The FDS-5000-LM is an accurate and easy to operate powder filling machine with semi-automatic scale has automatic tare, automatic feed and speed controls for both bulk and dribble feed rates, and automatic set points. The product flow, from the hopper to the feed pan, can also be controlled by an adjustable slide gate. All product contact surfaces are stainless steel and easily disassembled: two screw knobs hold the funnel, two screw knobs hold the vibratory feed, four nuts hold the hopper. If needed, the scale and control panel can be removed from the table, and the table can be removed from the frame. This is the ideal filling machine for moving up from hand filling to automatic filling of bulk-sized cartons and bags.

Example: To run a relatively free-flowing product into a 10lb. package, the product is loaded into the hopper, and the target weight is set at 10lb. The package is placed on top of the scale, and the table is adjusted (up/down) so that the funnel is inside the bag in order to keep the bag "standing" when empty. After starting the first fill cycle with the foot pedal, the controller will automatically switch into "learn mode" for the first cycle. During this time the controller tests the flow characteristics of the product and decides the best speeds and durations for bulk and dribble. The controller will automatically change the vibratory feed from bulk to dribble and stop the scale at 10lb. The bag is removed and sealed. Each successive container is now filled by placing it under the funnel and depressing the foot pedal. Integrate this dry product filler with an indexing conveyor and you can also automatically fill rigid containers including jars and cans.
