- Typical capacity
- For this class of equipment, mechanical speeds commonly range from 60 to 120 tubes per minute, with actual output depending on product viscosity and tube size.
- Tube dimensions
- Units of this type typically accommodate tube diameters from 10 mm to 60 mm and lengths from 50 mm to 250 mm.
- Working stations
- Tube fillers and sealers commonly feature 8 to 12 stations for various processes including tube loading, filling, sealing, and ejection.
- Filling accuracy
- High-performance machines are generally designed to offer filling accuracy within +/- 0.5%.
- Power supply
- Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with an appropriate power rating for the motor and heating elements.
- Air consumption
- Pneumatic systems are common, requiring a compressed air supply, typically 6-8 bar, with specific consumption depending on operational speed.
