Federal Mfg. Introduces its Most Advanced Series of High Speed Dairy Filling Machines

May 27, 2015

PEWAUKEE, Wis. — Federal Mfg., powered by ProMach, introduces its most advanced series of high speed dairy filling machines, which will help dairies achieve maximum productivity and operate at peak efficiency for decades with low cost of ownership. These fillers are suitable for both dairy products and juices. One of these machines has the potential to replace two slower fillers and help reduce dairy operating costs. Each machine in the series is 3-A certified for hygienic construction and operation.

Large container machines in the series can fill up to 175 gallon containers per minute and are rated at up to 360 half-gallon containers at per minute (whole milk speeds). Filling speeds for small container machines – quarts, pints, and half pints – can reach as high as 1,100 containers per minute.

Every major system was analyzed and engineering choices were made on the basis of uptime, long service life, and ease of maintenance. For example, mechanical filling valves, rather than electronic valves, were selected after careful analysis showed the electric valves in a dairy’s wash down environment were prone to failure over time and were costly and time consuming to replace.

Each machine is crafted of stainless steel. Fit and finish is designed to deny bacteria crevasses in which to grow. These machines feature dedicated, closed-coupled, clean-in-place units, which control the circulation of cleaning fluids and maintain proper fluid concentrations for optimum usage of supplies. Allen-Bradley control systems were selected based on readily available replacements parts and a wide network of local distributors with trained technical support personnel.

“When one of the new series is installed in a dairy it is going to be the most productive filling machine the dairy has ever owned,” said Mike Collins, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Federal Mfg. “It is important for everyone to know that the original machines, the ones this series is based upon, are today operating in the largest dairies in the world and are performing flawlessly.”
