ProSys Fill, LLC announces it will highlight the VCF Chub Filler and ProLoader-T Tube Loading System at PACK EXPO International 2024, to be held November 3-6, 2024, at McCormick Place, Chicago, Illinois, Booth S-3656. Also on display will be the Custom Mix (CMX) System.
The VCF Chub Filler on display offers vertical filling speeds up to 40 per minute for self-leveling to highly viscous products. Servo dosing provides high levels of accuracy with less waste. Both electrical components and the clipping head are controlled by the programmable logic controller (PLC) instead of pneumatic switches. The VCF Chub Filler includes a unique discharge chute with a Teflon liner that can be quickly swapped out in the event of a product leak or a burst chub, making cleaning easy and reducing downtime. The clipping and cutting head features magnetic proximity sensors that can be positioned to optimize the clipping and cutting procedure and reduce wasted time.
Applications experts will also be on hand to showcase the ProLoader-T Tube Loading System, featuring a small footprint that saves valuable floor space and allows for a single operator. The ProLoader stores and loads six cartons of tubes and automatically picks cartons and returns empties for an operator to replace when necessary, producing significant labor savings. The ProLoader offers continuous tube loading, and one operator can run both the filler and tube loader, resulting in significant labor savings.
Visitors to the booth can also see the Custom Mix (CMX) System, an on demand in-line manufacturing process designed for use with creams, lotions, pastes, liquids, and abrasive slurries. Ideal for adhesives, cosmetics, chemicals, and dentifrice pastes, as well as pharmaceuticals, sealants and caulks, and greases, the CMX system allows manufacturers to produce a base product in large volume and then process smaller volumes of final products by blending in additives to the base product. Manufacturers can simultaneously inject and mix up to 12 additives at flow rates up to 12 gallons per minute. With its high precision accuracy, space saving design, and support for custom volume production, CMX is fully integrated into any ProSys fill station and control platform for filling cartridges, tubes, syringes, airless pumps, or unique containers.
