Conventional Filling Guns

Conventional filling guns are the most common instruments used to manually pick and deliver precise doses of dry, powdered, or granular products. They are classified in three size ranges… “Standard”, “Micro” and “Nano”.

Most frequently, they are used in conjunction with the Model 4400/VC or the Model 4400/PVC Vacuum Console Powder Fillers. However, they also may be used with the enhanced Model 5270/VC, Vacuum Console.

We refer to these guns as “conventional” because operate in what we arbitrarily define to be a conventional manner. That is, they pick-up and compact the powder doses by vacuum, and dispense them with a puff of low pressure compressed air, both of which are supplied by the Vacuum Console Units.

In critical applications, a small, bidirectional flow control valve can be added to the filling gun port for more precise control of the delivered air.

The chamber volumes of all conventional filling guns are adjustable for fine tuning the weight of the delivered dose.


“Standard” Size, Conventional Filling Guns

Standard size guns are offered in moderate to large diameters for the delivery of correspondingly moderate to large fills.
