Task
To transfer various ointments and creams from 200-liter drums into the storage tanks of tube filling machines. The materials are highly viscous, paste-like, and in some cases do not flow on their own. At the same time, safe and clean handling of residual quantities is required.
Requirements
- Pumping of highly viscous, non-flowable media
- Hygienic drum emptying; suitable for pharmaceutical applications
- No leakage of residual quantities
- Flexibly adjustable flow rate
Solution in Detail
A VISCOFLUX mobile S portable drum emptying system with an F 560 S progressive cavity pump empties the drums via a follow-up plate. The speed control allows for adjustable flow rate. The system operates independently of the power grid and can be used flexibly.
Result
Remaining quantity in the barrel less than 1% – nearly completely emptied
No leakage of fluid due to the tightly sealed cover plate
Reliable delivery of high-viscosity and non-flowable ointments
Flexible Conveyor Capacity Through Speed Control
Off-grid operation thanks to a built-in battery
