Producers of materials packaged in cartridges continually encounter problems getting consistent level, void free fills. This is particularly true when filling the dual type of cartridge typically used to package two component epoxies, silicones, and urethanes etc. In these cases secondary operations are normally employed to even up the quantities in each of the cartridges in order to obtain both proper cosmetic appearance, and correct ratios from the cartridges. Time consuming cleanup procedures when switching from one product to another is an equally frustrating and costly problem.

Our EZ-Filla^TM Cartridge Filling Machine overcomes these long standing problems in a bench-top cartridge/syringe dispense system that will automatically fill these packages to accurate, repeatable, preset levels. Although it was specifically designed to handle medium to heavy viscosity materials, it has proven to be equally at home on many low viscosity materials.

The dispenser's design guarantees consistent, void free, fills by combining bottom-up filling with a special low clearance nozzle design and adjustable cartridge/material counterbalance system.

Among the cartridge filler’s other unique features are:
a) low cost 5 or 10 gallon quick change polypropylene reservoir insert system that can be treated as permanent containers or alternatively, can be easily removed to store materials in a safe economic manner
b) a straight thru flow wetted system that's easily cleaned, capable of millions of cycles, but low enough in cost to be disposable
c) a precise, adjustable, level control system
d) a built in pinch type valve to assure accurate shut-off
e) a stainless steel reservoir with pressure regulation to control flow rate (the system can also be fed from external tanks or drums using optional pumps)
f) All pneumatic operation.

The automatic cycle is initiated by an operator-controlled foot switch or other external switch closure.

The system is available in two models - the EZ-Filla^TM 2100 for smaller cartridges and the EZ-Filla^TM 2200 for larger ones. The smaller version can be used for back filling of dual syringes.
