Asria Dairies, based at Amman in Jordan, has purchased a BWI Dawson 9/3 Compact level filler and capper machine. The new machine can handle 0.25, 0.5, one and two litre polybottles at speeds of up to 55 units per minute.
The 9/3 incorporates nine filling heads and three capping heads on an integral screw capping machine. Measuring 1,150 x 1,500 x 2,300mm, it is the smallest of the three models in the Compact range. It is designed to meet the requirements of smaller and low capacity dairies.
At Asria Dairies, the unit has been incorporated into a filling line for lightweight containers of milk, fruit juice and laban.
