- Typical throughput
- For this class of two-lane inline pot filler, speeds commonly range from 60 to 120 pots per minute, depending on pot size and product viscosity.
- Pot material compatibility
- Units of this type typically handle pre-formed plastic (e.g., PP, PS, PET) or aluminium foil pots.
- Sealing mechanism
- Commonly features heat sealing for film lids, ensuring product integrity and extended shelf life.
- Filling accuracy
- Often equipped with volumetric or piston fillers, providing consistent and accurate dosing for various product types.
- Control system
- Modern units, such as one with Allen Bradley PLC controls, typically offer precise control over filling, sealing, and indexing functions.
- Power supply
- Typically requires a three-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with a compressed air supply for pneumatic components.
- Footprint
- Inline machines generally have a longer, narrower footprint compared to rotary fillers, requiring sufficient linear space within a production line.
