Automatic Petroleum Jelly Filling Machine by Harsiddh
Optimize the production of high-viscosity products with the Harsiddh Automatic Petroleum Jelly Filling Machine. This high-precision system is specifically engineered to handle products that require temperature-controlled filling, such as petroleum jelly, waxes, balms, ointments, and thick creams.
The Harsiddh filler utilizes a specialized heating and stirring mechanism to maintain product fluidity during the dosing process, ensuring surgical accuracy and a smooth, professional finish in jars, tins, and containers of various shapes.
Advanced Heating & Filling Technology
Filling petroleum jelly requires maintaining a specific temperature to ensure flowability and consistent weight. Our machine is built to master this challenge:
- Jacketed Hopper with Stirrer: Features a high-capacity, double-walled jacketed hopper. The integrated heating elements and mechanical stirrer ensure the product remains at a uniform temperature and viscosity throughout the production run.
- Positive Displacement Dosing: Utilizes high-precision volumetric piston pumps (SS 316) to achieve a filling accuracy of ± 1%.
- Drip-Free Nozzles: Equipped with specialized heat-resistant shut-off nozzles to prevent tailing and dripping, keeping the container edges clean for secondary packaging.
- Versatile Container Handling: Designed to fill round, square, or oval containers made of plastic, glass, or metal with minimal changeover parts.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the machine ensure a smooth, level finish in the jars?
To achieve the professional "flat-top" appearance expected in retail petroleum jelly products, the machine utilizes:
Bottom-Up Filling: The filling nozzles descend to the base of the jar and retract slowly as they dispense the liquid jelly, preventing air pockets.
Temperature Syncing: By controlling the "pour temperature" via the PLC, the jelly settles evenly before it begins to solidify.
Optional Heating Station: An infrared post-fill station can be added to briefly remelt the top layer, ensuring a glossy, bubble-free surface.
Can the machine accommodate different jar sizes and materials?
Yes. The machine is highly versatile and designed to handle various plastic (PET/HDPE) or glass jars ranging from 10g to 500g (or larger depending on the specific model). The rotary indexed table features adjustable or interchangeable holders that allow for quick changeovers between different jar diameters and heights with minimal downtime.
What is the dosing accuracy and production speed of this model?
The Automatic Petroleum Jelly Filling Machine is built for high-efficiency commercial production:
Accuracy: It utilizes a Volumetric Piston Filling principle with high-precision SS 316L syringes, achieving a filling accuracy of ±1%.
Speed: Depending on the jar volume and the cooling requirements of the jelly, the machine typically achieves an output of 30 to 60 jars per minute.
What are the key cGMP and maintenance features for this machine?
As a cGMP-compliant unit designed for the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries:
Material Integrity: All product contact parts (hopper, pump, and nozzles) are made of SS 316L, while the exterior frame is polished SS 304.
No Jar – No Fill Sensor: An electronic interlock prevents the pump from discharging if a jar is missing, eliminating product wastage and messy cleanup.
Easy Cleaning: The jacketed hopper and piston assembly are designed for rapid dismantling, allowing for thorough sanitization between different product batches (e.g., switching from scented to unscented jelly).
