Key Features and Benefits
1. Semi-Automatic Operation with High Precision
The SGF-40R-Y combines manual tube placement with automatic filling and sealing, offering operators control over the process while ensuring consistent results. The volumetric filling system delivers ±1% precision , reducing product waste and ensuring each tube contains the exact specified volume.
2. Intelligent Temperature Control
The machine features a 3.3KW heating air fan with LCD display and automatic temperature control. This is particularly important for adhesives and sealants that require specific temperatures to maintain optimal flow characteristics during filling.
3. Flexible Filling Capacity
With customizable filling volumes of 50ml, 100ml, 200ml, or 250ml, the SGF-40R-Y adapts to diverse product requirements. This flexibility makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, from small cosmetic samples to industrial adhesive tubes .
4. Robust Construction
Built with stainless steel construction in contact parts, the machine ensures durability, corrosion resistance, and easy cleaning—essential for maintaining product purity across different batches.
5. Integrated Water Chiller
The included water chiller (60kg) provides cooling for temperature-sensitive materials, ensuring product quality during the filling process.
Applications
The SGF-40R-Y is versatile enough to handle a wide range of products:
| Application | Typical Products |
|---|---|
| Adhesives | Cyanoacrylate (super glue, 502 glue), PVA glue, epoxy |
| Cosmetics | Hair dye, creams, lotions, toothpaste |
| Pharmaceuticals | Ointments, gels, medicinal pastes |
| Chemicals | Sealants, lubricants, industrial compounds |
How It Works
The SGF-40R-Y operates through a straightforward workflow:
Manual Tube Loading: Operator places empty tubes into the tube holders on the machine.
Automatic Filling: The machine's volumetric filling system dispenses the precise amount of product into each tube, with accuracy better than ±1%.
Sealing: The tube tail is sealed using the machine's precision sealing mechanism.
Temperature Control: The integrated heating system maintains optimal material temperature throughout the process.
Cooling: The water chiller (optional/included) ensures temperature stability for sensitive products.
