Tomato juice filling machine
LevelPoint Level

Overview
The empty cans enter the filling machine on a conveyor belt. As soon as an individual can reaches the appropriate position for filling, it is pulled in with the help of a pneumatic cylinder and filled under vacuum with natural tomato juice. The level of juice in the supply tank is monitored by a radar sensor. In each filling cycle, the same amount of tomato juice is sucked out of the supply tank. Reliable point level detection ensures that all cans are filled equally.
