Liquid filler

Suitable for pharmaceutical and diagnostic packaging, the new Mini-Monobloc liquid-filling system is designed for micro-tube applications and is said to perform an efficient sort, orient, feed, fill and cap operation. An operator loads the micro tubes into the vibratory sorting and feed bowl. After orientation, the containers are carried by the flange through the pockets of the turret-indexing assembly. Once in the turret, the micro-tubes are moved through the filling and capping functions. An advanced feature the co. describes is a servo-motor-operated chuck assembly that identifies rejected micro tubes.
