Model LU-GT1
LU-GT1 Single-Nozzle Pneumatic Paste Filling Machine
The LU-GT1 is a compact single-nozzle pneumatic piston filler for start-ups, batch production and frequent changeovers. The operator presents each container and triggers a measured dose, making it a flexible first step away from hand filling.
Published figures are application-dependent reference data and must be confirmed during specification or product trials.
Typical duties
Applications
- Sauces, honey and food pastes

- Viscous liquid and batch filling
Machine format
Key features
- Single pneumatic piston cylinder
- Foot-pedal or automatic-cycle operation
- Adjustable dose and fill speed
- Hopper-fed product supply
- Compact bench-mounted design

Selection note
What must be confirmed
Actual output is limited by the operator, container handling, product refill and cleaning. Choose the cylinder near the working dose range rather than expecting one oversized cylinder to cover every SKU efficiently.

LU-GT1 questions
What products suit the LU-GT1?
The machine is normally shortlisted for sauces, honey and food pastes, shampoo, gel and lotion, cosmetic cream and personal care. Final suitability depends on product behaviour, materials compatibility, fill range and the intended container.
Is the published output guaranteed for the LU-GT1?
No. Published figures are reference conditions. Real throughput depends on product viscosity or flow, dose size, container handling, operator workflow, changeovers and downstream equipment.
Can this machine be integrated into a filling line?
Integration can be assessed with conveyors, container handling, capping, labelling, coding, sealing and accumulation. The control and layout scope should be agreed before order.
What should I send for a quotation?
Send the product data, fill volumes, container samples or drawings, target output, utilities, cleaning method, available footprint and details of any upstream or downstream machinery.

Application verification
Prove the complete one-operator paste-filling cycle
For a single-nozzle pneumatic piston filler, machine cycle and operator cycle are closely linked. Test the actual product, pack handling, pedal or control position, nozzle cut-off, closure transfer and product replenishment as one work method.
| Verification area | Evidence to collect | Decision supported |
|---|---|---|
| Product and dose | Viscosity, temperature, particles and results at the required dose range. | Cylinder/valve configuration and application fit. |
| Operator presentation | Container location, reach, support and initiation method. | Bench/work-cell arrangement and sustainable cycle. |
| Cut-off | Drip, string, external nozzle wetting and pack-neck cleanliness. | Nozzle, valve and suck-back adjustment. |
| Replenishment | Hopper/source refill, lifting, prime and product left in the system. | Operator workload and product-feed option. |
| Change and clean | Recovery, parts, tools, cleaning, reassembly and first-off approval. | Batch turnaround and training. |
