FBW SQF Sequential Fill –Precision Twin Augers for Bulk & Fine Fill

Custom Programming of specific formulas to create pre-measured production units.

• Spice & Flavor Units for the Food ( Meat & Bakery ) Industries.
• Potpouri, Buds, Seeds, Florets, Croutons, Spices  
• Color & Chemical Additives - Batching Formulas.
• Cosmetic & Pharmaceutical - Batching Formulas.
   
• Any combination of individual product feeders can be set up
  to meter the various components that create your specific product.
• Product combinations can include liquids metered by FBW Fill-By-Weight or Piston Fillers.
• Heavy Pastes/ Creams can be handled by PD Pumps, Vertical Auger Fillers or Piston Fillers. 
• Granular or Flowable Dry Products can be fed by Vibratory or Horizontal Auger Feeders.
• The containers or unit packages are automatically indexed sequentially
  through the different filling stations.

• The R-J Model SQF-2A-15 is a custom built packaging line designed to fill plastic jars with precisely 15 grams of high value or specialty products.
• SQF  designates a Sequential Fill with a Bulk Fill & Fine Fill scaling sequence to enable the precise weight of product to be metered.
• Horizontal augers ensure a smooth transfer from the bulk hoppers to the container with minimal product degradation.
• The Bulk Fill auger is a larger diameter auger to handle
  the larger volumes for faster filling.
• The Fine Fill auger will meter smaller volumes of product
  to make up the precise weight.

• 36” diameter Infeed Turntable to feed the jars into the lugs of the 
  8 ft long indexing  jar transfer conveyor.
• The stainless steel lugged chain transfer conveyor will index the jars sequentially to the scale based Bulk Fill station &  Fine Fill station to be filled to the specified target weight.
• The Bulk Fill hopper with a  larger diameter horizontal auger will transfer the bulk weight of product directly into the jar through the nozzle assembly.
• The  Fine Fill hopper for final fill weight top up is fitted with a smaller diameter horizontal auger to transfer the classified smaller volume of product  to the scaling station.
• If the container is within the specified weight and no top up is required, the filled container will be indexed for transfer to secondary operations .
• If the container is overweight it will be indexed to the reject station and transferred off the conveyor onto an accumulating table for secondary operations.
• If the container is underweight the Fine Fill auger will start up to transfer the product into the jar to make up the specified target weight.
•  A heavy duty square tube stainless steel  frame with adjustable leveling  pads for precise integration &  alignment with the indexing conveyor.
• Hoppers, Augers, Pneumatic supply with Filter Regulator & Oiler, Solenoid valves & the Main Operator Control Panel are integrated together on the main frame.  
• 2 Stainless steel rectangular Bulk & Fine Fill hoppers with lids & safety Interlocks. Removable horizontal cross augers are Triclamp mounted directly to the hoppers.
• Controls are mounted into a NEMA 4 dustproof enclosure with access to all major operating  parameters.The main control panel will to be mounted on the main frame for easy access.
• Embedded controller will manage all of the sequencing & verification logic. HDMI with color touch screen &  access for operation, verification & documentation.
• No Container – No Fill interlock circuits with container in place verification.
• Embedded scale indicator & precision Tedea Load cells with 1/10^th gram scale resolution.
• ​Programmable variable speed controls for Bulk & Fine Fill augers to set the feed rates.
• ​The system is designed for ease of cleaning & sanitizing all the product contact parts.
  • The stainless steel hoppers have accessible smooth easily cleaned surfaces.​
  • ​The auger & drive motor assemblies are easily accessed & disassembled for cleaning.
