VF 600 and VF 800 vacuum filler control system

The control centre in the vacuum filler
State-of-the-art control technology, programmed in-house, plus an ergonomic operating position and intuitive operation in 28 languages. This control system in the Handtmann vacuum fillers perfectly controls, monitors and links the production process.

Intuitive operation on the display
The display of the control system allows users to centrally control and monitor all the functions. With colour display, icon language and simple operating logic based on Windows CE, the control system facilitates a very wide range of functions.

Most up-to-date drive and control technology
The Handtmann servo technology is a system that monitors movements, is able to shape sequences dynamically, superimposes signals and movements and adapts itself in line with downstream systems. The interaction of individually programmable software, high-end amplifiers and high-performance servo motors creates the excellent precision in controlling movements displayed by Handtmann machines. This precise positioning of the drives results in exceptionally first-class portioning accuracy.

Synchronisation with upstream and downstream process modules
The Handtmann control is the basis for reliable synchronisation of several process steps. As the central control element, complex production processes are thus easy to control. The VF 600 and VF 800 vacuum fillers are therefore superior central control components in complex system solutions and highly compatible basic modules in automated production processes.

Filling system network via HCU software
The Handtmann software connects the filling systems to the production operation’s data network. HCU software controls all production sequences. Batch tracking and accurate documentation of production ensures 100 % traceability and thus provides information on the potential for savings. Automatic weight control and a production planning tool are optional additions.
