Ideal for large-scale production environments seeking accuracy, speed, and reliability.[/caption]

What is an IBC Tote Filler?

An IBC tote filler is a semi-automatic or fully automatic liquid filling system designed to accurately dispense products into Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs), also known as totes. These containers typically hold 1000 liters (275–330 gallons) of liquid, making them ideal for transportation and storage.

The filler system uses weight-based filling technology (gravimetric filling) to ensure precise measurement while reducing product loss. It can be adapted for flammable liquids, corrosive chemicals, food-grade products, and high-viscosity materials.

Drum Filling Machines for 200L Barrels

For packaging 200L (55-gallon) steel or plastic drums, drum filling machines are widely used in chemical, oil, and food industries. They can be configured as:

• Semi-automatic drum filling machines – operator-guided filling with automatic weight control.

• Automatic drum and tote filling lines – fully integrated with conveyor, capping, and palletizing systems.

These systems improve production efficiency, reduce labor intensity, and minimize spillage during the filling process.

Key Features of IBC and Drum Filling Systems

• High Accuracy: Gravimetric filling with ±0.1–0.2% precision.

• Flexible Compatibility: Suitable for IBC totes, 200L drums, smaller pails, and even jerrycans.

• Explosion-Proof Design: Optional ATEX/Ex-proof systems for solvents and flammable liquids.

• Material Options: Stainless steel or anti-corrosive materials for acids and alkalis.

• Automation Options: From semi-automatic to fully automatic conveyorized lines with capping and palletizing.

Applications of IBC and Drum Filling Equipment

• Chemical industry – acids, alkalis, solvents, resins

• Lubricants and oils – motor oil, hydraulic oil, grease

• Paints and coatings – water-based and solvent-based products

• Food and beverage – edible oils, syrups, flavorings

• Pharmaceuticals – liquid raw materials, intermediates

Benefits of Choosing an IBC and Drum Filling System

✅ Reduced labor cost – automation streamlines production
✅ Improved safety – anti-drip nozzles and closed filling reduce operator exposure
✅ Consistent quality – precise weight control ensures uniform packaging
✅ Scalable production – adaptable from single-station filling to multi-head fully automatic lines

Conclusion

An IBC tote filler and drum filling machine is a versatile, reliable, and cost-effective solution for bulk liquid packaging. Whether you need a 200L drum filling system for chemicals or a 1000L IBC tote filler for lubricants or food products, investing in advanced filling technology ensures efficiency, accuracy, and long-term savings.
