Auto Mini Pinch

The Auto Mini Pinch is an automatic timed-flow volumetric filling machine that fills containers with water-thin liquids, light oils, and creams at up to 100 containers per minute.

This machine was designed with minimal, easy-to-clean contact parts, making it perfect for sanitary filling in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and specialty products industries. It also has a user-friendly touchscreen display with job memory and bottle-counting features. 

The Auto Mini Pinch is ideal for medium-speed small container-filling operations. Feel free to contact Accutek to learn more about how this machine can improve your production line.

How exactly does the Auto Mini-Pinch work?

Empty containers enter along the left side via the conveyor belt. A sensor detects when six containers are in position, then locks the star indexer. The pinch bar opens to let product flow into the containers from the nozzles. Every nozzle has a flow control, which equalizes the amount of product delivers to the containers. Once the pinch bar closes, the star indexer releases to let the filled bottles out via the conveyor, allowing for the next set to be loaded.

Is the touchscreen control complicated?

The controls may not seem immediately straightforward at first glance, but the manual contains clear step-by-step instructions on navigating through the interface to carry out filling operations.

What does the start wheel indexing option do?

This helps you achieve a higher production rate by offering better control and handling of containers during the filling process. It reduces production time and container changeover time. This option is best suited for when you want to minimize changeover time.

What’s the drip tray for?

The drip tray or pan keeps any drips from the nozzles from landing on your product containers, helping to keep them clean. This tray works in tandem with a sensor so your control interface knows when the tray is retracted.
