ALLIEDFLEX® Technologies - http://www.alliedflex.com - 1.941.923.1181 The FLX Rotary Duo SpoutFill Filling and Capping Machine for spouted Standup Pouches has been designed for the automatic filling and capping of stand-up spouted flexible pouches with liquid and viscous products.

Standard and Optional Features:
• Compact Rotary Duplex (2 UP)
• Nitrogen Flush
• System fills 60-80 Pouches Per Minute
• Filling volume of 90 grams to 120 grams
• Feed Rails of Pre-Made Spouted Pouches
• Volumetric Pump Filler
• Bowl Feeder Automatic Cap Feeding
• Steam Flush for extended Shelf Life (Option)

Method of Operation Multiple rows of premade spouted pouches are loaded on to in-feed rails. Two rows of pouches are continuously and automatically loaded into the system. Pouches in groups of two are inserted into the rotary carrier wheel. The rotary carrier Star Wheel in constricted of AISI 304 stainless steel specifically for handling the pouch by its spout carrier slot (1 size). Filling operation is by diving nozzle valve, for product dosing inside the neck of the spout, depending on the type of product to be dosed and the diameter of the spout, it is also possible to fill with a fixed nozzle valve depending on the application and product characteristics.

A Vibratory Bowl Feeder delivers caps via a rail system to a capping unit to apply and torque caps after the filling operation. The closure of the cap is performed by means of a pneumatic motor with torque control by pressure regulation or by an electric motor with a hysteresis magnetic clutch, depending on the application requirements. Control Intelligence via Pouch Presence Sensors, Cap Presence, Cap Rail Channel Full or Empty.

Major Advantage of Filling Through the Spout
• Reduce material usage due to reduced required head space
• More stable filling of difficult foaming products
• Quick changeover in pouch size, shape and pouch style
• Eliminate top seal contamination
