High capacity volumetric filler for pumpable products

When you need high-speed, precise filling for diverse liquid and slurry products, this solution ensures minimal product waste and seamless integration into your production line, enhancing efficiency with its rapid product changeover and exceptional clean-in-place design.

Fills and Sterilizes Liquid and Slurry Products

The High Capacity Unifiller XL-U1281, offered by JBT, is a technologically advanced volumetric filler designed to meet the rigorous demands of high-speed production environments. What sets this machine apart is its innovative self-draining fill station and absence of traditional seals, ensuring unmatched filling accuracy and flexibility. Ideal for industries such as dairy, juices, pet food, and chemical processing, this filler handles a diverse range of products from low to high viscosity, including those with particles. Capable of processing up to 1500 containers per minute, the XL-U1281 integrates seamlessly into continuous operations, offering reliable high-speed performance. Its automatic Clean-In-Place (CIP) capability allows for efficient, contamination-free cleaning without disassembling fill stations, maximizing uptime. Constructed with a large XL-1200 frame, the filler supports fast product changeovers and ensures consistent headspace, crucial for in-container sterilization. The machine’s hygienic design and efficient operation make it a valuable asset for production lines requiring precision and versatility.
