Rotary Fillers and Inline Fillers

Pacific filling machines integrate a positive displacement pump that allows the operator to set the volume of product for each container. In order to set this value, the overall pump speed must be specified. The advantage of this system, is there is only one setting for the operator to specify in order to [...]

The restraining arm on a Pacific filler serves two purposes: (1) it keeps the the stator plate from turning, and (2) it allows adjustment of the start of fill/end of fill.
The “restraining” function holds the stator plate in the proper position. This is important to ensure the rotating plate receives the proper amount of [...]

Lubrication of your Pacific filling machine is important to ensure proper filling operation.
Throughout the years we have reduced the number of lubrication points, such that, with today’s latest models, there are less than eight (8) total lubrication points on the machine.
While our newer machines require less lubrication, we have included a complete list to cover [...]

If this is something you experience, use the following list of potential causes and solutions to troubleshoot and easily adjust the filling machine back to its original operating condition:
Non-smooth rotation of the filling turret and/or pump.
Solution: Verify the main spindle bearings are in good condition. Inspect the filling turret drive system for worn parts. [...]

In addition to continuous operation, Pacific filling machines maintain excellent accuracy during stop-start operation.
If over fill is something you experience, use the following list of potential causes and solutions to troubleshoot and easily adjust the filling machine back to its original operating condition:
The time-delay for the turret start rotation is too long. This allows [...]

Maintaining the recommended air pressure settings is important to ensure proper filling operation.
The machine must always be supplied with 80 to 100 PSI of clean, dry air with approximately10 CFM
While our newer machines utilize less air, we have included a complete list of the various air requirements below:
Pump Clutch (Older Machines): 70 PSI
Air Safety Switches [...]

The filling turret top plate (also called the stator) and bottom plate (also called the rotor) are critical parts that must be maintained yearly to keep your Pacific running its best.
Our recommended preventative maintenance goes a long way to ensure a long-life for the Teflon, and more importantly, eliminate product waste at the filling turret.
At [...]

Proper air manifold maintenance is very important given the unit plays a major role in producing consistent fill levels.
The unit is designed to last a very long time assuming it is properly maintained. Proper air manifold maintenance will also increase the life of the air hub manifold, which is extremely expensive to replace.
The following [...]

There are two main reasons for removing the filling turret top plate. The first is to periodically inspect the plates for cleanliness as part of your cleaning or sanitation process. The second is for infrequent reconditioning of the filling turret Teflon top plate.
In the event removal of your top plate is required, it is [...]
