ZONESUN ZS-AFC48B Automatic Round Tube Gear Pump Filling and Capping Machine
The ZONESUN ZS-AFC48B automatic gear pump filling and capping machine integrates automatic feeding of compatible round bottles and tube-shaped containers, liquid filling, cap feeding, cap placement and servo capping into one compact process. Its servo-controlled gear pump supports adjustable filling from 3 mL, with a specified filling accuracy of ±1%. Production capacity is 15–30 bottles per minute, depending on filling volume and material.
Horizontal bottle feeding, customized bottle holders, vibratory cap feeding, servo three-jaw capping and touchscreen control support continuous operation. The listed container diameter is Φ15–50 mm and height is 50–250 mm, with customizable configurations available. A heated constant-temperature hopper can be supplied as a custom option when temperature maintenance is required.

Provide samples to confirm the filling and capping configuration for your application.
Machine Details
Touchscreen Control Panel
Allows operators to set filling, capping and operating parameters while monitoring machine status.
Servo Gear Pump Filling System
Servo-controlled gear pump filling provides precise control of filling volume and speed for consistent filling of viscous liquids.
Automatic Cap Placement System
Automatically guides and places caps onto bottles before capping for continuous operation. The cap handling structure can be customized for different cap sizes.
Servo Capping System
Servo-controlled capping provides adjustable torque for consistent and secure cap tightening.
Stainless Steel Product Hopper
Stores and continuously supplies liquid to the gear pump filling system during production.
Automatic Bottle Feeding System
Feeds bottles horizontally into moving bottle holders, where they are securely positioned and automatically turned upright during conveying for subsequent filling and capping.
Customizable Bottle Holders
Securely position bottles during filling and capping, with customized holders available for different bottle sizes and shapes.
Vibratory Cap Feeding System
Automatically sorts and orients bulk caps, then continuously feeds them to the cap placement station.
Key Features
- Integrated container feeding, gear pump filling, cap placement and servo capping
- Horizontal bottle feeding with holders that turn containers upright during conveying
- Servo gear pump control of filling volume and speed
- Vibratory cap sorting and feeding for continuous cap placement
- Servo three-jaw capping with adjustable torque
- Custom bottle holders and cap handling for the selected container format
- Optional custom heated constant-temperature hopper
How the Filling and Capping Process Works
- Load compatible containers into the horizontal feeding system and caps into the vibratory feeder.
- The feeding system transfers containers into moving holders and turns them upright during conveying.
- The servo-controlled gear pump dispenses the configured liquid volume.
- The vibratory feeder sorts and orients caps, and the placement system guides them onto the containers.
- The servo three-jaw capping system tightens the caps at the selected torque setting.
- Check test samples for filling volume and closure quality before continuous production, following the operating manual.
How to Choose the Right Configuration
Provide the liquid name, viscosity or a sample, filling temperature, target volume, container diameter and height, neck dimensions, cap type and cap dimensions. Also specify the required output, number of container formats and whether hopper temperature maintenance is needed. Confirm the pump configuration, holders, cap feeding and capping tooling against actual samples before ordering.
Frequently Asked Questions
What container sizes can the ZS-AFC48B handle?
The listed diameter range is Φ15–50 mm and height range is 50–250 mm, with customizable configurations available. Container shape and neck details should be checked with samples and the appropriate holders.
What is the filling volume range?
The stated filling volume starts from 3 mL and is adjustable. The upper volume limit is not specified in the current parameters; confirm your target volume and liquid with ZONESUN before selecting the configuration.
What filling speed and accuracy are specified?
The specified capacity is 15–30 bottles per minute, depending on filling volume and material, with a listed filling accuracy of ±1%. Confirm performance with the actual liquid, container and operating settings.
How are the containers and caps fed?
Containers are fed horizontally into moving holders and turned upright during conveying. A vibratory feeder sorts and orients caps for automatic placement, followed by servo three-jaw capping.
Is a heated hopper included as standard?
A heated constant-temperature hopper is described as a custom option. Discuss the required holding temperature and liquid properties, and confirm the heating configuration in the quotation.
Can it be customized for different containers and caps?
Customized bottle holders and cap handling structures are available. Provide container and cap samples to assess the required tooling and changeover arrangements. The listed utilities are 220 V, 50 Hz, 3 kW power and 0.6–0.7 MPa compressed air.
