Nalbach launches new auger filler with integrated scale designed
specifically for manual, batch
filling, applications requiring high accuracy and low maintenance.
Countryside, IL (USA). November, 2004.
Expanding on its product solutions for dispensing powders, granulars, and
flakes, Nalbach Engineering
Company announces the release of an auger filling system, the
“S” series,
designed specifically for manual,
batch filling, applications. The “S” series is perfect for low volume, batch
applications and applications in which the density of the product varies
significantly. The system incorporates a scale to provide actual weight feedback
to the filler and uses two (2) fills per container. The first fill dispenses 90
– 95% (user programmable) of the target weight and the second “top-off” fill is
based on the actual calculated product density of the first fill. This system
monitors the product density on each and every fill providing superior fill
accuracies to 1/10th of one (1) percent!
Unlike “bulk and dribble” systems in which the first “bulk” fill is followed
by slow series of “dribble” fills until the target weight is met, the Nalbach
system’s “top off” fill is a single fast fill, significantly improving
throughput.
The filler’s control panel performs all set-up and operation of the entire
system. This “HMI” panel is an intuitive, icon-based, graphical user interface
with touch screen and comes standard with all Nalbach Servo Driven Auger
Fillers. This powerful controller provides a single point of user control for
the entire system making training, set-up and operation simple and
straightforward.
Nalbach’s servo driven auger fillers incorporate PLC controlled brushless,
direct drive, servo motor systems providing superior fill accuracy and
reliability while dramatically reducing mechanical failures and downtime by
eliminating most moving parts.
All Nalbach auger filling systems feature self centering tooling resulting in
faster changeovers and cleaning times, stainless steel product contact parts and
aluminum structural parts for exceptional durability, an empty hopper function
for quick product changeovers, “Smart Agitator” technology to extend agitator
life, product memory capable of storing filling parameters for up to 120 SKUs
with one button recall, and weight set-up software that quickly, easily and
automatically sets-up fill parameters.
This exciting new product is available worldwide through Nalbach’s direct sales
and manufacturers reps.
