ADVANTAGES OF AUTOMATED FILL & DISPENSE SYSTEMS

The automation equipment experts at Intec offer systems for various filling and dispensing operations, including: 

  • Fluid dispensing systems for reagent testing (e.g., COVID-19 PCR tests), drug dispensing (e.g., test tube filling), and vaccine dispensing (e.g., vial filling)
  • Adhesive dispensing systems for depositing two-part epoxies and UV-cured adhesives
  • Powder loading and filling systems for ultra-precision and anti-static operations
  • Product-to-box/bag filling systems for packaging applications
  • Ball bearing dispensing systems for quickly and repeatedly dispensing ball bearings

Regardless of the type of system or intended application, all of our solutions are built for superior performance. We carefully design and build them to help companies streamline their operations, which can lead to many benefits, such as: 

  • Increased precision, accuracy, and quality: Automated fill and dispense systems eliminate the risk of operator error. They also can be manufactured to deliver consistent volumes at high production volumes and low cost.
  • Improved productivity: An automated system can work at a faster pace with more uptime hours.
  • Reduced risk of contamination: Automated systems minimize the chance of product contaminations, making them ideal for use in cleanroom environments and other highly sensitive operations (e.g., drug, reagent, or vaccine dispensing and testing)

 

APPLICATIONS OF AUTOMATED FILL & DISPENSE SYSTEMS

Businesses across a wide range of industries utilize automated fill and dispense systems in their operations. Some of the industries that regularly use the equipment include: 

MEDICAL

In the medical industry, automated fill and dispense systems can be employed for drug compounding, pharmaceutical product packaging, capping and labeling, prescription dispensing, and product storage and retrieval operations. Implementing them properly can increase medication adherence, reduce medication errors, and improve filling/dispensing efficiency.

LIFE SCIENCES

Automated fill and dispense systems are often utilized in testing operations within the life sciences industry. They can add specific amounts of compounds (e.g., drugs, reagents, vaccines, etc.) to test tubes, resulting in more accurate and precise results. The technology has proved extremely useful in PCR testing applications throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, where it is reliably employed in cold and cryo environments.

HI-TECH

Companies across the industrial and commercial sectors have turned to automated fill and dispense systems as a high-tech solution to improve workflows and increase safety/quality.

AUTOMOTIVE

In the automotive industry, automated fill and dispense systems are used to apply numerous compounds, including adhesives, coatings, oils, and sealants, during manufacturing and assembly operations. They help businesses reduce waste, ensure quality, and improve productivity. Some systems have specialized components that offer advanced features (e.g., UV sensors for detecting dyes) to ensure proper application.

FOOD & BEVERAGE

Food and beverage production companies often integrate automated fill and dispense systems into factory lines to facilitate product portioning operations. The systems ensure proper distribution of ingredients and reduce the risk of human contamination.

DOOR & WINDOW MFG

In most cases, doors and windows must be strong, durable, and attractive. That’s why many door and window manufacturers use automated adhesive dispensing systems and automated sealant dispensing systems, which ensures strength and quality of the finished product.

PACKAGING

The packaging industry employs automated fill and dispense systems for various operations. The equipment can be used for dispensing product, sealing and labeling packaging, adding barcodes, lot tracing info, and more.

CONSUMER PRODUCTS

Automated fill and dispense systems are used to create a variety of consumer products. Examples include appliances, automobiles, cleaning solutions, beauty products, food, and prescription medication.
