Filling systems for petrochemical products
Robust filling processes for demanding production environments
A wide range of liquid products are processed and filled in the petrochemical industry, including industrial oils, lubricants, solvents, additives, and other petrochemical intermediates and finished products. Depending on the product properties, container type, and production environment, specific requirements may apply to safe handling, process reliability, system availability, and occupational safety.
In day-to-day production, filling processes must operate reliably, safely, and robustly – even when products, fill volumes, or industrial containers vary. FRICKE develops filling systems for petrochemical liquids that are tailored to product characteristics, containers, fill volumes, the production environment, safety requirements, and the desired level of automation.
Typical requirements in the petrochemical industry
- Precise filling of petrochemical liquids
- Safe handling to protect personnel and the production environment
- Robust system concepts for industrial applications
- Reliable processes across different products and batches
- Flexible solutions for different containers and fill volumes
- Integration into existing production and packaging processes
FRICKE solutions for petrochemical products
The focus is on the safe and precise filling of liquid petrochemical products. When designing systems, FRICKE takes into account product behavior, the intended containers and fill volumes, the production environment, safety requirements, and the desired level of automation.
This results in customized system designs—ranging from robust single-station solutions to automated filling lines—that can be integrated into existing production and packaging processes.
