A tube filler, at its core, comprises several critical components:
The Tube Feeding Device orients the tubes and sends them to the filling station. The Filling Station pumps the product into the tube with the help of a piston or peristaltic pump, depending on the machine type. The Sealing Station then folds, crimps, or heat-seals the tube. Lastly, the Ejection Unit discharges the filled and sealed tubes from the machine.
The entire operation is orchestrated with precision timing to ensure efficiency and product quality.
