Dispensing & Filling Systems

A filling system can fill packaging with a fixed amount of liquid. A filling systems consist of several filling units with integrated peristaltic pumps. With the controller you can control up to 16 or 32 filling units, depending on the type of filling system. 

Filling systems can be used for wide range of applications, such as

  • in the food industry where packages are filled with milk, juice or water.
  • in the pharmaceutical industry, where sterile medical packages can be filled with vaccines, sterile injections or oral drugs.
  • in the cosmetics industry, where containers are filled with skin care liquids or detergents.

LONGER and Shenchen have a large selection of dosing and filling systems, as you can see in their catalogs below.

There are many different filling systems for filling packaging with a fixed amount of liquid as you can see in the videos below. 

Peristaltic pump filling system for microporous plate

Peristaltic filling system for industrial use

Programmable Filling Systems  - PDS systems

If you need a customized solution, where different amounts need to be dosed through each channel, we can also help with this.

Please send us your requirements and we will help you find the right solution. 

Functions and features

  • One controller can control a maximum of 8 pump units
  • Each pump unit can have the same or different pump heads installed
  • 4 different working modes
    • Logic working mode - each unit working coorperatively. Filling or transferring in order with same of different volumes for automatic mixing.
    • Independent working mode - For filling different volumes with each filling unit.
    • Independent and step filling working mode - This function is suitable for preventing foaming and fluid splashing.
    • Comprehensive working mode includes all of the above functions.

Each pump unit can have the same or different pump heads installed.  
Each pump unit can be separate or integrated together in a cabinet.

Detailed Description of the 4 Working Modes

  • PDS – Logical Working Mode  
    Filling different volumes in sequence. Used, for example, for automatic mixing of liquids.  
    In logical mode, each device works in cooperation with filling or transferring in sequence, and different volumes for automatic mixing.  
    Maximum 50 steps.  
    Common mode function to save 5 frequently used settings.  
    Operating time is from 0.1 sec. to 9999 hours.  
    Step trigger method: time trigger or external trigger  
    Calibration: Each step can be calibrated separately, also with online micro-adjust function.
  • PDSII - Independent Working Mode 
    Please find the datasheet for the PDSII systems here. 
    Each unit can fill different volumes.  
    Each unit can fill or transfer.  
    Common mode function to save 5 frequently used settings.  
    Each filling unit can be calibrated and has an online micro-adjustment function.  
    Dosing time from 0.1-9999 sec.  
    Pause time from 0.1-9999 sec.  
    Number of repetitions from 1-9999 and can be set to “0” for infinite repetitions.  
    External control with RS232/RS485, Modbus protocol (RTU mode)
  • PDSIII - Independent and steps filling working mode  
    In independent work mode, each filling unit can perform a filling process with several different dosing volumes. This function is, for example, good for avoiding foaming and liquid splashing. This process can be repeated many times to achieve complicated dosing tasks.  
    Transfer and Dispensing Mode  
    Each unit can register the total transferred volume in transfer mode.  
    Dispensing steps: It can dispense in 3 steps and have different parameters for each step.  
    Calibration: Each step can be calibrated separately and has an online micro-adjustment function.  
    Dispensing time from 0.1-9999.99 sec.  
    Pause time from 0.1-9999.99 sec.  
    Number of repetitions from 1-9999 and can be set to “0” for infinite repetitions.  
    External control with RS232/RS485, Modbus protocol (RTU mode)
  • PDSIV - Comprehensive Control Option  
    Includes all the above features.
