Food-Grade Construction
Engineering Advantages
Built for Demanding Production Lines
Rotary Lobe Pump Technology
Each nozzle is driven by an individual motor-powered rotary pump delivering high-accuracy filling for viscous, foaming, and shear sensitive products without damaging product integrity.
SS304 Stainless Steel Construction
Full machine frame built in SS304 stainless steel ensuring hygiene compliance and durability for food, pharmaceutical, and chemical production environments.
Independent Volume Adjustment Per Nozzle
PLC combined with touch screen allows filling volume to be easily adjusted separately for each nozzle giving precise individual control across all filling heads simultaneously.
Diving Fill System
No Spillage The diving type filling system lowers the nozzle into the container before filling and rises as it fills — preventing spillage, foaming, and product waste on every cycle.
No Bottle No Fill Safety Device
Built-in sensor automatically detects missing containers and halts filling eliminating product waste and keeping the production line clean and efficient at all times.
20 Job Memory
Stores up to 20 product recipes for instant recall enabling fast and effortless changeover between different products and filling volumes without manual re-entry of parameters.

Frequently asked questions
Alpha Pack & Process makes packaging simple — from machine selection and installation to training and after-sales support, we’re here to help every step of the way.
What is the difference between the APFM lobe pump and the APFL piston pump filling machine?
The APFM uses a rotary lobe pump making it ideal for viscous, foaming, and shear-sensitive products like honey, creams, and sauces. The APFL piston pump is better suited for water-thin to mid-viscosity liquids. Choose based on your product's viscosity and sensitivity.
Can the machine handle foaming products without overflow?
Yes. The diving fill system lowers the nozzle to the bottom of the container and rises as it fills — significantly reducing foam formation and preventing spillage during the filling process.
How many product recipes can be stored?
The machine stores up to 20 job memories — allowing instant recall of saved filling parameters for fast product changeover without manual re-programming.
Does the machine work with different bottle sizes without requiring change parts?
Yes. No change parts are needed when switching between different bottle sizes — making format changes quick and simple with no additional tooling required.
