Drum & Container Fillers
Container Filling Systems: In-Use Advantages
NBE bulk container filling systems enable bulk material packaging and processing operations to run at designed speeds without concern for constant material waste, re-work, and excess labor costs common with under-performing bulk container loading equipment.
NBE bulk container filling systems, with integrated NTEP-certified scales, go beyond basic load cell accuracy to provide certified, continual, precision filling and weighing to +/- .01% accuracy. Precision filling, on a certified and repeatable basis, assures operations, supervision, and management personnel that containers are stable and safe, material loss is eliminated, and line operations are optimized.

Container Filling Systems: Features & Integration Guide
Heavy Gauge Materials, Heavy-duty Construction:
NBE bulk container filling systems are constructed of thick-walled, 6" x 4" x 5/16" structural tubing, and carbon or stainless steel sheet and plate to ensure extended equipment life cycles. NBE bulk material handling equipment uses the industry’s highest motor HP and torque rated gear reducers and drives, and the largest standard hydraulic and pneumatic cylinder bore sizes to optimize performance in harsh and sanitary environments, and deliver reliable operation in even the most demanding duty cycles.

Integrated Automation & Control Systems:
NBE integrated automation centralizes process control, communication, sensing, monitoring, and reporting into a single, menu-driven, touch-screen HMI. High-speed Ethernet communications deliver information between NBE equipment, and legacy systems, to UL listed panels designed and built by NBE. NBE integrated automation delivers to the HMI a standard data report from the entire control layer. Broader controls functionality and increased data reporting improve resource management, reduce operating burden, and extend equipment lifecycles.

NTEP-certified, Precision Weigh Systems:
NBE NTEP-certified weigh systems give bulk container filling operations the assurance of consistently repeatable, highly accurate (+/- .01%) finished package weights. The assured accuracy and repeatability of NBE NTEP-certified weigh systems is the result of specific engineering and fabrication, and design-stage integration of NTEP-certified weigh devices. Typical weigh systems, using bolt-on load cells or third-party NTEP scale components, may produce variable weight outcomes if not accurately calibrated to the host filling system. The precision accuracy of NBE NTEP-certified weigh systems reduces material loss with each fill cycle; eliminating re-work, reducing labor costs and inventory, and improving total process optimization.

Single-station, Variable Container Filling & Densification:
NBE single-station, bulk container filling for drums, cartons, gaylords, bulk bags, and other bulk containers advances beyond common rotating fill head designs to provide container-specific filling, densification, and NTEP-certified weighing. The NBE single-station variable container filling system has a proprietary densification design integrating two densifying methods. This enables varied container types to be process through the same fill station while ensuring precise fill volume and weigh accuracy.
