Lubricant Filling Technologies and Solutions
Maximum Precision and Speed with Midas Makina
Midas Makina offers top-standard solutions for filling products of varying viscosities and chemical compositions, such as engine oil, lubricating oil, grease, transmission oil, and antifreeze.
We use three main filling technologies in our lines, which are custom-designed according to your product type, packaging size, and target capacity:
Loadcell Filling Machines (Weight Controlled),
Flowmeter Filling Machines (Volumetric), and
Servo Piston Filling Machines (Volumetric).
Loadcell Filling Machines (Weight Controlled)
When to Use It?
Ideal for large packages and high-viscosity, foam-prone products.
Working Principle
The drum, barrel, or IBC is placed on the weighing platform.
The weight is continuously monitored during the filling process, and the filling is completed at the target value.
Advantages
- High Accuracy: ±0.2 – 0.6 kg
- Product Independence: Unaffected by density, temperature, or foaming
Application Areas
- 20–30 kg drums
- 200 L barrels
- 1000 L IBC filling
Typical Products
- High viscosity engine oils
- Greases
- Solvent-based chemicals
Flowmeter Filling Machines (Volumetric)
When Where is it used?
It is the fastest solution for medium and low viscosity, fluid products and high-capacity lines.
Working Principle
Product flow is measured with precise flowmeter sensors.
Thanks to volumetric adjustment, fast and repeatable filling is achieved.
Advantages
- High Speed: Excellent performance in small and medium packages
- Flexibility: Coriolis (high precision) or magnetic flowmeter option
Application Areas
- 0.5 L, 1 L, 4 L, 5 L and 20 L drums
Typical Products
- Fluid engine oils
- Antifreeze
- Low viscosity additive oils
Servo Piston Filling Machines (Volumetric)
When to Use It?
Wide Superior accuracy in the viscosity range, especially for greases and semi-fluid products.
Operating Principle
The servo motor-controlled piston transfers the product from the cylinder to the container in a set volume.
Advantages
- Wide Viscosity Range: From aqueous products to paste consistency
- Maximum Repeatability: High precision with servo control
Application Areas
- Small containers of 0.25 L – 5 L
Typical Products
- Grease
- Additive oils
- Industrial special fluids
Filling Line Complementary Units
- Cover Closing: Servo torque controlled Pick & Place or rotary closing systems
- Labeling: Double-sided or full wrap labeling, Herma brand solutions
- Safety: Closed cabinet design, CE certified switches, optional ATEX compliance
