Drive Unit: Typically uses an electric motor as the power source, transmitting the motor's rotational motion to the gear pump through transmission devices (such as belts, chains, or couplings) to provide power for the pump's operation.
Gear Pump: The core component of the filling machine, composed of a pair of meshing gears, one being the driving gear and the other the driven gear. The gear pump is responsible for extracting soy sauce from the storage tank and delivering it to the filling head in a predetermined volume.
Storage Tank: Used to store a large volume of soy sauce, providing a continuous material supply for the filling process. The tank is usually equipped with a level sensor to monitor the liquid level in real time. When the level drops below a set value, it sends a signal to the feeding system to replenish the soy sauce.
Filling System: Composed of a filling head, pipelines, and valves. The filling head serves as the channel for liquid to enter the soy sauce bottle from the gear pump, typically made of stainless steel for corrosion resistance and hygiene. Pipelines connect the gear pump to the filling head, while valves control the flow of soy sauce to ensure it only enters the filling process when required.
Conveying System: Similar to gravity and piston filling machines, it consists of a conveyor belt, rollers, and transmission devices, responsible for transporting empty soy sauce bottles from the inlet to the filling station and moving filled bottles to the outlet.
Control System: Generally controlled by a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) combined with a touchscreen. Operators can set parameters such as filling volume, filling speed, and the number of filling heads on the touchscreen. The PLC controls the operation of components like the drive unit, valves, and conveying system based on the set parameters to automate the entire filling process.
High-Precision Filling: By accurately controlling the rotational speed and number of rotations of the gear pump, the filling volume can be precisely regulated to ensure each bottle of soy sauce reaches exactly 280ML. The filling accuracy is typically controlled within ±1%, reducing measurement errors and guaranteeing product quality.
High-Efficiency Production: The gear pump operates with high efficiency, enabling rapid extraction and transportation of soy sauce. Combined with automated conveying and control systems, it achieves a high filling speed to meet the production needs of enterprises of various scales.
Wide Application Range: Suitable not only for filling 280ML soy sauce bottles but also adaptable to different bottle capacities by adjusting parameters or replacing components. It can effectively handle soy sauces of different viscosities, ensuring stable filling for both low-viscosity light soy sauce and high-viscosity dark soy sauce.
Hygiene and Safety: Components in contact with soy sauce are made of food-grade stainless steel (such as 316L), featuring corrosion resistance and easy cleaning to ensure hygienic safety during the filling process, complying with food production standards.
Stable and Reliable Performance: The gear pump filling machine has a relatively simple structure, with gears and motors as the main moving parts, ensuring stable operation and low failure rates. High-quality components and advanced manufacturing processes extend the equipment's service life, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
