Stainless Steel Palletized
Drum Filling System
Model DF-5540-SS
|
|
|
This system allows pallet loads of empty drums to accumulate prior to
the filling station. A powered conveyor is on the scale and another after
the fill station for bung & label application.
This all stainless construction, palletized drum, IBC and pail filler
is a semi-automatic and sub-surface filling machine that uses a ball-screw
to raise and lower the entire pivoting boom and vertical carriage.
|
Description of Operation - DF-5540 |
|
- When a full load is discharged, a new load of empties conveys to the fill station and stops automatically.
- The operator then presses a button on the handle to release the boom and
guides the lance to the bung opening of any drum
- The operator releases the button and the boom is automatically locked in place.
- The operator then presses the start button, the lance travels to the bottom
of the drum, the load is tared out and the filling starts in slow
fill mode.
- When the liquid reaches the tip of the lance,
the machine automatically shifts into fast fill
cycle.
- Near the top, the machine cycles to dribble speed to top off the drum.
- When the lance retracts the operator presses the button on the handle again to release the boom and guide the lance to the next drum.
- A normal cycle takes about 1 minutes per drum
and the full pallet load about 4 minutes.
