Viscous chemical products

Filling machines for paints, coatings, adhesives and viscous chemicals.

Paints, coatings, adhesives and sealants need attention to viscosity, product stringing, clean shut-off, container size, lid handling and changeover. The correct filler may differ from a standard low-viscosity liquid machine.

Specification

Viscosity changes the filling equipment.

High-viscosity liquids, pastes, coatings and adhesives can require different pump styles, nozzle shut-off, heated handling or piston/volumetric filling options. Product stringing and container presentation should be tested early.

Typical products

  • Paints and varnishes
  • Coatings and primers
  • Glues and adhesives
  • Sealants and gels
  • Industrial pastes and compounds

FAQ

Chemical filling machine questions

Can viscous adhesives be filled automatically?

Yes, if the product, container and output justify automation. Viscosity, stringing and cleaning requirements should be tested or discussed early.

Are paint fillers different from detergent fillers?

Usually. Paints and coatings often need different pumps, nozzles, closing methods and container handling compared with thin or foamy detergents.
