Can filling/seaming device and can filling/seaming method
A can filling/seaming device that fills a can with a liquid content and seals the can with a lid by double-seaming allows a filler and a seamer to be integrated in a compact arrangement. A can filling/seaming device includes a filler that fills a can with a liquid content while conveying the can by rotation of a filling turret, a seamer that attaches a lid to the can filled with the content by double-seaming, and a forwarding turret provided between a carrying-out position of the filling turret and a carrying-in position to the seamer to circularly convey the can filled with the content, wherein a lid supply part is provided on the forwarding turret.
QUALITY CONTROL WHEN FILLING A CONTAINER WITH A FILLING PRODUCT
A device for filling a container with a filling product (e.g., in a beverage filling system), includes: a product tank for providing the filling product, wherein a head space with a gas atmosphere is located above the filling product in the product tank; at least one filling member with a filling valve which is fluidically connected to the product tank for introducing the filling product from the product tank into the container to be filled and a gas channel for treating the container to be filled with a gas and/or for discharging gas from the container; a measuring apparatus for analyzing the gas atmosphere in the head space; and a control apparatus which is communicatively coupled to the measuring apparatus and which is designed to determine a process performance, (e.g., a quality of the filled filling product), from the analysis of the gas atmosphere in the head space.
