Liquid Filling Machine Types Meter Flow Vs Overflow

overflow liquid filling machine

In modern manufacturing and food and beverage industries, the use of liquid filling machines has become an important part of ensuring product quality and production efficiency. These machines not only increase production speed, but also ensure product consistency and accuracy. However, there are different types of liquid filling machines, the two most common of which are metering flow filling machines and overflow filling machines. This article will explore the working principles, advantages and disadvantages, and applicable scenarios of these two filling machines in depth to help companies decide the liquid filling equipment that best suits their production needs.

  1. Metering flow liquid filling machine
    The metering flow filling machine uses a specific flow sensor and control system to determine the flow rate of the liquid to achieve precise metering. Its working principle is mainly based on the speed at which the liquid flows in the pipeline, and the required liquid volume is obtained by adjusting the flow rate.

Meter flow liquid filling machine advantages:

High accuracy: The metering flow filling machine can be filled with extremely high accuracy, which is suitable for products that require strict control of the filling amount, such as cosmetics, medicines, etc.

Strong adaptability: It can be used for a variety of types of liquids, including viscous liquids and low-viscosity liquids, and is not easily affected by the characteristics of the liquid.
Easy to automate: Due to its precise flow control, metering flow filling machines can usually be integrated into automated production lines to improve production efficiency.
Disadvantages:

High equipment cost: Compared with other types of filling machines, the initial investment of metering flow filling machines is usually higher.
High maintenance requirements: Because it contains complex electronic components and sensors, maintenance and calibration require professionals.

  1. Overflow liquid filling machine
    The working principle of the overflow filling machine is relatively simple. It fills the liquid in the container until the liquid reaches the set overflow height. Specifically, when the liquid reaches the overflow port, the excess liquid flows back into the storage tank of the filling machine, thereby achieving an accurate filling amount.

Overflow liquid filling machine advantages:

Simple operation: The operation of the overflow filling machine is relatively intuitive and easy to train workers to operate.
Low cost: Compared with the metering flow filling machine, the purchase and maintenance cost of the overflow filling machine is usually lower, so it is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

Suitable for mass production: Overflow filling machines are particularly suitable for the needs of fast filling in mass production processes.
Disadvantages:

Low accuracy: Compared with metering flow filling machines, overflow filling machines have lower filling accuracy, which may lead to certain differences between products.
Liquid restrictions: Due to its working principle, overflow filling machines are not suitable for filling high-viscosity liquids or liquids containing solid particles.

  1. Summary
    When choosing a liquid filling machine, enterprises should fully consider the nature of their products, production scale and expected filling accuracy. Metering flow filling machines are suitable for industries with extremely high quality requirements due to their high accuracy and wide applicability. Overflow filling machines, on the other hand, show their unique advantages in the field of high production volume due to their simple operation and cost-effectiveness.

The final choice should be made based on the specific needs, budget and flow production process of the enterprise to ensure the selection of the most suitable filling equipment to improve production efficiency and achieve consistency and reliability of product quality. As technology continues to advance, the types and functions of liquid filling machines will continue to develop in the future to meet the ever-changing market demands.
