Product Introduction: Dual-Purpose Drum & IBC Filling System
Precision Filling for Industrial Containers with Zero Spillage
Shanghai Guangzhi Automation’s Drum & IBC Filling Machine delivers end-to-end automation for 55-gallon drums (200L) and 1,000L IBC totes with ±0.1% gravimetric accuracy. Integrating AI-controlled flow management and robotic container handling, it achieves 40 drums/hour or 15 IBCs/hour throughput while eliminating manual labor – engineered for chemicals, food-grade liquids, and hazardous materials requiring UN-certified containment.
