Tube Fillers

Tube fillers are manufactured by IWK Germany, which are widely applied to pharmaceutical, food, daily necessities, etc. To fulfill various packing requirements, IWK lauched 3 different speeds to meet different packing requirements. Including:

 

    <1> LOW SPEED – FP 10, TFS15

This tube filling machine in low speed range “FP 10″ is the successor of the top seller TFS 10 model which has several hundred installations worldwide. The FP 10 impresses with latest servo technology and its user-friendly adjustability via touchscreen.

Benefits:

• Short changeover times due to quick acting couplings
• Constant high-quality tube fold and tube seal quality
• No mechanical drives in the filling area to prevent product contamination
• Smooth surfaces for easy machine cleaning
• Minimum maintenance due to optimal mechanical machine components
• Best accessibility to wear & tear parts which have been kept to a minimum

<3> High SPEED –TFS 80-4/-6/-8

Highest performance and reliability, intelligent controls for optimal process cycles and outstanding process safety have turned IWK into the market leader with automatic tube filling machines for medium and upper outputs.
The new tube filling line TFS 80-8 guarantees complete weight checking and control, thus reducing tube overfilling significantly. With a fill rate of 750 tubes per minute, the TFS 80-8 is faster than any other tube filling machine in the world.
A wide range of options and additional equipment such as IWKs tube feeding systems, and seamless integration of downstream equipment guarantees that today’s most sophisticated tube packaging demands are met.
 

Benefits:
* Short changeover times due to quick acting couplings
* Designed to meet GMP standards, simple operation and optimal accessibility
* Optimal process cycles and outstanding process safety
* Allowed time for the work processes regardless of the cycle time of the machine
* Compact construction
* Lesser and simplified setup operations, best flexibility and reliability
* Modular design concepts for diverse tube closing systems and add-on components
