and flexible operation
• Optimal access due to swiveling arrangement of the HMI

Transport

• Product infeed via pressure container, pump, gravity or a customer-side conveyor system
• Return conveyor for empty pucks
• Conveyor chains in stainless steel or anti-static plastic

Quality Management

• Diverse monitoring functions using sensors or camera systems for quality assurance
• Product savings through continuously monitoring the average and self-optimization
• Quality assurance via suitable monitoring functions
• Low-maintenance operation via mechanical cam control
