Complete automation solutions are our forté.
We are also equipped to assess, design and manufacture
specialized automation equipment.
Tigre Solutions has specialised automation experience in
liquid packaging and product handling.
We assess and design liquid filling equipment, as well as all
the relative auxiliary equipment, enabling us to offer
complete automated line solutions.
Tigre Solutions are capable of manufacturing a wide range
of machinery to suit almost any product and container
styles. All machinery is designed on a powerful 3D rendering
software package, which offers you the opportunity to
visualise the exact appearance of your machine prior to
manufacture. It also gives us an extreme advantage to
ensuring that all components and functionality of the
equipment is above industry standards and the equipment
performs well above your expectations.

Rotary Filler Machine
A mono-block is a filling, capping and rinsing (optional)
solution in a single machine with 1 common drive.
The rotary design of the machine enables the bottles to
constantly move through the sections,
thus saving time and increasing production speed.

Complete 304 stainless steel construction, with fully welded and polished deck, creating a hygienic and
easily cleanable deck surface. Deck is equipped with a gutter system which contains any product spillage
and wash-downs, ensuring cleanliness of the machine work area. Deck has a radius shape to ensure any
spillages run towards the gutters.
316L Stainless steel used in product path.
Header tank with electronic automatic level control. Header tank is fully adjustable to set filling height.
Equipped with two pneumatic actuator valves, one used for the product inlet, the second used for CIP. CIP
line runs to a rotary spray ball for superior cleaning capabilities. Optional - *** Header tank adjustment
done electronically via touch screen panel***
Integrated CIP wash / rinse system.
Level filling nozzle system using food grade silicone bellows, easy and affordable to maintain and keep
clean. Stainless steel components manufactured from 316 grade, and welds polished to meet highest hygiene
standards. Mechanical nozzles with Teflon seals available for chemical applications.
Fully adjustable capping turret. Capping turret operates on a pick and place system. Control sensors ensure
a “no bottle no cap” *** Optional - Capper turret adjusted electronically via HMI touch screen***
Fully adjustable magnetic clutches for final torque on the cap. Magnetic clutch system ensures a smooth
operation of torqueing the cap to the bottle. Adjustment allows the final required torque to be set.
Passive chuck with spring loaded gripping tips or mechanically actuated chucks, to collect the cap, while
ensuring the cap is collected from the pick & place system, perfectly straight and without damage.
Cap ejection pins installed into the spindles. This is a fail-safe system to eject any caps from the chuck
should the cap not be applied for any reason. This ensures that the chuck is always free of any caps before
collecting caps from the pick and place area.
Final drive via high powered motor and gearbox, and oil filled nylon gearing system, ensuring a smooth,
quiet vibration free operation of machine turrets.
Delta PLC controlled.
Delta HMI touch screen, all settings adjustable via the touch screen. Recipe function with 10 Recipes for
easy change over. On-screen active help function.
Line control sensors to ensure machine auto starts/stops when exit conveyor is full, no caps in the cap chute
and no product in the tank scenarios.
Specifications
Basic machine operation:
Bottles are placed onto the in-feed conveyor.
The bottles are fed into the in-feed star-wheel.
The bottles then enter the rinsing turret where they
are orientated upside down (if Rinser is opted for)
A high-pressure jet of water is injected into the bottle
to rinse the bottle internally.
The bottle is then passed to the filling turret where
they are filled using a level filling system.
Once the bottles are filled they are passed to the
capper turret via an intermediate star-wheel.
The capping turret collects a cap from the cap pick
and place system.
The capping heads come onto the bottle tightening
the cap onto the bottle.
The bottles are placed onto the exit conveyor by the
exit star-wheel.

Self-Adhesive
Labelling Machine Lab
elli
ng
We manufacture a fully automatic labeller to label your
containers. The labeller will apply a self-adhesive label
onto your container. The labels can be single-sided,
double-sided or wrap-around (or all three types on one
machine).
Bottles are placed onto the conveyor.
A set of in-feed spacer belts ensure the bottles are
spaced evenly for the label applicator.
As the bottle passes the beak of the label
applicator, the label applicator dispenses a
label.
As the label is being dispensed, the bottle is held down by an overhead belt to prevent movement, the label is applied firmly by a
brush onto the bottle.
The now labelled bottle exits onto the conveyor.
Variations of the Self-Adhesive Labeller:
Bottles per Minute:
Eco Self-Adhesive Labeller 35 (dependent on label length)

Product detection sensor to activate label applicator as product is present
Self-teaching high accuracy label stop sensor. The self-teaching functionality is useful when label suppliers change the colour of the
label web, which normally results in a setup issue. With the self-teaching label stop sensor, this error is completely eliminated. The label stop sensor can sense any type of label and colour
PLC controlled system, combined with a HMI for easy setup labelling parameters
Recipe function on HMI ensures simple and efficient product change overs, all setting saved on the memory
Line control sensor: If there is a backup on the exit of the labeller, the in-feed belts will stop, not allowing any more bottles to enter the system, once back-up is cleared, the in-feed belts auto start.
