Overview
In industries where precision, safety, and traceability matter, its critical that your weighing and liquid filling equipment meet the stringent standards expected in this environment.
If you are dispensing product using liquid filling methods, including chemicals and oils, food and waxes, accurate dispensing, traceability, and regulatory compliance are non-negotiable.
Avery Weigh-Tronix liquid filling solutions are designed to address your unique challenges. Whether you’re dealing with hazardous environments, strict traceability requirements, or the need for legal for trade compliance, our market-leading liquid filling systems are designed to streamline your processes by increasing efficiency and eliminating product give-away.
Integrating seamlessly with above the surface, below surface and below bung hole filling machines and supplied with ATEX approved instrumentation, our weighing systems can accurately weigh volumes between 0.02kg and 1500kg and store up to 20 tare weights and optimum fill levels for versatility when switching product type. Our weight indicators optimise your filling and batching processes for large containers such as barrels, canisters, IBC tanks and large bags and smaller containers such as bottles, jars and small bags and integrate seamlessly to recipe formulation and process automation systems.
Key Challenges in Liquid Filling:
Preventing Product Giveaway:
Weight accuracy for product dispensing plays a critical role in the production of products that go through a liquid filling process. Whether you are charging by weight, or need to follow a precise product recipe, accurate weight readings will ensure you reduce product giveaway and provide consistency of your recipe mix to continually meet your internal and customer quality standards. Our overfill protection ensures that you will always dispense the exact amount of product, every time.
Traceability of product:
Keeping a track of your raw materials, the production process and the distribution of your finished product is a compulsory task as part of your regulatory compliance and quality standards. In the event of a product recall due to contamination, safety issues or quality concerns, our integrated data reports will help you to quickly identify affected batches, isolate them from the market and notify customers.
Working safely in hazardous environments:
For companies operating in hazardous environments that include liquid filling processes, ensuring safety, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency are paramount. ATEX approved instrumentation is the key to meeting these challenges effectively, reducing risks, and ensuring a safe and compliant working environment. Our weighing systems are fully ATEX approved and installed by ATEX trained engineers.
Legal for Trade Compliance: When charging by weight it’s important to ensure your equipment is calibrated to legal-for-trade standards. Our legal-for-trade solutions ensure you obtain accurate weight readings that hold legal significance, enabling you to trade with confidence.
Minimising Downtime:
Loss of productivity can be a major issue in production operations where delays can mean missed deadlines, increased cost and wasted resource. If equipment failure stops production, having a service provider who can respond quickly is critical. Avery Weigh-Tronix offer All-inclusive Weighcare Total cover on all liquid filling weighing solutions which includes annual calibrations and a 97% uptime guarantee to ensure your business keeps moving.
