Especially suitable for packagers of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, the MB120 Monoblock filler/capper from ESS Technologies offers a unique combination of easy-to-clean balcony design and advanced controls that permit quick size change and automatic, on-the-fly, fill-volume adjustments.

The seven-axis system uses four servo motors from B&R USA and three AC inverter motors to meter in containers, fill them, and screw on caps. Diving nozzles, filling pumps, timing screw, and cap indexing wheel are all servo-driven. Conveyors and cap-torquing are driven by the AC inverter motors.

The system has no PLC. Motion, logic, and HMI are all governed by a single B&R controller. A CANbus network and software called B&R Automation Studio integrate all these automation tasks. The control system was developed by B&R USA’s Mid-Atlantic representative and distributor, Integrated Motion Inc., according to the requirements of ESS.
