GENERAL DETAILS
Laminated plastic tube filling & sealing machine in single head version is capable of filling & sealing of Lamy / Plastic tubes in fully automate manner. Essential automatic configurations, which include a tube storage cassette box, tube loading; orientation, positive fill and closure stations are included in the basic supply. Minimal maintenance interventions, and accommodating in lesser space with a thorough output up to 4,500 tubes per hour, are some of the main features. This machine complies with but also exceeds GMP standard
BASIC MACHINE is supplied complete with the following:
- Mechanically driven machine, built on Angles & Mounting plates in M.S. duly powder coated & cladded. All brackets in M.S, OHNS duly ENP plated. Turret is made of LM-04 powder coated (aluminum casting) All cams and levers in C.I casting. Contact parts with the Creams are of S.S.316 material. General parts & covers are ENP - weed blasted, powder coated or blackodized to avoid rust. S.S Covers guard all parts below main functioning area. The above/ below portions of the machine general parts are ENP or Anodized, therefore this machine is durable, rustproof and easy for cleaning.
- Tube holder set, for any One-tube size. Holders are designed as per sample, tube size, material and cap design.
- Suitable capacity single wall stainless steel hopper made of S.S 316 material.
- Cassette type feed device for automatically feeding empty tubes into the in-feed device, consisting of cassette -magazine fitted on the machine. Empty tubes, comes down from the cassette on a slider plate. The tilter holds the tube by vacuum, loads it & lodge it into the tube holders with a centering / pressing cone.
- Photo-electric tube print registration unit, which ensure correct positioning of the tube ‘I’ mark prior to Crimping / Sealing
- The No tube - No fill device. Prevents the dosing action if tube is not present
- Cream dosing Pump head. A piston-dosing pump, consisting of Teflon piston placed in S.S. cylinder carries out the dosing. One set of piston and cylinder can fill the following range. 3 - 12 cc. / 12 - 30 cc. / 30 – 100cc (Depending on material characteristic). Filling volume adjustment is done using touch screen PLC by Servo driven motor mechanism.
- Filling nozzle consisting of a Positive cut off system, helps eliminates product dripping / stringing, and maintains filling accuracy. (All contact parts are in food-graded material)
- Hot Air blowing station for melting Plastic-Laminated tubes. Hot Air is blown through a hot-air tool, on to the sealing area of the tube. When the tube is lifted for heating, a cooling block (Chilled water is circulated through it) to have a dent free seal.
- Tube Sealing and coding unit, which seals the heated part of the tube and then codes on the seal with metal female type stereos.
- Trimming unit, to trim the end portion of the tube, and to maintain tube length.
- S.S covers guard all parts below main functioning area of the machine
- Electrical system consists of a trouble-free electrical panel, along with operating panel board.
- Drive unit consist of 1 HP, 40 RPM 3-phase geared-motor fitted with sprocket for a fix speed. The drive is conveyed to the various functions with a mechanical Geneva Cam Indexer.
- Automatic discharge of tube. (Tail first)
- Machine is provided with all safety interlocks i.e. Air pressure, Guard interlocks, temp. setting using soft PLC.
OPTIONALS
- Electrically heated thermostat jacketed hopper for hot fill (In lieu of single wall hopper)
- Agitator driven by a ½ HP, 20 RPM, 3 phase vertical geared motor. Agitator blades & contact parts in S.S.316L, along with mounting, switches & temperature indicators
- A.C. Drive regulates the speed of the machine. Load on any of the stations triggers the A.C. drive to stop the motor.
- Curve / Wave & Half moon type sealing pattern are also available
- Low viscosity type product filling thru volumetric syringe is also available
- Modular aluminum frames fitted with acrylic guard. Each door is fitted with an interlocking doors switch, which ensure that the machine does not start if any of the guards are open
SALIENT FEATURES
- No tube no fill arrangement
- Overload protection of piston syringe
- Pneumatic cut off in nozzle to avoid product dripping
- Hopper & block mounting on quick release design for faster cleaning
- Surface hardening of piston & cylinder for higher life
- Very low weight variation (+/- 1%)
