Industrial Chemical Drum & IBC Filling Stations

Equipment

Specialized Bottle Filling Stations for Precision Liquid Dosing

LOCUS ROBOTICS manufactures semi-automatic and automatic filling stations for precise transfer of hazardous and non-hazardous chemicals into:

  • Drums (200L) | Jerrycans (5-50L) | IBCs (1000L)

Our automatic stations ensure accuracy (±0.5%) and zero cross-contamination when handling:

  • Pharmaceuticals (syrups, tinctures)

  • Chemicals (solvents, acids in PP/PVDF models)

  • Cosmetics (serums, essential oils)

  • Food Grade (oils, vinegar, alcohol)

Key Differentiators:
✔ EX-Proof Configs – ATEX/IECEx for flammables (Zone 1/Zone 2)
✔ Material Options – 316L SS, PP, PTFE-lined for acids/alkalis
✔ Anti-Foaming Tech – Bottom-fill nozzles & defoaming systems


Station Types & Capabilities

1. Semi-Auto Stations (Operator-Assisted)

  • Process: Operator positions nozzle → Starts fill → Nozzle auto-retracts

  • Throughput: 10-15 drums/hour

  • Ideal For: Small-batch LFLs, corrosives

2. Fully Automatic Stations (Robotic)

  • Process: Auto-nozzle positioning → Multi-container sequencing

  • Throughput: 30-50 drums/hour

  • Ideal For: High-volume oils, solvents
