Line stage 04

Filling

The filling section covers dosing, container filling, and handoff after filling for repeat production, new pack formats, or line extension; challenging products and core packs determine the configuration.

Bottles and cans, tubes, premade spouted pouches, roll-film pouches, and multi-lane sachets use different loading, positioning, and sealing actions, so start with the real pack.

Send the real product and pack, dose range, finish or pouch/tube dimensions, closure, process temperature, heating and agitation, shift target, and surrounding equipment.

This stage can be added to an existing line or built into a new one. Surrounding machines, pack, normal and peak rates, fault handling, and layout determine the interfaces.
