ING50 Automactic Tube Filling and Sealing Machine

This machine is designed for filling, sealing, and date printing of hose-packaged products in the daily chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries. It features a mechanically driven structure that ensures smooth operation, high speed, excellent performance, low noise, simple construction, and easy operation/maintenance with a low failure rate.

The equipment is designed and manufactured to meet GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) requirements. The tank body adopts a hygienic, aseptic design, with special hygienic mechanical seals for sealing. The inner surface of the storage tank is mirror-polished to eliminate dead corners for thorough cleaning. The machine’s tabletop and frame are made of 304 stainless steel, while all parts in contact with the product are crafted from 316L stainless steel, guaranteeing a hygienic, reliable, and stable production process.

Controlled by a PLC program and human-machine interface (HMI), the system enables automatic tube loading, automatic positioning, and a servo motor-driven filling system (with no-tube/no-filling protection and misalignment prevention). The tail sealing unit uses a hot air generator to heat the inner wall of the tube, and the tail can be equipped with replaceable steel stamp coding for batch marking. It is suitable for sealing both all-plastic and aluminum-plastic composite tubes, delivering aesthetically pleasing and robust sealed tails.

Integrating mechanical, optical, electrical, and pneumatic technologies, the machine features a no-tube/no-filling mechanism, built-in counting with a set-quantity alert, error alarms, low air pressure alarm shutdown, overload alarm, and emergency stop. It automates the entire workflow: automatic tube loading, color mark alignment, filling, batch number stamping, and finished tube ejection. For viscous materials, it includes a filling head cut-off function. All drive components are mounted below the platform for safety and contamination prevention, while filling and sealing units are enclosed in a semi-closed, anti-static acrylic shield to avoid static buildup and ensure operator safety.

Equipment Features

  • Box-type Tube Hopper & Automatic Tube Loading: Hoses are automatically loaded into the tube-holding cups on the turntable.

  • Photoelectric Alignment System: Controlled by a servo motor and high-precision photoelectric probe, allowing tubes to stop at any position from 0° to 360°.

  • Servo-driven Piston Pump Filling: Filling is controlled by a servo motor; all product-contact parts are made of 316L stainless steel.

  • Descending Filling Nozzle: The filling nozzle descends into the tube and rises slowly during filling to avoid splashing and ensure precise dosing.

  • No-tube / Misalignment Protection: Stops filling if tubes are missing or misaligned, preventing material and tube waste.

  • Liftable Systems: Filling, heating, and sealing systems are height-adjustable to match different tube sizes.

  • Advanced Automatic Discharge: Pre-tail discharge for clean, efficient production.

  • Variable Frequency Speed Control: Allows flexible adjustment of production speed.

  • Intuitive Touchscreen Control: User-friendly interface for easy operation and parameter setting.

  • Overload Clutch Protection: Built into the conveyor chain to prevent damage during operation.

  • Tail-end Heat Sealing & Coding: Steel stamp coding for batch numbers, with replaceable characters.

  • Standard Spare Parts Kit: Included for quick maintenance.

  • Customized Tube Holders: Designed to match tube specifications, properties, and cap sizes.

  • Stainless Steel Enclosures: Doors and covers below the worktable are made of stainless steel.

  • Hybrid Mobility: Equipped with four fixed feet and four casters for easy installation and relocation.

  • Jog Switch for Maintenance: Enables safe point-motion control during assembly and repair.

  • Stainless Steel Control Cabinet: Meets hygiene and safety standards.

Electrical Control System

  • Core Control: Delta (Taiwan) PLC paired with a Delta touchscreen HMI, supporting bilingual (Chinese/English) operation interfaces.

  • Reliable Components: Main motors, sensors, and other parts use trusted domestic and international brands for safety and stability.

  • Key Electrical Functions:

    1. Safety Functions: Emergency stop, overload protection, and low air pressure shutdown.

    2. Control & Monitoring: No-tube/no-filling, error shutdown, color mark alignment control, and conveyor chain overload protection.

    3. Operational Functions: Optimal position stop, parameter setting via touchscreen, fault diagnosis, speed/yield/time display, and real-time monitoring.

Workflow

Loading into tube hopper → Automatic tube loading → Automatic insertion into mold → Automatic color mark alignment → Automatic filling → Tube heating → Tail sealing & date printing → Tail trimming → Finished product ejection.
