| Wetted parts | SUS 304 product contact, CIP-ready |
| Key control | Fill accuracy, closure integrity, CIP time |
Maintenance effort should follow the wear map, not the machine layout. Seals, capping inserts, guide rail blocks and filters account for most unplanned stops; painting and polishing account for none. A short daily check on those four items beats a long monthly inspection.
Check and adjust the filling speed, pressure, and volume settings as needed to meet your production requirements and quality standards.
Four variables sit behind a fill number: the dosing principle, the product temperature, the bottle geometry, and the condition of the valve or piston seal. A machine that holds its tolerance on the factory test can drift in the plant when the product arrives warmer or the bottle wall gets thinner.
| Principle | Doses by | Fails when |
|---|---|---|
| Gravity | Fill level in the bottle | Bottle geometry varies |
| Volumetric | Chamber volume | Valve seal wears |
| Isobaric | Volume under counter-pressure | Pressure or temperature drifts |
| Piston | Displacement | Product carries solids |
| Load cell | Net weight | Product temperature moves |
The Gravity Filling Machine for Still Water is the reference unit for this configuration.
Rated output at the specified format, fill accuracy on a defined sample, closure torque or seal measurement, and a timed changeover with the buyer watching. Anything not measured before sign-off becomes a discussion after the final payment.
Where this becomes a line rather than a single machine, the Volumetric Filling Machine for Still Water is the starting point.
The parts cost is small; the time is not. A format change touches star wheels, guide rails, grippers, the cap chute and the recipe. On a line with two formats and two changes a day, the annual hours lost exceed the price of a second small machine in many plants.
The same question is worked through from another angle in What Are the Benefits of Using a PET Filling.
Gravity fills to a level set by a tube, so accuracy depends on the bottle. A volumetric filler measures a chamber volume, which keeps it accurate when the format changes. Gravity is simpler and cheaper; volumetric is more repeatable when the bottle changes.
Yes, with change parts: star wheels, guide rails, grippers and a recipe. The parts are cheap compared with the changeover time, which is why most plants specify one dominant format.
From tens of minutes to over an hour, set by the circuit volume and the soil. It is a fixed cost per production day and should be planned as downtime, not squeezed into the shift.
Valve seals, piston seals, capping head inserts, guide rail blocks and one set of change parts for the second format. These are the items that stop a line for days when they fail.
