High Precision Automatic Drum Filling Equipment for Lubricants

In the lubricant industry, accuracy, efficiency, and safety are essential in bulk liquid packaging. High precision automatic drum filling equipment for lubricants offers an advanced solution for filling 200L drums, 1000L IBC totes, and other large containers, ensuring consistent quality and minimizing waste.

Precision Filling Technology

Modern automatic drum fillers use load-cell based net weight filling technology to achieve filling accuracy within ±0.1–0.2%, providing precise control over every container. Multi-stage filling—with fast bulk filling followed by a slow top-off—prevents overfill, reduces splashing, and minimizes foam formation, which is particularly important for high-viscosity lubricants.

Features Designed for Lubricants

This equipment is engineered to handle a wide variety of lubricants, including:

• Engine oils

• Hydraulic and transmission fluids

• Gear oils and industrial lubricants

• Specialty oils for machinery and automotive applications

Key design features include:

• Stainless steel (SS304/SS316L) wetted parts for durability and chemical resistance

• Anti-drip and dive-in nozzles for clean filling

• Explosion-proof options for flammable lubricants

• PLC touchscreen control with recipe storage and batch management

Automation for Efficiency

High precision automatic drum filling equipment integrates seamlessly into production lines, including:

• Automated drum and IBC positioning

• Tare and zeroing for accurate net weight filling

• Conveyors, capping, and palletizing options for end-to-end automation

• Real-time monitoring and diagnostics for improved workflow

Throughput typically reaches 40–60 drums per hour or 8–12 IBC totes per hour, allowing manufacturers to scale production without compromising quality.

Safety and Compliance

Lubricant filling often involves flammable or hazardous liquids. The equipment is designed with:

• ATEX-certified explosion-proof components

• Grounding and static discharge systems

• Spill containment trays to prevent leaks

• VOC emission control options for environmentally sensitive operations

Benefits of High Precision Drum Filling Equipment

• Unmatched filling accuracy reduces product loss

• Higher productivity with full automation

• Enhanced safety in hazardous environments

• Flexibility for different container sizes and lubricant types

• Long-term reliability with stainless steel construction
