Filling systems for liquid food products
Precise and clean processes for liquid products
The food industry processes and fills a wide range of liquid products, including food ingredients, concentrates, flavorings, oils, and other liquid food products. Depending on the product, viscosity, flow behavior, foaming, temperature sensitivity, and product-handling requirements can vary significantly.
In day-to-day production, filling processes must operate reliably and cleanly while handling products gently – even when products, batches, fill volumes, or containers change. FRICKE develops filling systems for liquid products in the food industry, tailored to product behavior, containers, fill volumes, the production environment, and the required process workflows.
Typical requirements in the food industry
- Precise filling of liquid food products
- Clean processes for consistent product quality
- Gentle handling of different liquids
- Flexible system concepts for different containers and fill volumes
- Reliable processes for changing products or batches
- Integration into existing production and packaging processes
FRICKE solutions for liquid food products
The focus is on the precise and clean filling of liquid food products. When designing systems, FRICKE takes into account product behavior, the intended containers and fill volumes, the production environment, and the desired level of automation.
This results in customized system concepts—ranging from flexible single-station solutions to automated filling lines—that can be integrated into existing production and packaging processes.
For applications involving flammable products, such as alcohol-containing liquids or flavorings, FRICKE filling systems can also be designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in accordance with ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU.
