Working Principle
Piston-type Filling Principle: Similar to the piston-type principle of the hair clay filling machine, the piston is driven by an air cylinder to make reciprocating movements in the cylinder barrel. When the piston moves backward, the hair wax enters the piston cylinder through the feed inlet under the action of atmospheric pressure. When the piston moves forward, the hair wax in the cylinder is extruded and filled into the container through the discharge outlet. The filling volume can be controlled by adjusting the stroke of the piston. This principle is often used in semi-automatic filling machines, which have a simple structure and are easy to operate.
Gear Pump Filling Principle: Utilize a pair of meshing gears to rotate inside the pump body. When the gears rotate, the hair wax is sucked into the tooth spaces of the gears and is carried to the discharge outlet as the gears rotate, achieving quantitative filling. The rotational speed of the gear pump is directly proportional to the filling volume. By precisely controlling the rotational speed of the motor, the rotational speed of the gears can be accurately controlled, thus precisely controlling the filling volume. This principle is suitable for hair wax filling production lines with high requirements for filling accuracy.
Structural Composition
Material Storage and Conveying System: It includes components such as the hopper and conveying pipelines. The hopper is used to store hair wax materials. To prevent the hair wax from solidifying or settling in the hopper, some hoppers are equipped with heating and stirring devices to ensure that the materials can be uniformly and smoothly conveyed to the filling head through the conveying pipelines.
Filling System: The core part is composed of components such as the filling head and metering device. The design of the filling head varies according to the characteristics of the hair wax and the shape of the container to ensure that the hair wax can be accurately and stably injected into the container. The metering device precisely controls the amount of each filling. Common metering methods include volumetric metering and weighing metering to ensure filling accuracy.
Container Conveying and Positioning System: It is composed of components such as the conveyor belt, transmission device, and positioning device. The conveyor belt transports the containers to be filled from the feed inlet to the filling position. The positioning device accurately positions the containers directly below the filling head through methods such as mechanical stoppers and photoelectric sensors to ensure the precise position of the containers during the filling process and avoid filling deviations.
Control System: It usually adopts a combination of PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) and a touch screen for control. Operators can set parameters such as the filling volume, filling speed, and container specifications on the touch screen. The PLC controls the operation of each component according to the set parameters to achieve automated filling. At the same time, the control system also has functions such as fault alarm and diagnosis, which facilitates the timely troubleshooting and problem-solving.
Types
Semi-automatic Hair Wax Filling Machine: Operations such as bottle loading and unloading are completed manually, while the filling process is automatically executed by the machine. It is suitable for small and medium-scale production and has a relatively low equipment cost. For example, the single-head semi-automatic hair wax filling machine used in some small cosmetic factories or workshops is simple to operate and easy to maintain, and can be adjusted according to different hair wax packaging requirements.
Fully Automatic Hair Wax Filling Machine: A series of processes from container conveying, positioning, filling to capping and labeling can all be automatically completed. It has high production efficiency and can effectively reduce labor costs and the impact of human factors on product quality. It is suitable for large-scale hair wax production enterprises. For example, the fully automatic hair wax filling production line that adopts the gear pump filling principle can achieve high-speed and high-precision filling, and can fill hundreds or even thousands of bottles per hour.
Features
High-precision Filling: By adopting advanced metering and filling technologies, the filling accuracy is high. Generally, the filling error can be controlled within ±1%, ensuring that the filling volume of each bottle of hair wax is accurate and consistent, which helps to improve product quality and brand image.
High-efficiency Production: The fully automatic hair wax filling machine has a high production speed and can fill dozens or even more bottles per minute, greatly improving production efficiency, meeting the production capacity requirements of large-scale production, and helping enterprises reduce production costs.
Strong Adaptability: It can be adjusted according to different container specifications, shapes, and the characteristics of hair wax products. After replacing components such as the filling head and conveying device, it can adapt to the filling of hair wax in various bottle shapes and capacities, and can also handle hair wax materials with different viscosities, with a wide range of applications.
Hygiene and Safety: The components in contact with the materials are usually made of materials such as 304 stainless steel or 316L stainless steel that meet food hygiene standards. The surface is smooth, making it easy to clean and disinfect, and avoiding contamination of the hair wax. At the same time, the equipment is also equipped with safety protection devices, such as protective doors and emergency stop buttons, to ensure the safety of operators.
Application Fields
Daily Chemical Product Production: It is one of the key pieces of equipment for hair wax manufacturers, used to fill hair wax into various packaging containers such as plastic bottles, hoses, and metal cans to meet the market sales demand.
Beauty and Hairdressing Industry: Professional beauty and hairdressing institutions or product customization enterprises will use small hair wax filling machines to customize personalized hair wax products to meet the special needs of different customers, such as hair wax products designed for specific hairstyles and hair qualities.
