Description
Onion Skin Tube Filler built on principle of slant travel of tubes while filling and sealing, to take care of vide variation of tube neck dimensions & thicknesses of available standard tubes. The Filling unit built on Stainless Steel Square pipe frame and totally encompassed with Stainless Steel coverings, in pleasing matt finish. Further, the large opening available at the bottom side for ease of absolute cleaning. The pendant type electrical control panel is lifted from machine for ease of operation and safety.

FAQ of Onion Skin Tube Filler Sealer
How does the machine handle variations in tube neck size and thickness?
The machine is built on the principle of slant travel of tubes during filling and sealing. This design, combined with tube neck centering during gas flushing and filling, reliably processes standard tubes with differing neck dimensions and thicknesses.
What materials are used in the construction of the Onion Skin Tube Filler Sealer?
All product-contact parts are manufactured from high-quality Stainless Steel 316. Non-contact parts are made from Stainless Steel 304. The machine features a stainless-steel square-pipe frame fully enclosed with stainless-steel coverings in a matt finish.
Does the machine have a “No Tube – No Filling” safety feature?
Yes. It is equipped with a “No Tube – No Filling” system that prevents product discharge when a tube is absent, reducing waste and ensuring process safety.
Can nitrogen gas flushing be performed on this machine?
Yes. The machine allows nitrogen gas flushing before, during, and after filling. Tube neck centering is maintained throughout the gas-flushing and filling operations.
What is the typical process flow of the Onion Skin Tube Filler Sealer?
Sterilized tubes are loaded from a tray into the slant hopper. A synchronized star wheel delivers tubes one by one onto a moving eccentric tube rack. While the rack is stationary, the sequence of pre-gassing, filling, post-gassing, pre-heating, and final sealing is performed.
What production capacities are available?
Two models are offered:
- ATFM-S (single filling head) – up to 30 tubes per minute
- ATFM-D (double filling heads) – up to 50 tubes per minute
Both models have eight filling stations.
What fill volumes and tube size ranges does the machine support?
Fill volume ranges from 5 ml to 100 ml (ATFM-S) or 5 ml to 50 ml (ATFM-D) using interchangeable syringes and cups. Compatible tube diameters are 12 mm to 25 mm and lengths are 50 mm to 200 mm.
What are the key design features that improve cleaning, maintenance, and changeover?
The machine is compact, offers full accessibility, has a large bottom opening for thorough cleaning, includes a pre-warming station, and features a pendant-type electrical control panel mounted away from the machine for operator convenience and safety. Changeover time is minimal and routine maintenance is straightforward.
What are the approximate power requirements, dimensions, and weights of the machines?
Both models operate on 440 V, 3-phase, 50 Hz, four-wire supply (voltage can be adjusted to local requirements).
- ATFM-S: 1.5 HP, approx. 1200 × 800 × 1800 mm, net weight ~350 kg
- ATFM-D: 3 HP, approx. 1350 × 950 × 1800 mm, net weight ~450 kg
