Abstract: A method of filling containers with liquid product includes receiving a signal from at least one sensor corresponding to an amount of liquid product in a holding tank, the holding tank having an outlet for feeding the liquid product to a container filling apparatus; transferring liquid product from the outlet of the holding tank to an inlet of the container filling apparatus; and filling at least one container with the liquid product through at least one nozzle of the container filling apparatus for a predetermined fill time, wherein an amount of the liquid product dispensed during the predetermined fill time is based on a pressure at the outlet of the holding tank, wherein a head pressure in the holding tank is increased based on the signal from the sensor to control the pressure at the outlet of the holding tank as the liquid product is fed from the holding tank.
Abstract: A method and system for cold blow-fill-seal packaging of a product. The method and system are directed to maintaining a relatively cold temperature of the product to be packaged during the flow-fill-seal process. This accomplished via the use of one or more of, for example, a heat-exchanger in the system, insulated flow lines and steps taken during the procedure to maintain the temperature of the product below a certain level.
