MATEER 1800 Semi-Automatic Filler

About this machine

About this technology

The Mateer 1800 filler uses the ideal filling head for hand-filling of containers and pre-made bags, as well as vertical Form/Fill/Seal machines. Mateer 1800 fillers accurately fill a wide variety of products, including free-flow powders and granules and non-free-flow powders, creams, pastes, and slurries.  Made from a one-piece casting with pressed bearings, the 1800 filler head uses a heavy duty design that is more durable than a formed head. 
 
Engineered to the specifications of your unique project, a Mateer will be accurate to +/- 1.5%, which can be engineered to even greater precision with product testing.  Built from food-grade stainless steel, Mateers are easy to operate, easy to maintain, and dependable.  They are a mainstay of the Food, Beverage, Home and Personal Care, Pharmaceutical, and Chemical industries, and are suitable for virtually any production line that requires a dry filler.   

Our Mateer dry fillers are engineered for an expected service life of 25 years, and we proudly still supply parts for active filling machines installed more than 60 years ago.

Product Details
  • Fills up to 25 Containers Per Minute (CPM) 
  • Large capacity hopper, ideal for large dry-product filling. 
  • Operates up to a 5” auger 
  • A belt-driven rear-mounted Servo motor provides more torque than a direct drive motor, delivering greater power. 
  • Industry-standard PLC and HMI controls, readily supportable by PSA's Customer Support team or local Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) suppliers. Programming is included in the installation of any Mateer filling machine.  
  • Tool-free product changeover can be done in as little as 10 minutes,* minimizing equipment down-time. 
  • Auger height adjustment is outside of the product area and can be accomplished in seconds without disrupting production.  This separation prevents workers from placing their hands inside the hopper, reducing the possibility of product contamination and increasing operator safety.  
  • BW Filling & Closing strictly adheres to Food Grade Certification General Accepted Practices, using only food-grade stainless steel in our equipment designs.  Every weld is polished smooth, eliminating crevices or burrs on which bacteria can grow.  Mateer fillers can be upgraded to comply with 3-A Sanitary Standards certification, which affirms the integrity of hygienic processing equipment and systems. 
  • Mateer fillers are designed for operator safety, and include polycarbonate guards, hands-free height adjustments, interlocking access doors 
  • Comes with a comprehensive manual that includes everything needed to keep your Mateer running smoothly.  Manuals include illustrations, how-to information on set up, changeovers and repairs; service and lubrication schedules, best-practice and safety tips.  Manuals are available in print or digitally in multiple languages, making this critical information easy to share with your entire team.
