Container handling
Unscramblers, rinsers, infeed tables and conveyors can present containers consistently to the filler and reduce manual handling.
Explore conveyor optionsEquipment around your filler
Complete your filling line with the right handling, capping and labelling equipment.
Plan the equipment before and after the filler as one coordinated process, so containers move reliably and every line stage supports your required output.
Plan every line stage
Choose equipment that works together—not isolated machines.
We can help you consider container presentation, filling, closure application, coding, labelling, conveying and end-of-line handling as one production flow.
Closures
Capping and sealing
Match screw caps, pumps, triggers, ROPP closures, induction seals or other formats to your container and required output.
Explore capping equipmentIdentification
Labelling and coding
Plan label application, date or batch coding and inspection so they remain compatible with the product, container and operating area.
Explore labelling machineryAutomation
Controls and line integration
Coordinate sensors, accumulation, guarding, stop conditions and operator controls so each machine supports the same production target.

Packing and dispatch
Consider cartoning, case sealing, shrink wrapping and discharge handling early enough to avoid bottlenecks after filling.
Explore packaging equipmentExisting lines
Upgrades and additional modules
Add capacity, change container formats or replace a weak line stage with equipment selected around your current layout and controls.
Discuss a line upgradeOne coordinated project
Reduce hand-off problems between machines.
Planning the complete production flow helps prevent container instability, speed mismatches, unsuitable controls and last-minute changes around the hazardous area.
- Agree the required output for the complete line.
- Check container dimensions, stability and closure formats.
- Define accumulation, transfer and operator access.
- Review which equipment sits inside or affects the classified area.
- Plan commissioning, training and ongoing support.

Plan the machinery, site and operating evidence together.
These guides support the enquiry, quotation, FAT and handover process for hazardous-area filling projects.
Automation comparison
Choose operator-assisted or conveyor-fed filling from the complete production task.
Dosing-method comparison
Compare mass-based and volumetric control using declared quantity and trial evidence.
Quotation cost factors
Identify product, protection, automation, site and evidence items that change scope.
Installation and site preparation
Coordinate layout, utilities, extraction, earthing, drainage and SAT.
Cleaning and changeover
Define isolation, draining, flushing, format settings and verified restart.
Maintenance and inspection
Retain the approved equipment condition through competent, recorded checks.
Vapour extraction and containment
Map release sources, capture, monitoring and machine response.
Controls and interlocks
Write cause-and-effect logic, safe states, recovery and FAT/SAT tests.
Trials and FAT
Turn samples, acceptance criteria and deviations into controlled evidence.
Line evidence
Plan the closure stage and equipment evidence with the filler.
ATEX capping and closure handling
Review open-pack transfer, cap presentation, container stability, line stops, rejects and the hazardous-area boundary before the capper layout is fixed.
ATEX marking and project documentation
Connect the line equipment schedule, intended duty, instructions, cause-and-effect records, FAT and SAT actions to the same approved project basis.
Classification and line controls
Connect equipment evidence to the building and process interfaces.
Gas groups and temperature classes
Define the duty for equipment across the filler, capper, conveyors and connected systems.
LEL detection and ventilation
Coordinate building systems with product isolation and filling-line safe states.
Great Britain conformity route
Plan the market, documentation and responsibility boundaries for the complete line.
Additional engineering resources
Connect line equipment to the large-pack and process-safety decision.
IBC and 200 L drum filling
Scale, nozzle arm, pallet access, product feed and finished-pack handling.
Flowmeter vs load cell
Measurement choice, meter installation, tare, product condition and acceptance.
Nitrogen inerting
Oxygen control, monitoring, ventilation and machine interlocks.
Process-engineering resources
Resolve product transfer and protective shutdown alongside the line equipment.
Product-feed pumps
Match pump behaviour to measurement, nozzles, pressure, cleaning and safe-state control.
Overfill protection
Define the endpoint, abnormal trip, final isolation, containment and test evidence.
Ex protection concepts
Understand how protected components fit into the complete filling-line assessment.
Packaging-line verification
Include the quality check and reject route in line planning.
The filler, capper and downstream quantity check must use consistent pack identity and measurement assumptions. Define whether a check occurs before or after closure, what happens to suspect containers and how a stop affects open packs. An instrument chosen for a non-hazardous location must not be assumed suitable beside the filler.
Use accuracy and checkweighing evidence for the verification boundary. For ink colour changes and two-component kit packing, carry the product-identity and clean-state checks into the finished-pack release record.
