Abstract (en)

Containers are filled with liquid or powder products by a machine comprising a carousel (4) set in rotation about a vertical axis (5), a set of pedestals (6) carried by the carousel, on which the single containers (2) are supported and weighed during the filling operation, a set of first filler valves (17) delivering a first product, arranged about the axis (5) of rotation and movable as one with the carousel (4), and at least a set of second filler valves (19) delivering a second product. The machine also incorporates a system (20) that will position the first filler valves (17) or the second filler valves (19) alternately in alignment with the pedestals (6), so that a changoever from one type of product to another can be effected quickly and conveniently, with no need for operations to be suspended while tanks and pipelines are cleaned.
