The
MiniFill range of auger fillers provide precision controlled dosing
of small weights and volumes for laboratory, manually presented
small container filling applications through to fully automated
filling of containers, sachets and stick packs.
Up
to 15 fillers can be controlled by one control panel, ths is ideal
when mounting on multi-lane sachet & stickpack machines.
Round,
Tubular or Narrow hopper options are available to suit any type
of application.
Check
weigher feedback, independent variable speed on both Auger and Stirrer
motors, no tools strip down, Servo control resolution better than
1 in 4,000ths of a revolution, and PC link are all standard features
included within all MF-I MiniFill machines.
Use of directly coupled advanced specification servo motors gives the optimum control and performance of filling accuracy.
This is especially true in applications where dosing at high speeds when integrated with high-speed sachet or stickpack machines. Here the 'MF-I MiniFill' excells above all others. The lack of clutches, brakes, belts and chains eliminates expendable items, and thus reduces maintenance to an absolute minimum.

The dose required is entered via the operator pod, and settings include the ability to optimise auger and stirrer speeds in order to obtain the best performance for individual products. On multi-lane applications, individual control of each auger & stirrer ensures maximum possible accuracy. This provides maximum control over product through each individual filling head and elliminates tha accuracy variations found on multiple heads with common drives supplied by some of the less specialist companies.
All machine parameters for a given product and speed are saved against
a unique recipe number, thus providing quick and efficient changeover
times from one product to another. All product codes (Recipes) can
have fully descriptive titles, and an instant search facility is
provided to index through preset recipes in the event of a large
number being in use. The memory facility on the standard system
allows users to preset a massive 1,024 different recipes, this is
far more than would normally be required. All recipe settings are
stored to a plugin 'Flash' memory card for maximum security of all
machine / product data.
A tooling screen is available to the operator at all times, to advise
on specific tooling requirements related to each set of product
parameters.
When running in volumetric mode, the incredible stopping accuracy
is better than 0.09 degrees of the auger rotation! This is achieved
by the high specification drive system engineered around advanced
servomotor and encoder.
The
full colour touch screen control pod is both feature rich &
'State of the Art'. It is completely sealed against dust and liquids.
Much effort & thought has been applied to ensure simple intuitive
machine set-up and user friendliness.
Utilising
a password protected engineer's facility, all machines are installed
with standard software, with the precise machine configuration being
factory set. This provides an excellent basis for customer support,
with all control enhancements included at no extra cost, allowing
for machine configurations to be changed, should additional equipment
be incorporated at a later date. Use of flash memory & provision
of PC link connector enables all machines to be easily and speedily
upgraded with new functionality offered through our commitment to
ongoing development, providing you with the peace of mind that the
most advanced filler available today will also be the most advanced
filler tomorrow.
All
machines are manufactured to a very high standard in 316 stainless
steel.
MiniFill
auger fillers are high quality, high performance machines for applications
where optimum accuracy of small discharges is required with manual
& medium to high speed requirements, but still maintaining ease
of set-up and user friendliness.
As
with all GWA auger filling machines, models are available for both
volumetric & weight controlled filling, with fill ranges from
a few milligrams to 500g. MiniFill machines are capable of discharge
rates of over 100 fills per minute.
MF-I MiniFill' High performance Servo driven Auger fillers specifically designed for Stickpack & Sachet filling applications where a multiple of dosing heads are required on close centres. Filling heads can be mounted on 80mm centres with configurations available from a single head up to 10 filling heads, all with individual filling adjustment and feed-back facilities, controlled from a single panel. These fillers are aimed at all powder & granular applications requiring very precise & controlled filling at maximum speed.
