Case Study: Hot filling and cooling line for deodorant and antiperspirant sticks
Automated production line for filling deodorant and antiperspirant sticks, featuring yellow container conveyors and a cooling system ensuring precision and efficiency throughout the process.

The packaging industry is continuously evolving, driven by the need for more efficient, flexible, and safe solutions. In this context, Mengibar has developed an innovative hot filling and cooling line for deodorant and antiperspirant sticks, delivering a production capacity of 250 units per minute.

Project challenges: versatility and safety

The primary challenge of this project was the simultaneous handling of two types of products with distinct formulations while minimizing any risk of cross-contamination.

Since deodorants and antiperspirants require different compositions, it was essential to ensure precise and safe filling through independent systems. Additionally, the client required a solution capable of managing seven different container formats while minimizing downtime and maintaining continuous production. Addressing these challenges demanded an advanced and highly efficient technological approach.

Mengibar’s technological solution: automation and precision

To guarantee safe and efficient filling, Mengibar designed a fully automated line featuring two independent rotary fillers. This setup enables separate processing of deodorants and antiperspirants, eliminating any risk of cross-contamination. While one filler operates, the other can undergo maintenance, ensuring uninterrupted production and optimizing overall line performance.

Another key aspect of this solution is its fast and automated format change system, which facilitates the transition between the seven container types within minutes. This technology minimizes adjustment times and optimizes line performance, ensuring continuous operation with maximum efficiency.

With a capacity of 250 units per minute, this filling line delivers high productivity without compromising product quality. The solution provides an optimal balance of speed, precision, and safety, setting a new benchmark for efficiency in deodorant and antiperspirant filling operations.
