Regarding dosing technology, it is often thought that the best precision will be obtained with weight filling. It’s not always accurate. Weight dosing is effective for doses above approximately 50g. For the dosage of the grains (like the dawn in grains) we can also favor the weight, because of the weight of each grain. For …

Lines for filling of dry chlorine products must use suitable materials. Easily machinable plastics are often used: PVC, HDPE, HDPP, PEEK… In some cases, the use of stainless steel or aluminium is necessary. In the case of aluminium, it is necessary to carry out a surface treatment. The use of an epoxy paint is effective …

To get the finest accuracy, the conception and the manufacture of the toolings are essaentials. The toolings stand for the auget, the funnel, and the agitators. Thanks to more than 90 years of expertise, we developped a huge number of toolings for a large number od dry products. And these numbers are continuously increasing as …

Otherwise, machines for filling liquid chlorine products should have the same advantages as other equipment: Simplicity of size changes (fast and without tools), Nozzles adapted to the products (especially nozzle trays for foaming products), The possibility to use the equipment for non-chlorinated products. PVC filling machines by MOM MOM designs and manufactures high speed automatic …

Depending on the products and packaging, the spheres must then be calculated. The formulas for calculating the spheres can also be found in the EN60079-10 standard. Calculating spheres does not prevent common sense. In the case of light gases (less dense than air) a cone-shaped ceiling with a suction at the highest point should be …

No specific constraints. Filling with bicarbonate does not present an ignition risk. There is no need to use corrosion-resistant materials either. For parts in contact with the product, ask for 316L stainless steel. In addition to being food grade, this stainless steel is particularly robust. MOM equipment MOM builds a complete range of bicarbonate filling …

Complete packaging line To limit the number of operators on a production line, contact a manufacturer directly. He can offer you additional equipment for the start and end of the line, or even a line controlled by a single operator. For example, you will find : Rotary or linear feeding tables, bottle turners, or feeding …

Flap valves for fluid to semi-viscous liquids In the case of fluid and slightly viscous liquids, manufacturers use so-called poppet nozzles. Flap valves are divided into several categories. The “simple” flap valves are valves which are sealed by simply lowering the flap into the valve seat. The advantage of the simple valve is the absence …

Plunge cane spouts Historically, the first solution found to avoid foam was to fill bottles from the bottom. The spout enters the packaging, then comes out as it is filled. This method solves foaming problems in most cases. However, plunge rod spouts have many drawbacks. The first is a drop in rates: the nozzle must …

Choosing a high speed filling machine A high speed filling machine is designed to fill thousands of packagings per hour. It should reach this speed whilst maintaining its accuracy and cleanliness, and eventually following specific constraints such as ATEX, dust, acids or bases,… In this article, we will answer the following questions: How does such …

How to choose between volumetric or weight dosing for your powders and grains Dosing dry products with a vertical screw is adapted to filling a wide range of powders or grains, with a high precision and care for your product (please see here for more details on dosing your powder products).There are two methods for …

Choosing the right technology to fill powder There are different technologies to fill powder products, each with their own set of advantages: the vibrating conveyor, the valve, thevertical screw and thehorizontal screw. Which technology is the right one for you? The characteristics of your powder and the performance you expect from your filling machine will …

Piston dosing to fill fluid and viscous liquids Piston dosing is a volumetric dosing technology that is particularly efficient to fill viscous and pasty liquids (such as honey, glue, cream, etc). When classic gravity flow is not enough for your product, it is necessary to “push” it in its container. That is the piston’s role. …
