Best-in-class equipment provides the maximum return on your investment and increased levels of production.
If accuracy and flexibility are important to your liquid manufacturing process, then consider selecting equipment from a company that specializes in designing fillers versus a company that specializes in other aerosol manufacturing processes (crimping, gassing, etc).
For aerosol applications with high production speeds, Pacific’s timed-orifice rotary filling machine provides the flexibility to accommodate a wide range of product viscosities and container sizes. The flexibility in Pacific’s rotary liquid filler is a result of our Variable Rate of Product Flow system that is standard on our timed-orifice arrangement. As with every Pacific filler, we do not comprise accuracy which is critical for aerosol products that are typically quite expensive. In most cases, the accuracy savings alone over your current filling system will justify the project return on investment.
If your high-speed application does not include a wide viscosity range and accuracy is the most critical requirement, our flow meter filling machine is a proven solution with excellent performance. Note that while the flow meter-based systems are extremely accurate, they cannot be arranged with our Variable Rate of Flow system. Our flow meter-based systems, therefore, do not offer the same price performance per station that comes with the timed-orifice solution.
For slower speed requirements, we also provide inline machines that utilize volumetric pump or flow meter filling technology.
Our patented top fill nozzles with displacement style automatic shutoff valve or diving nozzle with Laminar flow screen at the point of discharge provide accuracy and good production capacity on non-foamy liquids. Many of our customers also want to fill foamy products such as windshield washer fluid and diesel additives on the same filling machine. If this is a requirement or future requirement, we can instead arrange the filling system with our bottom-up fill, positive shutoff nozzles. The bottom-up fill nozzle arrangement offers increased production on fewer stations compared to competing fillers.
For applications where zero drip is required, we incorporate a nozzle-based vacuum system into both our top fill and bottom-up fill nozzles.
All of our filling systems are constructed from 304SS. Options include 316 stainless steel filling systems and arrangements for hazardous explosion-proof environments. The filling machine is designed for Clean-in-Place washing and requires minimal maintenance.

Light to Semi-Viscous Fillers for Home Cleaners, Soaps, Sanitizers and more
Foamy glass cleaners, stringy dishwashing soap and thick hand sanitizers are all examples of the range of products many home care manufacturers need to schedule on a single filler.
Not a simple task for an off-the-shelf liquid filler but with a Pacific, you will maximize production line time, quality and overall efficiency.
Home care manufacturers with higher production speeds select Pacific’s timed-orifice rotary filling machine for its proven flexibility to accommodate a wide range of product viscosities and container sizes. The flexibility in Pacific’s rotary liquid filler is a result of our Variable Rate of Product Flow system that is standard on our timed-orifice arrangement.
Most home care products have very tight profit margins that require customers to maximize their line efficiency. As with every Pacific filler, we do not comprise accuracy, reliability or quality which is your maximum return on investment.
If your high-speed application does not include a wide viscosity range and accuracy is the most critical requirement, our flow meter filling machine is a proven solution with excellent performance. Note that while the flow meter-based systems are extremely accurate, they cannot be arranged with our Variable Rate of Flow system. Our flow meter-based systems, therefore, do not offer the same price performance per station that comes with the timed-orifice solution.
For slower speed requirements, we also provide inline and drum filling machines that utilize volumetric or flow meter filling technology.
Our patented top fill nozzles with displacement style automatic shutoff valves provide accuracy and good production capacity on non-foamy liquids. Many of our customers also want to fill foamy products such as Windex or Pine-Sol on the same filling machine. If this is a requirement or future requirement, we can instead arrange the filling system with our bottom-up fill, positive shutoff nozzles. The bottom-up fill nozzle arrangement offers increased production on fewer stations compared to competing fillers.
For applications where zero drip is required, we incorporate a nozzle-based vacuum system into both our top fill and bottom-up fill nozzles.
All of our filling systems are constructed from 304SS with 316SS options available. The filling machine is designed for Clean-in-Place washing and requires minimal maintenance.

Fillers for Paint and other abrasive home care products
Paint processes have many unique characteristics that require specialized equipment to ensure optimal line efficiency. In order to successfully fill paint, the equipment must be able to withstand abrasiveness, deal with a fast-drying product that drips easily, be quick and easy to clean to ensure the colors are maintained, and fill accurately to ensure the color mixing process is consistent.
For manufacturers with higher production speeds, Pacific’s mass flow meter filling machine is a proven solution with excellent performance that addresses each of the paint requirements discussed above.
For slower speed requirements, we also provide inline and pail filling machines that utilize mass flow meter filling technology. Our patented top-fill nozzles with mechanical seals provide accuracy and drip control.
All of our filling systems are constructed from 304SS with optional 316 stainless steel. The filling machine is designed for Clean-in-Place washing and requires minimal maintenance.

Viscous Fillers for Spackle, Silicone, Caulk and more
Viscous home care products are some of the most difficult products to fill. With the right filling system, however, accurately filling caulk or silicone can be quite simple.
Where higher production speeds are required, Pacific’s timed-orifice viscous rotary filler is the ideal solution. The proven design originated when the company was founded in 1962. Today it remains our most simple yet accurate filling system.
The keys to filling viscous products are (1) being able to move the product easily with consistency, (2) being able to maintain a low-pressure operation throughout the filling system, and (3) placing the product into the jar without aeration pockets.
Pacific solves these design challenges by integrating a positive displacement pump that operates at a constant speed with our rotary timed orifice. The timed-orifice manifold is custom-designed to maintain low pressure flows to our bottom-up fill nozzles. The nozzle technology is also custom-designed for special flow rates in conjunction with the camming system that guarantees the container is always in proper position relative to the product flow.
Versatile and flexible, Pacific’s viscous fillers are customized to accommodate a wide range of filling systems designed to accurately fill various container sizes, across a range of speeds, with minimal changeover time.
For slower speed requirements, we also provide inline and drum filling machines that utilize volumetric pumps or flow meter filling technology.
Regardless of whether an inline or rotary filler is best for your production speeds, we arrange the filling machine with our bottom-up fill open flow nozzles. Our viscous fillers do not require a supply tank and the pump can be directly fed from your supply system. Special bypass and load balancing systems are incorporated into each pump to facilitate constant flow.
All of our viscous home care filling systems are constructed from 304SS materials. All stainless steel construction is a standard.
