Semi-automatic weight jerrycan filler VG · VGDB

The YM Packaging VG and VGDB semi-automatic weight jerrycan fillers fill liquids into jerrycans with ±0.2 % accuracy: a load cell controls the fill weight in real time. The VG, with one nozzle, fills jerrycans from 5 to 50 kg; the VGDB, with two nozzles and dual filling flow, fills from 3 to 35 kg and has long immersion nozzles for foaming liquids. They are compact, easy-to-maintain machines designed for small and medium production.

Jerrycans

Jerrycans

Jerrycans from 5 to 50 kg (VG) and from 3 to 35 kg (VGDB).

How it works

  1. Positioning

    The operator places the jerrycan on the rollers, under the filling nozzle.

  2. Weight filling

    The load cell weighs the jerrycan in real time while the nozzle fills. On the VGDB, the dual flow fills fast and finishes the dose accurately.

  3. Drip-free shut-off

    When the set weight is reached, the nozzle closes with its suction anti-drip system.

  4. Removal

    The full jerrycan is moved off on the rollers and the machine is ready for the next one.
