Choosing the Right Filling Machine for your Product

Filling is one of the most important phases of the production process. A filling machine can help to speed up the process and save you money. We have a guide to help you to choose the best filling machines for your business.

The importance of choosing suitable filling equipment

Your method of filling impacts your time of production. The faster your filling, the faster your business can put out quality products for your consumers. Choosing good filling equipment, such as a volumetric filling machine will help you promote the sales of products and enhance the efficiency of production.

Packaging is essential for any food business. Filling equipment (such as a volumetric filler from Multi-Fill) disposes of out neat portions of food or liquid which helps to make packaging attractive to consumers, another factor that will help you to boost sales

What to consider before choosing your method of filling

What are you filling?

Do you need to fill food packaging with pasta or soup? Not all filling machines can be used for liquid products and other machines do not fill difficult-to-fill products such as meat items. Ensure that your volumetric filler works for the product you are filling.

If you have a difficult-to-fill product, we suggest the Multi-Fill MPFMP-060, a semi-automatic pocket filler that fills everything from shredded meat to shrimp.

What packaging are you filling?

Make sure that the automatic filler you choose can adequately fill your chosen food packaging. Check with the manufacturer regarding this info to avoid purchasing a machine that won’t properly dispense your food into your containers or bowls.

For a volumetric filler that is compatible with most conveyor systems and packaging, we suggest the MPFSC-120 volumetric filler. It is a quick volumetric filler machine that can fill up to 120 containers per minute.

What filling system do you prefer — automatic or semi-automatic?

Do you want a semi-automatic filling machine or a completely automatic filling machine? Some machines require manual applications which means you need labor to maintain them. You’ll need to train or hire someone to do this. Other machines are fully automatic, meaning they will require minimal or no labor.

Multi-Fill is an expert filling equipment manufacturer that provides both automatic and semi-automatic fillers for your production process. When you choose our volumetric fillers, you receive only the highest quality filling machine equipment. Our filling machine equipment helps to increase your product flow and enhance your packaging.

Delving into cGMP: Its Crucial Role in Food Packaging and Safety

By Michael Naylor • 12 Jan, 2024

Food packaging plays a vital role in ensuring the safety and quality of the food we consume. To maintain high standards and prevent foodborne illnesses, the food packaging industry follows a set of regulations known as Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). In this article, we will delve into cGMP and explore its impact on preventing foodborne illness. We will also take an inside look at how cGMP is implemented on a food factory line, the role of food filling equipment in ensuring compliance, and discuss the future of cGMP in food packaging for strengthening food safety.

Harmonizing cGMP, HACCP, and HARPC in Food Line Safety

By Michael Naylor • 12 Jan, 2024

Current Good Manufacturing Practices Food safety is of utmost importance in the food industry, and several systems work together to prevent foodborne illnesses. This article explores the harmonization of Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP), and Hazard Analysis and Risk-based Preventive Controls (HARPC) in ensuring food line safety. We will delve into the synergy between these systems, the role of critical control points, and their practical application in both automatic and manual counting devices. Additionally, we will discuss how cGMP, HACCP, and HARPC optimize automatic filling machines for enhanced food safety. This is the second in a series of articles on cGMP.
