Can it fill sauces, spreads or cosmetic products?
The DANA range is used for suitable viscous food and cosmetic products. Compatibility depends on how your recipe flows at the filling temperature, its ingredients, particles and the outlet required. Send us those details so we can check the application with Swienty; a sample test may be needed.
When should I choose the 2000+ over the 1000?
The 2000+ offers greater pump capacity and a route to approved hot filling. It is worth considering when your required output or filling temperature calls for those capabilities. We can compare both machines against your product, pack sizes and batch requirements.
Does it weigh each container?
No. You use a scale to calibrate test fills, then the machine dispenses the set dose. Continue to check fills during production as appropriate; saved programmes do not replace checks when the product or filling conditions change.
How many containers per hour can I expect?
The result depends on the dose, product flow, outlet, feed arrangement and how quickly containers are changed. The 400 L/h figure describes pump capacity. Tell us your pack sizes and required output so we can assess the complete filling workflow.
Can the standard machine fill hot products?
The standard configuration has a maximum product temperature of 40°C. Swienty offers hot-fill equipment for approved applications up to 95°C, but the full setup must suit your process. Tell us both the filling and cleaning temperatures before ordering.
Do I need a hopper, or can I connect it to my tank?
A hopper is optional. A suitable vessel can feed the pump through a hose connection. Tank fittings, hose length, vessel height and product consistency affect the setup, so send us details of your existing equipment.
Does it need compressed air?
The standard 2000+ filler is electrically driven and does not require a compressed-air supply. Any additional equipment will have its own requirements, which we will confirm when specifying the setup.
How do I clean it between products?
The product-contact parts can be disassembled for cleaning. Follow the supplied instructions for emptying, disconnecting, cleaning and reassembly. If you need allergen changeovers or a particular cleaning process, include those requirements when you enquire.
