Product Specification

Fully Automatic Hummus Filling Machine

Hummus, also known as hommus or houmous, is a popular Middle Eastern dip, spread, or savory dish made from cooked and mashed chickpeas, blended with tahini, lemon juice, and garlic. Traditionally garnished with olive oil, a few whole chickpeas, parsley, and paprika, it’s a staple in Middle Eastern cuisine.

Typically enjoyed as a dip with pita bread in the Middle East, hummus has also gained popularity in the West, where it is produced on an industrial scale and often served as a snack or appetizer alongside crackers or vegetables.

The full automatic hummus filling machine boasts an array of exceptional features designed for precision and reliability. Built with food-grade, high-grade stainless steel and premium materials, it ensures durability, hygiene, and strict compliance with food safety standards. This linear type machine features state-of-the-art filling nozzles and customizable speed settings, accommodating various sauce viscosities, from thin dressings to thick marinades, with a filling range of 25g-500g, catering to diverse production needs.

Controlled by an advanced PLC system, the machine ensures mess-free filling with minimal wastage, optimizing resource utilization. Additionally, anti-drip mechanisms and precise bottle positioning systems maintain packaging cleanliness, delivering a premium, high-quality product to consumers.

Main Features

1. The machine parts that come into contact with the sauce can be customized using food-grade 304/316 stainless steel. Additionally, the diameter of the rotary valve can be tailored to ensure smooth filling, even for hot sauces containing particles.

2. An optional horizontal mixing hopper is available, which ensures the hot sauce remains evenly mixed during the filling process, thereby improving both filling accuracy and overall quality.

3. Multiple filling nozzles can be customized to meet various production requirements.

4. Equipped with a feeding pump, this machine saves labor by automatically supplying filling material into the hopper, ensuring a continuous and timely filling process.

5. The filling speed is adjustable and can be separated into two stages: the initial filling stage and the end filling stage. Each stage's speed can be controlled independently, preventing splashing during the filling process and enhancing filling accuracy.

6. Controlled by a servo motor, the machine allows the operator to set the desired filling volume easily by entering the specific number on the touch screen control panel, making the machine more convenient to operate and adjust.

FAQ

Factors to Consider When Selecting a Sauce Filling Machine

When choosing a sauce filling machine, several important factors must be taken into account:

1. Viscosity: Unlike typical liquids, sauces often have a high viscosity. It's crucial to ensure that the filling machine can handle thick sauces without the risk of clogging or inconsistent filling. Machines must be equipped to manage the thickness of the sauce efficiently.

2. Filling Capacity: Manufacturers should consider the required production output and select a machine that meets the necessary filling capacity per unit of time, ensuring the machine aligns with production goals.

3. Packaging Container: Sauces are commonly packaged in bottles, jars, or bags. The size, shape, and material of the chosen container will influence the selection of the filling machine. Different containers may require different types of filling machines to accommodate their specific needs.

4. Budget: Cost-effectiveness is another key consideration. This includes the initial investment, maintenance, and operating costs. Manufacturers must balance their budget constraints with the machine’s capabilities. Sauce filling machines can be either semi-automatic or fully automatic. For manufacturers just starting sauce production, a stable and user-friendly semi-automatic machine is a good choice. Those aiming for higher output might prefer fully automatic machines.

What challenges will we face when filling chili sauce?

1. Uneven Filling: The viscosity of sauce may vary with time or temperature changes, affecting the accuracy and consistency of the filling process. To address this, filling machines can be equipped with a mixer in the storage hopper or a pre-processing machine with a mixing function (such as a mixing tank) to ensure even and accurate filling. An optional heater can also help maintain the sauce’s consistency.

2. Particle Blockage: Some sauces contain small particles, like peppers or spices, which can cause blockages in the filling machine. To prevent this, the filling pump, nozzles, and hoses need to be customized. For example, a piston pump can be fitted with a larger rotary valve to accommodate bigger pepper granules.

3. Sauce Dripping: Viscous sauces tend to cling to the filling nozzle, leading to drips as the nozzle withdraws from the container. This issue can be effectively solved by using customized anti-drip nozzles, which prevent sauce from dripping and maintain a clean filling process.

4. Cleaning Difficulties: Sauces can leave stubborn residues on the filling machine, making cleaning a challenging task. The thick consistency and spice content may require thorough disassembly, specialized cleaning agents, and extensive procedures to ensure proper hygiene and prevent cross-contamination. To address this, piston pump filling machines are designed to be easier to clean, simplifying maintenance and ensuring cleanliness.
