FAG Fully Automatic Double-Head Vertical Tube Filling Machine

Q: What is the FAG fully automatic double-head vertical tube filling machine?

The FAG 300 is an automatic filling machine for high-viscosity sealants, glass adhesives and compatible adhesive formulations. It combines container feeding, servo-controlled volumetric filling, bottom-cap placement, cap pressing and finished-product unloading.

Q: What filling volume does the FAG 300 support?

The maximum listed filling volume is 310 mL and the setting is adjustable through the touch screen. The minimum usable volume and suitability for each package should be confirmed for the application.

Q: What is the filling speed?

The listed machine production rate is 15–35 pieces per minute. Actual output depends on the product, fill volume, container and operating conditions.

Q: How accurate is the filling system?

The listed volumetric filling accuracy is within ±0.5%. The machine uses a servo-controlled measuring cylinder. This is a volume specification; a target filled weight also depends on product density.

Q: Which tasks still require an operator?

The operator replenishes empty containers and bottom caps and sets the filling parameters. The machine then automatically feeds, fills, places and presses bottom caps, and unloads containers during the production cycle.

Q: What type of tubes and closures can be used?

The equipment is intended for compatible plastic hard tubes or containers with a bottom-cap placement and pressing process. Tube diameters are customized, so the tube and bottom-cap dimensions or samples are needed for selection.

Q: Is a material filter included?

Yes. A material filtration device is listed as standard. Its suitability should be reviewed against the product formulation, particularly where fillers or other solid ingredients are intentionally present.

Q: What utilities does the machine require?

The listed requirements are 380 V / 50 Hz electrical power, compressed air at least 0.5 MPa and air consumption below 0.3 m³/min.

Automate the filling and bottom-cap pressing of plastic hard tubes for sealants and glass adhesives. The FAG 300 combines servo-controlled volumetric dosing with automatic container feeding, cap placement, pressing and unloading.

Filling Principle

How Does the FAG Automatic Tube Filler Work?

The operator supplies empty containers and bottom caps, then sets the required fill volume on the touch screen. The PLC coordinates automatic container feeding, metered filling, bottom-cap placement, pressing and unloading.

A servo motor controls the volumetric measuring cylinder to deliver the selected dose. The machine handles the subsequent cap operations in the same production sequence, reducing the need to transfer each container manually between separate tasks.

Operators replenish tubes and bottom caps. The machine automates the feeding, filling, cap-placement, pressing and unloading cycle.

Metering and Handling in One SequenceCoordinated controls connect the fill setting with the packaging operations.

Servo Volumetric Dosing

The measuring cylinder controls the volume delivered to each container. Filling parameters are adjusted through the touch screen.

Automatic Cap Handling

The bottom cap is placed and pressed after filling, followed by automatic unloading of the finished container.

Key Features of the FAG 300

Each function supports a defined part of the filling and packaging sequence, from empty-container supply to finished-product unloading.

Automatic Container FeedingThe feeding system supplies empty plastic tubes or containers to the filling sequence after the operator replenishes them.

Double-Head Vertical FillingA double-head arrangement combines filling with the subsequent bottom-cap operations in an automatic cycle.

Servo Volumetric MeteringA servo-controlled measuring cylinder sets the fill volume, with dosing parameters adjusted through the touch screen.

PLC & Touch-Screen ControlThe PLC coordinates machine actions while the touch screen provides access to filling settings and operating parameters.

Automatic Bottom-Cap HandlingThe machine places and presses bottom caps after filling, then unloads finished containers.

Standard Material FilterA filtration device is included in the material path. Filter suitability should be checked against the formulation and any intended solid ingredients.

Applications & Package Fit

Sealant & Adhesive Tube Filling Applications

The FAG is intended for viscous adhesive products packaged in compatible plastic hard tubes or containers using bottom-cap placement and pressing.

01 / SEALANTS

Sealant Filling

Fill high-viscosity sealants into compatible plastic hard tubes, with the filling and bottom-cap sequence handled by the machine.

02 / GLASS ADHESIVES

Glass Adhesive Packaging

Combine adjustable volumetric dosing with automatic container handling for glass-adhesive production.

03 / ADHESIVES

Other Viscous Adhesive Formulations

Evaluate other adhesive products using their flow behavior, required dose and actual tube and bottom-cap samples.

Package compatibility comes first. Send tube and bottom-cap drawings or samples with the product information. Diameter, length, opening geometry and closure fit must be considered together.

Equipment Selection

When Should You Choose the FAG Tube Filling Machine?

Start with the packaging sequence, target fill volume and required output when evaluating this double-head vertical filler.

Manual Handling Limits Output

Automating container feeding, dosing, bottom-cap placement and unloading helps coordinate packaging tasks within one machine sequence.

Your Line Needs Repeatable Fill Settings

Servo-controlled volumetric metering provides an adjustable fill setting for a defined product and package combination.

The Package Needs Bottom-Cap Pressing

The FAG is relevant when the packaging process includes a bottom cap that is placed and pressed after filling.

Automatic Filling Process

From Empty Tube to Filled and Capped Product

After replenishment and setup, the machine runs the following filling and cap-handling sequence.

Container SupplyThe operator replenishes empty containers and bottom caps; the machine feeds containers into the sequence.

Volumetric FillingServo-controlled measuring cylinders deliver the volume set through the touch screen.

Bottom-Cap PlacementThe automatic cap-handling operation places the bottom cap after filling.

Cap PressingThe machine presses the bottom cap into position on the filled container.

Finished-Product UnloadingFilled and capped containers leave the machine for the next packaging or handling step.

Continuous operation requires replenishment of containers, caps and filling material. The required feed arrangement is evaluated with the production line.
