From Autelec they point out that “our packaging machines were born by and for the oil, they were not derived from machines for wine, vinegar or other products, and although today the latest models have of versions for other products, we continue to focus on olive oil, where we have achieved a very balanced machine with high reliability, the DL-294 Plus”. Indeed, this bottling machine by weight stands out for its versatility, since in a few seconds the amount of olive oil to be bottled can be varied between 0.01 and 10 liters and miniatures, with a resolution of 0.001 liter, perfectly adapting to containers of 1, 2, 3,785 (1 Gallon) or 5 liters, without the need to proceed to any adjustment; and for its high precision, thanks to its dosing system by weight that eliminates errors caused by different viscosities and temperatures, and the automatic and continuous adjustment that it incorporates -after filling each container, the machine automatically checks the quantity packed and performs timely corrections if necessary. Ideal for glass, cans, plastic or ceramics, it is also equipped with a highly effective anti-drip system to prevent the containers from getting dirty.
