Wick Und Schaefer Rotary Filler with Bottle Cap Sorter and Bottle Capper

• Filling of liquid and semi-liquid products into bottles across various industries.
• Packaging of beverages such as juices, water, and spirits.
• Dispensing of pharmaceutical liquids, cosmetics, and personal care products.
• Handling of food products like sauces, oils, and dairy items.
• Integration into automated bottling lines for consistent product output.

Typical capacity

For this class of rotary filler, capacities commonly range from 1,000 to 10,000 bottles per hour, depending on the number of filling heads and product viscosity.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage requirements based on motor size and ancillary components.

Bottle size range

Rotary fillers are generally adaptable to a wide range of bottle volumes, typically from 50ml up to 2 litres, with change parts often required for different formats.

Filling accuracy

Modern rotary fillers are designed for high filling accuracy, commonly achieving tolerances of +/- 0.5% to 1% by volume, crucial for product consistency and cost control.

Capping mechanism

This type of integrated unit commonly features a pick-and-place or rotary capping system, suitable for screw caps, snap-on caps, or ROPP caps, often with adjustable torque settings.

Materials of construction

Components in contact with the product are typically made from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316L) to ensure hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Footprint

A combined rotary filler, cap sorter, and capper for this class of equipment typically requires a floor space of approximately 2m x 2m to 4m x 3m, plus access for operation and maintenance.

• What types of liquids can this machine fill?

  This type of rotary filler is typically suitable for a wide range of free-flowing and semi-viscous liquids, including water, juices, oils, sauces, spirits, and some cosmetic products. The specific filling technology (e.g., volumetric, gravimetric) determines suitability for different viscosities.

• Are change parts required for different bottle sizes or cap types?

• How is the machine cleaned and sanitised?

• What level of automation does this system offer?

• What maintenance is typically required for this equipment?

Bottle filling equipment remains a reliable workhorse in pharmaceutical and laboratory settings. Buyers typically value machines offering consistent fill accuracy, straightforward maintenance, and durable construction. When purchasing used units, inspecting seals, calibration history, and cleaning accessibility proves essential. Industry sentiment favours models with simple mechanical designs over complex systems, as these tend to perform more predictably across different viscosity ranges. Stainless steel components and documented service records are commonly sought features. Equipment generally holds value well given its essential role in production workflows.
