Body Lotion Filling Equipment

Filling lines are used extensively in all industries, such as food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cosmetics, to accurately package different products into a container suitable for that product. Although the filling process is at the very end of the production line, it is no less important than the earlier steps. Last but not least, the idiom that dates back to 1382 when John Wyclif wrote the firste the laste, and the laste the firste, indicates just that the last things on a list are just as valuable as the previous ones. In this case, this idiom fits perfectly.

Filling

Every minute, your skin loses between 30,000 and 40,000 dead skin cells. This means losing millions of cells every day, which makes your skin look less glowing. Being a moisturizing agent, body lotion has the power to hydrate your skin and  give the glow back to it. Production involves water and oil phases, which you then mix with an emulsifier and blend until homogeneous. Preservatives are essential for any solution containing water for the prevention of microbial growth.

High-speed, high precision X-ray system to inspect containers that are difficult to see through, such as cans or cartons lined with aluminium.


<h2>State of the art fill level inspection for foiled containers and bottles</h2>
The Newton X2Z from Miho is an X-ray fill level inspection unit that inspects foiled containers and bottles. It distinguishes itself by requiring less than a tenth of the average amount usually used for inspection by radiation for its measurement process. And thus the amount of radiation exposure is also reduced. This reduction is due to X-ray technology developed for this purpose by Miho inspection system.

The core piece of the High-precision X-ray fill level controller  is an X-ray generator, which in contrast to traditional X-ray fill level inspection units only generates X-rays for a short moment during the measuring process. The total radiation intensity is therefore only a fraction of what is the case with traditional X-ray fill level inspection units. The exact value depends upon the number of containers inspected.

High-precision X-ray fill level controller
