Ointment and Cream Filling Machines
Precision and hygiene are paramount when handling viscous products. Harsiddh Unimach offers a sophisticated range of Automatic Ointment and Cream Filling Machines designed to handle various viscosities with absolute accuracy. Whether you are filling collapsible tubes, jars, or containers, our machinery ensures a leak-proof, aesthetic, and contamination-free packaging process for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries.
Our Filling Solutions
- Automatic Tube Filling & Sealing Machine: A high-speed solution for filling ointments into aluminum, plastic, or laminated tubes with integrated folding or heat-sealing stations.
- Volumetric Cream Filling Machine: Employs piston-based technology to deliver precise volumes of thick creams and pastes into jars and bottles.
- Servo-Driven Ointment Fillers: Provides the highest level of accuracy and flexibility, allowing for digital volume adjustments via the HMI.
Salient Features
- Anti-Drip Technology: Equipped with specially designed nozzles and a “snuff-back” mechanism to ensure a clean fill without tailing or leakage.
- cGMP Compliant Construction: All contact parts are made of SS 316L, with a non-corrosive SS 304 main frame, meeting stringent global hygiene standards.
- Heated Hopper & Stirrer: Available with jacketed hoppers and motorized stirrers to maintain the flowability of thick products during the filling cycle.
- No Container – No Fill System: Intelligent sensors prevent product wastage by ensuring the pump only activates when a container is correctly positioned.
- Versatile Sealing Options: For tubes, the machine supports multiple folding patterns for aluminum and hot-air/ultrasonic sealing for plastic and lami-tubes.
- Easy Cleaning (CIP/SIP): Engineered for rapid dismantling of the pump and hopper assembly, facilitating thorough cleaning and sterilization.
- User-Friendly Control: Controlled via a PLC system with a touch-screen HMI for production counting and recipe management.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the machine ensure the fill volume is consistent?
We use high-precision, ground-finished piston pumps. Each cycle delivers a metered volume of product. For even higher precision, our Servo-Driven models allow you to set the fill volume digitally with an accuracy of +/- 0.5%.
What types of tube sealing are available?
For Aluminum tubes, the machine performs a double or triple fold with a crimp. For Plastic or Laminated tubes, we use a hot-air sealing system followed by a cooling station and a trimming unit for a professional finish.
How do you prevent air bubbles or "voids" in the cream?
To prevent air entrapment, we utilize a "bottom-up filling" technique where the nozzle enters the bottom of the container and rises slowly as the product is dispensed. This ensures a solid, bubble-free fill.
Is the machine easy to clean for product changeovers?
Absolutely. The "Quick-Release" design allows the operator to dismantle the hopper, valves, and cylinders without special tools. All contact surfaces are highly polished to prevent product buildup, making it ideal for cGMP environments.
