Abstract: A cartridge fluid filling system and method for the cannabis and hemp industry. The system comprises a gas-pressurized sanitary reservoir sub-assembly holding material to be dispensed. A spool valve sub-assembly lies in fluid communication with the reservoir sub-assembly and has a spool valve that moves to permit or block fluid flow to a metering rod. Effluent material may pass through an outlet port to a tray sub-assembly for locating cartridges into which metered amounts of the effluent material may be delivered. A robot moves a tray and the outlet port so that material is delivered in precisely metered amounts to cartridges in the tray without waste and in the absence of air bubbles. A human-machine interface includes controllers that supervise related process parameters.

Abstract: The present disclosure recites a method for time controlled carrying out of a filling process including steps of beginning a first flow measurement before or during the start of a filling of a first container, starting the filling of the first container at a first point in time, and ending the filling of the first container at a second point in time, wherein the second point in time is predetermined by a set, first time interval. The starting and ending steps are repeated for filling a second container. The method also includes ending the first flow measurement and ascertaining a total flow of the preceding fillings, comparing an actual value ascertained from the total flow a predetermined, desired value, and-adapting the first time interval based on the comparing step. An apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a control setup for time controlled fill amount control and a flowmeter.

Abstract: Provided are a method and an apparatus for extruding into a tube and filling the tube at a high speed and simultaneously sealing the tube. Specifically provided is a method for producing a polymer tube, containing a liquid therein and being sealed at constant intervals, the method including an extrusion step of continuously melt-extruding a polymer material through a die into at least one tube, while feeding a liquid into the tube to obtain at least one liquid-containing tube; and sealing step of discontinuously pressing the at least one liquid-containing tube between a pair of pressurizing members at constant intervals to cause pressure-bonding before the tube solidifies, while continuously taking up the extruded tube.

Abstract: This invention relates to a fluid delivery apparatus, system and method, in particular the use of elastic bands to generate the force required to push fluid out from a container. The fluid that is delivered from the container maybe prefilled and stored prior to its actuation by the elastic band driver or it could be filled just before use. In one embodiment disclosed, a prefilled option would require the user to attach an appropriate extension tubing that acts as a flow control tube to the fluid container which in one embodiment is tubular shaped. In the application where the device is filled just before use, the fluid container that would be engaged with the actuating housing is presented with a fixed rate flow tube. The selection of a particular device configuration replaces the need for programming a flow rate into an electronic syringe pump.

Abstract: A method and a system of devices for continuous sterilization or pasteurization of foodstuffs contained in specific rigid containers, followed by continuous deep-vacuum sealing of the containers. The evacuation is obtained by rotary steam injection between the lids and the receptacles followed by sealing of the containers and cold showering that brings about condensation of the steam inside the container and consequently a deep vacuum. This results in a long-lasting deep-vacuum preservation of the food under organoleptic and nutritional quality conditions with a drastic reduction in the cooling time of the containers after sterilization or pasteurization, The reduction in cooling time is obtained by a low-temperature boiling under vacuum, which boiling is homogeneously distributed throughout the whole of the container. It is particularly suitable for pasty or liquid products or products in chunks included in a liquid or pasty mixture.
