Fill-By-Weight Filling Systems

FILL-BY-WEIGHT FILLING SYSTEMS

Speedway’s FBW (Fill-By-Weight) systems provide a reliable solution for applications where fill accuracy is critical. Designed to handle a wide range of container sizes and product types, these systems are well suited for operations requiring consistent weight control and flexible production capability.

FBW systems use load cell technology to measure and control the fill weight of each container. Product is dispensed in a controlled two-stage process, allowing for efficient bulk filling followed by a precise final top-off.These systems can be configured for manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic operation depending on production requirements. They are commonly used for filling containers ranging from small jugs to large totes and can accommodate a variety of product types, including liquids, viscous products, and products containing particulates.

System layouts can include single filling stations or multi-head configurations, with integration options for conveyors and downstream equipment to support complete packaging lines.

Custom conveyors

Custom conveyors

built to meet your

requirements

Speedway uses a modular design that allows us to make any length of conveyor in varying widths in 3″ segments (ie 3″, 6″, 9″, 12″ etc). We can further customize our designs to incorporate curves, inclines and flights.

Broadly speaking, our conveyors are divided into two categories, modular plastic belts and endless belt conveyors. Each has its own advantages.

Modular belt conveyors always run true and alignment is not a consideration. They are very durable and individual belt tiles can be replaced if damaged. This style belt is also very easy to remove for  cleaning or replacement. There are numerous styles of chain with varying friction, openness (in the case where you want the belt to drain), flights for conveying products on inclines and belt that can travel along a radius.

Endless conveyor belts are often used for small packages/containers where you need a very smooth running conveyor and high friction. The conveyor belts typically do need to be tracked properly and can be more challenging to remove.

We have also made conveyors from a cogged needless belt. This is basically an endless belt that is driven by cogs (similar to a plastic modular belt) because it has a drive teeth molded into the belt. This belt is ideal when building a flighted incline conveyor.

  • All our conveyors are constructed from stainless steel and anodized aluminuim
  • We build conveyors to suit your requirements and are not married to specific type or supplier of conveyor belt chain
  • Straight standard conveyors are typically built from parts that we hold in stock for quick turnarounds
  • Our designs are scalable, allowing us to shorten or extend our conveyors in the future if required
  • We can easily alter our wear strip materials to address things like high temperatures or high point loads
  • Our standard conveyor bolt patterns allows us to have stock mounting plates for inkjet printers, pneumatic gates and labelers.

Automatic Overflow Filler (LF90CA-C/PD)

Automatic Overflow Filler (LF90CA-C/PD)

This is an economical automatic fill-to-level machine that can easily be expanded as your business grows. This fill to level machine ensures the level in each bottle is the same regardless of variations in bottle volume.

The LF90CA is a proven workhorse with hundreds in service today. Containers are automatically transferred on a conveyor in and out of the machine. Bottle positioning and cycling of the machine is controlled by a PLC receiving bottle counts from sensors. As long as bottles are in place and product is in the tank, this machine will continue to fill bottles automatically.

Nozzles are easily spaced out when dealing with different diameter bottles or can even be swapped if bottle openings have large variations. The machine has an option of either a centrifugal pump (ideal for non-viscose liquids) or  a positive displacement pump (high viscose liquids). These inline fillers can be customized to suit any size container or conveyor length. Container sizes from 100 ml to 10 L can be accommodated.

  • LF90CA-C comes complete with a sanitary centrifugal pump.
  • LF90CA-PD comes complete with a sanitary positive displacement pump.
  • The pump draws from the built-in tank sending liquid to the manifold and from there to the nozzles.
  • Easy and fast adjustment for accurate fills.
  • Can be adapted to different applications, allowing smooth production runs and easy changeovers for high efficiency.
  • Built in stainless steel holding tank with level control.
  • Overflow goes directly back into the holding tank.
  • 316 stainless steel nozzles with Teflon seals and Viton o-rings.
  • PVC nozzles and tanks are available for filling acids
  • The hoses connect to a rigid top body preventing hose strain from effecting nozzle performance
  • Easy to integrate into a production line or in stand-alone operation.
  • It is excellent machine in terms of value, flexibility and performance.
  • The machine is self contained needing only AC power, compressed air and to be connected to the main liquid supply.

Semi-Automatic Overflow Filler (LF90ST-C / PD)

Semi-Automatic Overflow Filler (LF90ST-C / PD)

This is an economical entry level machine that can be expanded and upgraded to an automatic machine as your business grows. This fill to level machine ensures the level in each bottle is the same regardless of variations in bottle volume.

The LF90ST is a proven workhorse with hundreds in service today. Containers are shuttled along a slide table and indexed via a manual stop. The operator presses a start button and the filling cycle begins. Once the filling cycle has been completed the nozzle bar lifts and waits until the operator presses the button once again.

Nozzles are easily spaced out when dealing with different diameter bottles or can even be swapped if bottle openings have large variations. The machine has an option of either a centrifugal pump (ideal for non-viscose liquids) or  a positive displacement pump (high viscose liquids). These inline fillers can be customized to suit any size container or conveyor length. Container sizes from 100 ml to 10 L can be accommodated.
