Filling with a hose, without compressed air - practical for small businesses
Anyone dealing with commercial filling machines for the first time quickly comes up against a silent prerequisite: as soon as things become more professional and automated, many systems require a compressed air connection. Pneumatic dosing valves, automatic filling heads or conveyor systems – the more powerful the system, the more often compressed air is part of the infrastructure.
Fillogy® is one of the manufacturers who solve this differently. And there are practical reasons for this.
The compressed air problem that is rarely addressed openly
Compressed air is a matter of course in industry. For small businesses, manufacturers, farm stores, direct marketers or cosmetics producers, the reality is often different: A compressor costs money to buy, consumes energy constantly, generates noise and needs to be maintained. And not every production room – farm kitchen, outbuilding, converted utility room – can be easily retrofitted.
This means that a filling machine that requires compressed air is not really an option for a significant proportion of small producers, regardless of the price of the machine itself.
The Fillogy® approach: gear pump and silicone hose
Fillogy® works with a gear pump head that pumps the product directly into the container via a silicone hose. No pneumatic valve, no compressed air pulse, no compressor in the background. The only connection Fillogy® needs is a standard 230 V socket. This is not a simplification, it is a conscious design decision with concrete advantages for everyday operation:
No infrastructure except electricity. Fillogy® can be installed wherever there is a power socket – in the farm kitchen, in the production room, in the outbuilding.
No running compressor operation. No additional energy consumption, no background noise, no maintenance intervals for compressed air technology.
Gentle product handling. Gentle product conveying. The gear pump head conveys the product evenly and in a controlled manner – directly into the container via the silicone tube. Suitable for free-flowing to pasty products, from oil to sauces and creams.
Who benefits from this
This concept is aimed at businesses that want to bottle professionally but do not have an industrial infrastructure and do not want to build one. Direct marketers with seasonal products. Manufactories that fill several products with one machine. Founders who want to get into machine bottling with manageable costs.
Fillogy® was developed by a small team for precisely these companies – from practice, for practice. The absence of compressed air is not a technical concession, but part of the basic concept: a machine that works where other systems simply cannot be installed.
