At Karmelle, we specialise in end-to-end solutions – like this complete liquid packaging line, manufactured for Masons of Yorkshire in 2018. Automating the liquid packaging process offers considerable production benefits, from reduced product-wastage, to increased productivity. For those producing smaller batches, however, a semi-automatic filling machine is often the best solution.
The challenge:
A customer in the personal care sector asked us to supply semi-automatic liquid filling machinery for shampoos and body lotions. The system needed to be versatile and easy-to-operate.
The solution:
Our team designed and manufactured a compact VIPF500 S1 Volumetric Filling Machine, suitable for 500ml bottles and 5 litre jerry cans.
The single head machine is operated by a simple foot peddle, and draws product from the client’s tank via a transfer pump.
While this particular filling machine will be used to pack shampoo and body lotion, VIPF500s are suitable for a range of applications – including food and drink, chemical and oil filling. Available with one or two heads, they are designed to calculate and adjust for over and under flow, and can be easily paired with a capping machine.
VIPF500 S1 & S2 Volumetric Liquid Filling Machine:
Ideal if:
- You are bottling small-to-medium batches.
- You want to bottle more accurately in order to reduce wastage and improve efficiency.
- You are considering investing in an entry level filling machine with a small footprint, but need something larger than a Bench Top Filler.
- Ease of use is key.
