Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2019048051A1] A system (20) for automated adjustment of a container filling machine (1) having: a number of filling units (10) for filling of containers (2) during a production phase, coupled to a rotating conveyor (4) designed to rotate around a rotation axis (A); and a machine control unit designed to manage filling operations by the filling units (10) according to a filling recipe. The system (20) is provided with a processing module (12, 28), coupled to a HMI module (27) and to a storage database (29) to determine a new filling recipe, based on user input information received via the HMI module (27) and known characteristics of the filling machine (1) stored in the storage database (29); wherein the processing module is further configured to control execution of filling operations at a validation filling station (30), during a recipe-validation phase preceding the production phase; receive feedback information about measured parameters related to the filling operations being performed; and iteratively adjust the new filling recipe until the measured parameters satisfy a desired relation with desired filling parameters.
