200L Drum & IBC Fully Automatic Robotic Filling Line

The GLZON 200L Drum & IBC Fully Automatic Robotic Filling Line is designed for automatic filling of 200L drums and IBC containers.

The system combines machine vision, automatic positioning, controlled filling, and downstream handling. As a result, it can reduce manual work and improve production efficiency.

The line can also be customized for different containers, materials, and production requirements.

Smart Filling for Drums and IBCs

This filling line uses machine vision to find the filling opening of each container.

First, the system identifies the container format. Next, it positions the filling equipment. Then, the filling process starts automatically.

This makes the system suitable for selected drum and IBC formats.

In addition, the filling area can include several safety and control options, such as:

• Anti-drip filling
• Leak control
• Drainage control
• Exhaust management
• Grounding detection
• Safety interlocks
• Explosion-resistant options

The final configuration depends on the product and working environment.

How the Filling Line Works

1. Container Infeed

200L drums or IBC containers enter the conveyor system.

2. Container Recognition

The system identifies the selected container type and format.

3. Vision Positioning

Machine vision detects the filling opening and guides the filling equipment into position.

4. Automatic Filling

The system fills the container according to the configured filling process.

Anti-drip functions can also help keep the filling area cleaner.

5. Safety Monitoring

Grounding detection and safety interlocks can be added when required.

6. Downstream Handling

After filling, containers move to the next process.

This may include conveying, weighing, lid handling, or pallet handling.

Main Features

Multi-Mode Recognition

The system can recognize selected drum and IBC formats.

Therefore, production changeovers can be easier when compatible containers are used.

Vision-Guided Positioning

Machine vision helps locate the container filling port.

This supports accurate filling equipment positioning.

Automatic Filling Process

The filling, positioning, and container movement can work together as one automated system.

Therefore, operators need less manual handling.

Isolated Filling Area

The filling station can use a separated working area.

This helps support cleaner and safer material handling.

Leak and Exhaust Control

The system can include drainage, exhaust control, and anti-drip functions.

These options depend on the product being filled.

Integrated Safety Functions

Safety options can include:

• Grounding detection
• Safety interlocks
• Protective controls
• Explosion-resistant configurations

These functions are selected according to project requirements.

Stable Multi-Station Operation

Several stations can work together in one production line.

The referenced configuration supports a filling speed of up to 30 containers per hour.

However, actual output depends on the product, filling volume, and container type.

Customized Filling Line Configuration

Every customer has different production requirements.

For this reason, GLZON can configure the filling line according to the actual project.

We normally confirm the following information before designing the system:

• Material properties
• Container size
• Filling opening size
• Filling opening position
• Filling volume
• Required production capacity
• Safety requirements
• Lid handling method
• Downstream process

This information helps us recommend a suitable filling solution.

Complete Automatic Filling Solution

The robotic filling machine can work with other equipment in the production line.

For example, the system can include:

• Drum or IBC conveyors
• Automatic container positioning
• Robotic filling
• Weighing systems
• Safety monitoring
• Lid handling
• Downstream conveyors
• Pallet handling

Therefore, GLZON can design the system around your existing production process.

FAQ

What containers can this filling line handle?

The system is designed for compatible 200L drums and IBC containers. Final compatibility depends on the container dimensions and filling opening.

Does the machine use automatic positioning?

Yes. The system uses machine vision to locate the filling opening and guide the filling equipment.

What is the production speed?

The referenced configuration can reach up to 30 containers per hour.

However, actual speed depends on the material, filling volume, and line configuration.

Can the machine handle different container formats?

Yes. Selected drum and IBC formats can be supported through multi-mode recognition.

Can safety systems be added?

Yes. Grounding detection, safety interlocks, leak control, exhaust management, and explosion-resistant options can be configured when required.

Can GLZON provide a complete production line?

Yes. The filling system can be combined with conveying, weighing, lid handling, and other downstream equipment.
