Mixing and fill systems
We find there is a growing demand for integrated systems, where the mixing system matches the filling system.
Over the years we have been involved the following projects:
Sterilising tablet system:
Blending the powder, feeding tablet press, foiler, collator - cartonner and end of line packing worth £400k. New technology to the client, we source the equipment in the Uk and Europe. This project involved a complete refurbishment of the equipment and extensive commissioning & training.
Wax mixing, feed and filling:
We have developed a number of these systems, ranging from a two head in-line machine to a 8 head rotary first in the industry. Due to the nature of the product , we design an integrated mixing system which feeds a unique liquid transfer system, finitely controlled until in is finally filled and cooled and packed. These projects have ranged from 20 jars/minute to 80 jars/minute and 30k to £120k costs.
Carpet Fresh powder:
This was a continuous granulated powder feeding, mixing, filling and packing plant, worth £350k.
Aerosol mixing and filling:
There have been a number of Aerosol plant projects over the years, which generally have dedicated mixing plants. The products made have been deodorants, shave foam, mousses, Hair spray and air fresheners. The projects have varied from upgrading existing lines with in-line checkweigher systems and water baths to Full new systems. The largest being a complete installation including, gas storage, mixing facility, twin filling line, with external gassing house using dual propellant, check weighing, water bath and end of line systems.
Service systems
We have managed a number of projects requiring services and we have designed, sourced and implemented services in:
-
Electrical sub stations
-
Compressed air systems
-
Steam Boiler installations
-
Demineralised water
-
Clean in Place systems.
