High speed filling machine, type KOF-125

This is our newest filling machine. 25 elements are filled at the same time and the filling speed is higher compared with KOF-24. KOF 125 is used for elements of diameter 7,5 mm and thicker, since the system with three filling tubes requires more inner space than the systems with one or two filling tubes. The minimum tube diameter depends on outer coil diameter as well as on tube wall thickness. The filling speed and MgO grain size will also be influencing factors.

KOF-125 uses a three-tube filling system, i e one more filling tube that the traditional filling machines. The third tube acts as a sleeve/valve, which opens and closes the flow of MgO. The flow can be opened and closed at any time during filling. The big advantages with the three-tube filling system is:

1. The MgO has free fall with a minimum resistance through the bores in the outer filling
tube. The filling speed may be increased by as much as four times, in some cases. The
risk of getting clogs in the MgO is smaller, which means that the tap density through a set
of filled tubes will be more uniform.

2. When the tube are resting in between the fillings, no waste of MgO will be noticed
leaving the filling tubes
The filling speed is steplessly controlled, and can be chosed based on tube and coil
diameter.
Changing data is done within a minute from the control panel. The technique is simple and
easily understood. The following data can be changed:
– Filling speed
– Element tube length
– MgO level
– Terminal pin length outside tube
– Post filling vibration time

The machine is loaded with a fixture (or by hand). Therefore, it can work with the automatic sealing equipment type KSO. An efficient filling cell can be formed by one KTS tube stacker, two KOF filling machines, and one KSO work together, with subsequent feeding of the elements into the feeding device of the rolling mill. The loading fixture shortens the time of handling considerably. (Note: If the elements are very long, it may not be possible to load and unload with the fixture.)

The machine comprises:
– Frame
– Control panel
– Filling set
– Filling set for elements with 2, 3 or 4 coils (option)

 

Features/benefits

  • High filling speeds (practically often around 400 mm/min)
  • Rapid parameter changes
  • Reduced handling time by introducing the stacker of empty tubes, rack loading of empty tubes, rack unloading of elements and automatic sealing of the elements
