Production Capacity
Output Demand: Select according to the production scale and output requirements of the enterprise. For small and medium-sized production with not high output requirements, it is sufficient that the filling speed and production efficiency of the servo rotor pump double-head filling machine can meet the needs. However, if there are plans to expand the production scale, it is also necessary to consider whether the equipment has a certain room for capacity improvement.
Filling Speed: The filling speeds of different models of filling machines vary. Generally, the number of bottles filled per minute or per hour is indicated. According to the actual production rhythm, select a filling machine that can match the production process to avoid production bottlenecks.
Filling Accuracy
Accuracy Requirements: Different industries and products have different requirements for filling accuracy. In industries such as pharmaceuticals and food, relatively high filling accuracy is usually required to ensure product quality and accurate dosage. The filling accuracy usually needs to reach around ±0.5% to ±1%. For some chemical products with relatively low accuracy requirements, the accuracy standard can be appropriately relaxed.
Metering Methods: The metering methods of filling machines include electronic metering, volumetric metering, etc. The electronic metering method usually has higher accuracy and flexibility and can achieve precise metering by accurately controlling the servo motor. Volumetric metering measures the material through a specific volumetric chamber and can also ensure a certain degree of accuracy. You can select an appropriate metering method according to the product characteristics and accuracy requirements.
Material Characteristics
Viscosity: The viscosity of the material is an important consideration when selecting a filling machine. Although the servo rotor pump filling machine can adapt to materials with different viscosities, for materials with extremely high viscosity, it may be necessary to select a specially designed rotor pump or add auxiliary devices to ensure that the materials can be smoothly conveyed and filled.
Fluidity: Materials with poor fluidity may require higher pressure or more special conveying methods to ensure smooth filling. For materials with good fluidity, attention should be paid to preventing dripping or splashing during the filling process.
Particle Size: If the material contains particles, the size, shape, and content of the particles need to be considered. The rotor pump and filling head of the filling machine need to be able to accommodate the passage of particles to avoid blockages, and at the same time, ensure that the particles will not affect the filling accuracy.
Equipment Quality and Reliability
Brand and Reputation: Select filling machine manufacturers with well-known brands and a good reputation. Their products are usually more guaranteed in terms of quality, performance, and after-sales service. You can understand the brand's credibility by consulting relevant information, asking peer enterprises, or checking customer reviews.
Material and Manufacturing Process: The parts of the filling machine that come into contact with the material should be made of materials that meet the hygiene standards of industries such as food and pharmaceuticals, such as stainless steel, food-grade plastics, etc., to ensure that the material is not contaminated. At the same time, excellent manufacturing processes can ensure the stability and durability of the equipment and reduce the probability of failures.
Key Components: Pay attention to the quality and brands of key components of the filling machine, such as the servo motor, rotor pump, metering system, etc. High-quality key components can improve the overall performance and reliability of the equipment, and reduce maintenance costs and repair frequencies.
Degree of Automation and Ease of Operation
Automation Functions: Consider the degree of automation of the filling machine according to the production needs and labor costs of the enterprise. In addition to the basic filling function, some filling machines may also have functions such as automatic feeding, automatic bottle arranging, and automatic labeling, which can further improve production efficiency and the level of automation, but the price of the corresponding equipment will also be higher.
Operation Interface: The operation interface should be simple and easy to understand, facilitating operators to set parameters, debug the equipment, and perform daily maintenance. The touch screen operation interface is usually more intuitive and convenient than the traditional button interface, which can reduce the training time and operation errors of operators.
After-sales Service
Technical Support: Various problems may occur during the use of the filling machine, and the manufacturer needs to provide timely and effective technical support. Find out whether the manufacturer has a professional technical team that can provide services such as remote guidance and on-site maintenance, as well as the response time and the efficiency of problem-solving.
Spare Parts Supply: Ensure that the manufacturer can provide an adequate supply of original spare parts and that the supply cycle of spare parts is short. In this way, when the equipment fails and needs to replace spare parts, production can be resumed as soon as possible, reducing downtime.
Training Services: High-quality manufacturers usually provide training services for users, including equipment operation training, maintenance training, etc., so that operators can master the use method of the equipment proficiently and extend the service life of the equipment.
