All Colby Fillers feature integrated control systems which continuously monitor and adjust the performance of the system.

On multi-head machines, PLC controls adjust each head to compensate for any changes in the bulk density of the powder supply and to eliminate any head-to-head variations. This fully automatic process ensures maximum accuracy at all times. Our user-friendly controls also enable easy product changeover.

By simply calling up each product and can size, the entire system sets itself to achieve optimum performance. Graphical displays provide real-time information on production, efficiency, average weight and a host of other critical issues.

This enables easy, effective operator control. The control system can be linked to other computer systems to transfer management information if desired.

Colby filler controls are designed to optimise performance in both “nothing under” and average weight markets.


Sophisticated controls monitor and adjust both filler and line performance
