How many finished jars per hour can we expect?
The DANA api MATIC 2000+ has a stated pump capacity of approximately 400 L/h. This describes the pump's output; the finished jar rate also depends on fill size, product flow, container loading and the time needed to place and fit each lid. Send us your pack sizes and target output so we can assess the complete workflow.
Does the PRO station use a more powerful filler than the standalone 2000+?
It uses the DANA api MATIC 2000+ filling machine. The PRO adds container handling, lid fitting and workspace around that filler. These additions help organise the batch and reduce handling between tasks; they do not increase the pump's stated capacity.
Does it place lids on jars automatically?
The operator takes a lid from the dispenser and places it on the filled jar. The lid fitter then screws it into position when the operator presses the handle.
Can one person operate the station?
Swienty describes the station as suitable for one or two operators. The best arrangement depends on the filling and lid-fitting workload, your pack sizes and the output you need.
Can we use different jar and lid sizes?
The filling height is adjustable, and the lid fitter has adjustable torque. Each jar and lid combination still needs checking for clearance, guidance and compatibility. Send us dimensions and lid details before ordering.
Can it fill products other than honey?
Other products may be suitable. Tell us what you are filling, how it flows, whether it contains particles, its filling temperature and the dose and container you use. We can check the application with Swienty before recommending a setup.
Do we need a hopper?
A hopper is one possible way to feed the filler. A suitable vessel connected by hose may also be appropriate. The connection and supply arrangement should be checked for your product and workspace.
How do we switch between regular pack sizes?
Store separate filling programmes for your regular doses, then recall the appropriate programme for the next batch. Adjust the filling height and guides as needed, and check the dose and lid-fitting setup before continuing production.
What information should we send with an enquiry?
Include the product, filling temperature, target doses, jar dimensions, lid type, batch sizes and target output. Photos of the jars and lids, plus the available workspace, will help us check the configuration.
