How does the Thousand-litre aseptic filler work?
Choose between semi-automatic and automatic filling modes to suit your production requirements. This drum, tote and bin filler supports reliable, large-volume filling.
Semi-automatic filling: The operator inserts the bag neck into the filling head, initiating an automatic sequence that opens, fills and closes the bag. During filling, the temperatures of the steam barriers and filling valve are monitored and controlled to help maintain aseptic conditions.
For 1,000-litre bags, the filling head moves into the downward position to distribute the product evenly, particularly when filling viscous products, and help prevent folds from forming in the bag corners.
Automatic aseptic filling: An optional automatic bag feeder (ABF) for 3–20-litre bags manages bag loading, cap opening, filling and cap closing, reducing the need for operator intervention.
