IWKA TFS15 Tube Filler

Listing description

The IWKA TFS15 is a versatile tube filling machine, engineered to deliver an output of 30 to 70 tubes per minute. It is capable of packaging a wide range of products, including toothpaste, glue, milk, pastes, and creams, catering to various industries such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, technical-chemical, and food. The machine is designed to handle tubes of specific dimensions and can process metal tubes.

The machine’s speed, and consequently its output per minute, can be adjusted continuously within set limits. The majority of the machine’s movements are mechanically transmitted via the transmission shaft through closed cams, roller levers, and tie rods. A rotary table with centralized height adjustment transports the tubes in 10 step-by-step tube holders to the modular construction workstations. The working speed is regulated by a step-by-step control mechanism.

The filling device is tailored to the products to be packed in the tube, ensuring a largely air or bubble-free filling. The closure points of the tubes depend on the tube material, with metal tubes being closed by folding (double, triple, or saddle), and plastic tubes and hot air-welded laminated material being sealed differently.

The machine’s main control panel houses almost all the switching and control elements necessary for its operation. The machine also features a simple and convenient format modification, ensuring its wide applicability.

The TFS15 operates on a standard voltage of 3 x 400 V (three-phase current) with a frequency of 50 Hz. It has a power consumption of 1.4 kW (without accessories) and requires a working pressure of 6 bar. The machine’s weight varies depending on the closure version, with the metal closing version weighing up to 1300 kg. The machine can handle tubes with a diameter of 11 to 52 D and a total length of up to 280 L1. It can dispense dosages ranging from 2.0 to 400 ml. The noise emission value is approximately 75 dB(A).
