Cost-effective alternative to piston fillers

May 1, 2011


Fill-Tech Solutions’ Magnetic Inductive Flow Meter (MID) is increasingly replacing piston fillers in packaging and filling machines for liquid and semi-viscous foods. MID is a cost-effective alternative because there are no moving mechanical parts to wear out; there’s no need to replace gaskets, seals or o-rings in the meter; there are no mechanical forces applied to the product, which can manipulate product consistency and cause water to build up on top of the product.; and no dead spaces for product to accumulate. Our MID technology is CIP/SIP compatible up to 140C. This solution also is compact in size so  filling on close centers is not problem. Large selection of nozzles connectable by either sanitary, aseptic or Tri-clamp style fittings.
