Depending on the expansion level and concept, this plant is designed for fully-automated filling and manufacturing of different products. Pillar candles or votives are automatically filled and cooled in individual forms of aluminum or plastic. Subsequently the molded blanks are removed from the forms, milled at both ends, provided with a drilling hole, wicked, labeled and packaged.
In the case of fragranced candles and glass candles, on the other hand, the containers are first wicked fully-automatically. Single wicks and multiple wicks are possible here. Just for filling we offer numerous options – depending on the customer requirements. Filling accuracies play as large a role here as do the work required for product changes and wide variety. After being filled, the product cools down. To compensate shrinkage tapers you can now – depending on the wax type – level the surface or fill it for a second time.
Although wicking is omitted for wax melts & tarts, the dosing accuracy as well as the fragrance and the color in particular play a large role here.
All example products can be labelled and packaged fully automatically after manufacturing. Printed labels, film packaging or carton packaging. Individually or in collective package. Our specialists already have the solution for packaging your candle.
