Filling

“Filling”, “dosing” and even certain forms of “batching” often overlap in industrial processes. All involve accurately dispensing a defined quantity of product into a container, vessel or process line — and load‑cell‑based systems remain one of the most reliable ways to achieve this.

Filling Applications

A common filling application Weigh Sol supports is the Gravimetric Filling System, where containers must be filled as accurately as possible. This is especially important for trade‑approved, sold‑by‑weight products. Typical examples include:

• Small tubs or pails (10–30kg), filled individually or stacked in multi‑layer pallet quantities
• 205‑litre drums (traditional 45‑gallon barrels) or their ~200kg equivalents, filled singly or four per pallet
• 1000‑litre IBCs, tote bins or tanks, requiring precise and repeatable filling

Gravimetric filling ensures each container receives exactly the correct amount of product, regardless of density or flow characteristics.

Weigh Sol Filling Solutions

Weigh Sol offers a wide range of platform scales to suit any of the above container types — in any combination required for your filling process. Systems can also be supplied for classified hazardous (ATEX‑rated) environments, where flammable atmospheres demand specialist equipment.

Filling Operations

For straightforward filling tasks, such as simple decanting, systems can be supplied with a dedicated weighing controller. For more complex filling requirements, Weigh Sol works closely with trusted partner suppliers who provide specialised filling apparatus. Together, we deliver complete weighing‑based filling solutions tailored to your process.
