Processes:
Bottom-Up Volumetric.
Model 702-5G Automatic (3 to 5 gallon Filler)
This filling solution, utilizing the container as the measuring device, was
pioneered by the founder of T.D. Sawvel. Bearing the trademark 'BOTTOM-UP®',
this proprietary process allows the container to be filled from the bottom
to the top, eliminating air gaps in the product. Each container is filled
to the exact same volume. Most machines equipped with this fill system
also feature continuous product flow.
Products: Ice cream, whipped butter, frozen yogurt or similar viscous product that does not seek their own level and can be supplied continuously.
Container Sizes: 1 quart to six gallon.

Time Fillers
Model 135-TF/ Model 700-1 / Model 111R
Time fillers are a stand-out solution for small container filling. Sometimes referred to as pressure filling, time fillers cycle continuously in an exact repeatable sequence. The fill valve open time varies with the cycle speed, allowing operators to adjust the cycle speed to match the output of product supply.
T.D.Sawvel has designed reliability and
flexibility into its new Model 111R compact rotary filler. The 111R denests,
fills, seals and lids containers from 3 to 32oz at speeds up to 70 containers per minute.
The 24" square main fram houses a Camco® precision indexer with variable speed
ac inverter driver and features mechanical operation for the container
"discharge lift" and "sweep off" ensuring smooth, reliable operation
at all speeds. Easily convert the machine from one size container to another
with change parts for plastic or paper packaging.
Choice of Fill Systems: Time Fill, Volumetric Piston Fill or Volumetric Dry Ingredient Fill - allow the 111R.
Products: Ice cream, whipped butter, frozen
yogurt, cottage cheese, salads, small hard candies or any products that
can be supplied continuously, but filled intermitently.
