Chapter 1 Overview
1-1 Overview
The SGY series fully pneumatic filling machines are newly designed for liquid, paste,
and cream filling, and its filling amount can be adjusted as required based on the
specified range, featuring high stability, reliability and filling accuracy.
1-2 Features
1. All surface materials of this machine are crafted of 316 stainless steel, which features
high acid-resistance and corrosion-resistance properties, as well as presenting a
high quality finish.
2. You can operate it safely and easily and adjusting the filling amount can be performed
within the range as required with high accuracy.
3. Its reasonable layout enables you to easily disassemble, safely operate, and easily
clean the filler.
4. Due to a total lack of electrical components, this filler can be used safely in a wide
array of hazardous or moist environments.

1-4 Working Principle
The cylinder runs in reciprocating and linear manners to drive the piston and generate
suction and thrust so as to draw and push your product.

1-5 Working Process
Open the inlet valve, adjust the working air pressure and select the working status
(automatic or semiautomatic). During the operation, the rotary cylinder linkage is turned
(opens a path towards the frontwhile sealing towards the top), the fillhead cylinder moves
upwards to open the discharge valve, the piston cylinder actuates to move the piston
forward, which dispenses material for filling ( the speed can be adjusted by the “Behind”
valve); after that, the fill head cylinder moves downwards to close the discharge valve to
prevent dripping, the rotary cylinder linkage returns (seals towards the front while opening
a path towards the top), the piston cylinder actuates to move the piston rearward, which
pulls new product into the chamber for the next filling (speed can be adjusted by the
“Front” valve). Thus the operation is accomplished.
1-6 Available Range
It is ideal for special industries such as food, daily chemistry, pesticide and medication.

Chapter 2 Operation Instruction
2-1 Preparation
1. Precautions
(1) The inlet air pressure should be 0.5-0.8Mpa and the working air pressure should
be 0.4-0.5 Mpa.
(2) Keep all appendages clear of moving parts during operation.
2. Filling amount troubleshooting
Adjust the filling amount as follows:
(1) Put materials to be filled into the container.
(2) Prepare measuring cup or scale to identify quantities desired.
(3) Turn the hand wheel to adjust the variable sensor to desired range.
(4) Check to ensure that the operation switch is set to Semiautomatic, use the foot
pedal to control the cycle, measure the obtained product to see whether it is in
the desired quantity. If not, proceed by the following:
A Loosen the locking handle on the adjustable sensor.
B Turn the hand wheel clockwise or counterclockwise.
C Repeat step 4, using a measuring cup or bottle to measure the materials and
adjust the handwheel until the obtained result is within the desired range.
D Tighten the locking handle on the adjustment sensor to avoid parts shifting and
influencing the filling accuracy.

2-2 Operation Method
(1) Connect the air source and slide the air inlet collar toward the machine.
(2) Check whether the air pressure meter is in the specified range (roughly reading
in the “12-3 o’clock” range). If not, draw the air pressure knob outwards to unlock,
rotate the pressure regulator until the pressure is in the specified range
(0.40.5Mpa) and push the knob back in to lock.
(3) Use the Auto/Semiauto switch to set the filler to the desired operation method.
(4) To make an adjustment, you can loosen the locking handle on the adjustment
sensor, rotate the handwheel, take note of the value on the position display and
fasten the handle.
(5) Adjust the front valve (for adjusting drawing speed) and behind valve (for
adjusting filling speed) as shown in Figure 1 to get reasonable drawing and filling
speed.
Figure 1 to get reasonable drawing and filling speed.
(6) Fill the container with product and prepare the container to be filled.
(7) Proceed with filling and control the operation with the foot pedal. Step on the foot
pedal once to finish each filling operation. You can adjust and use the Automatic
function if you are proficient enough to keep up with the filling speed.

2-3 Fault Analysis and Troubleshooting
Symptom
Analysis
Troubleshooting
The machine
fails
Check whether the air pressure collar is open
Open it
Check whether the air source is open
(compressor)
Open it
Check whether the value on air pressure meter is
within the correct range
Adjust it to 0.4-0.5MPa
Check whether there is leakage on the pipe joint or damage
on air lines
Insert the pipe again or change
another one
Check whether the air amount is adjusted to the
minimum (tightened too much) via the front valve
and behind valve
Adjust the valves to the working
status
Check whether the air amount on the fill head
cylinder is adjusted to the minimum (tightened too
far)
Adjust the throttle to the working
status
Check cleanliness of the machine. Product may
be hardened, tacky, or sticky, causing rotary
assemble or main piston to be stuck
Clean the machine
Filling is not
even
Check for air leakage in all air line connections.
Fasten each joint
Check for leakage in the product chamber
Replace o-rings
Check product level inside hopper
Add product
Check for correct speeds during filling and
drawing actions
Adjust the front valve and
behind valve to the stable status
Check whether the material viscosity is even
Make materials be even

2-4 Safety Instruction
1. You can use soap and warm water to clean the machine. Fill hopper with cleaning agent
and water; cycle until discharge is clear of any product; fill hopper with clean water and
cycle until water is clear.
2. Never use sharp tools on any parts surface when cleaning the internal parts and install
the parts when they are dry.
3. Use lubricant for all moving parts.
4. Check the o-rings of all parts and replace damaged rings.
5. Check whether there is damage or leakage on the air lines.
6. Fasten screws of all parts.
7. Never clean the filler via harsh or abrasive cleaners to protect the machines integrity.
8. Never cycle the filler without a product.
9. Never put hard materials into the hopper.
10. Filler should be on a flat surface in a dry place with little dust and enough room for
movement during each filling cycle.
11. Use the machine in air-current environment when volatile liquid is to be filled.
12. Body or materials should be far away from moving parts and our factory takes no
responsibility for any machinery and human injury due to it.
13. Cut off the air source when repairing/replacing parts/cleaning.
14. Never use organic flux to clean the machine, such as gasoline, benzene, xylene, banana
oil and sodium hypochlorite.
