Automatic filling machine VR series

vialliquidfor the pharmaceutical industry

The VR2 Filler Series encompasses different models to accommodate a variety of applications. They operate in an intermittent mode ranging from moderate to high speeds. Solid, reliable performance at low to high speeds with smooth, efficient container handling. This series can be equipped with 2-12 nozzles that fill up to 300 containers per minute, with a fill accuracy of +/- .5%. The VR2 filler is a reliable, high performance aseptic liquid filling machine, conforming to current cGMPs. This series uses existing overhead laminar air flow to it's fullest - using a straight-line concept and small footprint, effective in maintaining the integrity of a clean room environment. The Cozzoli simple two-piece filling syringes and valve assemblies are designed for sterile, bacteria-free environments. High precision machining of our filling syringes allows each machine to achieve a fill accuracy of +\- 1/2 of 1% by volume, or better. Other fill methods, such as diaphragm, peristaltic, etc. are also available. Changeover for various container heights and nozzle stroke adjustment is made easy, with simple calibrated hand-wheel features. FILL PRINCIPLE Containers are positioned in the machine by a feed screw. A diving nozzle system provides bottom-up filling on a range from 0-4" (101.6mm). This system eliminates the need to change cams and speeds up changeover. A drop control mechanism eliminates a hanging drop at the completion of the fill cycle. CONTROLS The PLC controls intermittent container handling through the timing feedscrew. This feedscrew can be set to multidose, which provides maximum production for large fills, or when running foamy products.
