Continuous liquid filler<br />
saves costs and labour<br />
Cabinplant’s continuous<br />
liquid filler (CLF) which<br />
is now available from<br />
Sealpac UK & Partners in the<br />
UK, offers increased efficiency<br />
with less labour required for<br />
difficult-to-fill products into<br />
a variety of containers.<br />
These high-speed filling<br />
machines rely on vibration<br />
to distribute product into<br />
containers safely and<br />
efficiently. Their vibratory<br />
rotary tables are available<br />
with 14, 18, or 24 filling<br />
stations to match specific<br />
needs for speed and volume.<br />
The CLF machine provides<br />
reliable and precise filling<br />
of liquids such as tomato<br />
sauce, oil and brine, soups<br />
or marinades. It is fitted with<br />
a specially designed filling<br />
valve which allows liquid<br />
to flow into the container<br />
opening while avoiding any<br />
spillages. Final filling is even<br />
precise enough to allow on-thefly<br />
adjustments to the dosage<br />
to ensure each container<br />
reaches its target volume.<br />
A high capacity of up to<br />
300 glass containers per<br />
Sealpac says the CLF is a highly flexible and economical choice for users<br />
minute for a single processing<br />
line is offered, and it is also<br />
capable of handling liquids<br />
containing small particulates.<br />
A mobile version of the CLF<br />
is also available.<br />
Sealpac UK & Partners<br />
is now the sole distributor<br />
of Cabinplant products for<br />
customers across the UK market.<br />
“Although previously<br />
just known for traysealers<br />
and thermoformers, we are<br />
expanding the range to offer<br />
full-line production solutions,<br />
to also include Cabinplant’s<br />
multihead weighing and<br />
high-speed liquid filling<br />
equipment,” explains Kevin<br />
Witheford, managing Director<br />
of Sealpac UK & Partners.<br />
The packaging company<br />
is investing in full line<br />
automated solutions which<br />
aim to optimise production<br />
efficiency.<br />
