For dry granular applications, choice of semi or fully automatic models.
Two new volumetric cup filling machines are available from All-Fill, Inc., (Exton, PA). Both machines debuted at Pack Expo, Booth #S-217; both are for dry granular filling requirements, such as seeds, popcorn, snack foods, candies, or gravel.
The VC-4 is a basic, semi-automatic model for low cycle applications. The VC-SV-4 is a fully automatic, servo driven model. The two-station VC-4 is an ideal, affordable solution for small businesses that are taking a first step into automated filling. Its simple design features a standard 2 cubic foot hopper with a stainless steel upper cup pocket, a UHMW rotating disk, and a UHMW lower cup pocket. No tools are required for cleaning and the removal of changeover parts.
For more demanding cup filling requirements, All-Fill offers the six-station, fully automatic VC-SV-4, which can fill up to 60 cups per minute. A control package consisting of an off-the-shelf PLC, a touch-screen operator interface, and a servo drive motor delivers both exceptional filling accuracy and volume adjustability. Multiple recipes can be set up and stored. The VC-SV-4 also employs a scraping system of multiple brushes to facilitate product flow.
Several options are available with the VC-SV-4. Filling weight feedback capability can be included when the machine is used with a checkweigher or a scale. A dust collection feature can also be added.
All-Fill, Inc. designs, manufactures, services, and supports a complete line of machinery for powder and liquid filling. Complementary equipment includes feeding and conveying of dry products for the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries, as well as high-speed checkweighing equipment sold under the Alpha Checkweighers brand.
