What are the stand's specifications?

The FF3's integrated stand measures 80 × 46 × 24 cm and weighs 11 kg , and provides: 201 stainless steel construction — matches the machine's corrosion-resistance profile; easy to wipe clean. Adjustable leveling feet — fine-tune the height and level the machine on slightly uneven workshop floors; important for paste lines where the cylinder and nozzle must be aligned vertically over the container mouth. Built-in side-mounted container tray/platform — a stable landing spot right beside the filling nozzle; the operator slides the jar onto the tray, slides it under the nozzle to fill, then slides it back. Reduces spillage and speeds up small-format loading. Floor-standing working height — operator fills while standing; no need to procure or build a separate bench; one-shipment delivery.

Are the product-contact materials food grade?

The frame is 201 stainless steel and all product-contact parts are food-grade 304 stainless steel , meeting food-safety requirements; 316 stainless steel can be customized (greater acid/alkali and corrosion resistance — suited to pharmaceutical, chemical and corrosive products). Seals are food-grade silicone (rated 200 °C). The FF3's integrated stand and tray are also 201 stainless steel.

Will it drip, string or paste-tail?

No. The nozzle uses a bottom-close positive shutoff design — the discharge closes the moment filling ends, guaranteeing drip-free operation. For paste applications this is critical: no stringing, no paste tail, no residue on the bottle mouth — keeping cosmetic jars, food containers and pharma packaging clean (on flammable products this is also a fire-safety benefit). Nozzle orifices can be selected within a 5–25 mm range (sized for paste flow).

Is changing the fill volume or switching between paste and liquid troublesome?

Not at all. Within the model's range you simply adjust the piston stroke to change the fill volume — no parts replacement needed; a changeover takes only a few minutes. Switching between paste and liquid is also simple: change the nozzle (paste nozzle vs. liquid nozzle) and adjust the piston stroke and speed — a few minutes, no tools required.

Can it run fully automatically? Which head configurations are available?

Electric-pneumatic version: yes — it supports both foot-pedal (semi-automatic) and automatic electric-timer (automatic) modes , switchable at any time. Fully-pneumatic version: foot-pedal (semi-automatic) trigger only — no electric timer on a machine with no electrics; this is the trade-off for explosion-proof safety. For higher output, all versions can be ordered as single-head, dual (2-head), 4-head or multi-head machines (one cylinder per head) — no machine replacement needed.

What are the MOQ, delivery time and warranty?

MOQ is 1 unit ; the factory keeps goods in stock for fast dispatch; export packing is a heavy-duty carton, one machine per case, with tools and spare parts included; the stand ships with the machine (only minor leveling-foot adjustment required on arrival). The machine carries a 1-year warranty (free repair or part replacement for non-human damage during the warranty period; international freight borne by the customer), with lifetime maintenance service after the warranty period.

Can I choose the hopper capacity? Can I get a heating, stirring or pressurized hopper?

Yes. The hopper comes standard at 30L (same dimensions and weight as FF2/FF6), with 40L, 60L or 80L larger options for high-volume lines that need fewer refill stops. Three hopper types can also be fitted to suit the product: a heating hopper (temperature control keeps honey, chocolate paste, syrup and other products that thicken when cool free-flowing); a stirring hopper (continuous agitation prevents settling, separation and surface skinning — ideal for fruit-piece jams/sauces); and a pressurized hopper (compressed air assists stable feeding of very viscous pastes — a native fit on the fully-pneumatic version). Hopper options are identical to the FF2/FF6 — the only FF3 addition is the integrated stand.

CECLE FF3 vs. Traditional / Generic Alternative

Where the CECLE FF3 stands out against manual or generic paste filling machines — measured on the dimensions buyers care about most.

Chassis Rigidity & Vibration Resistance

CECLE FF3The FF3 shares its machine body, hopper, filling specifications and weights with the FF2 (electric-pneumatic) and FF6 (fully-pneumatic) series

Lightweight Sheet Metal ConstructionProne to chassis flex, frame warping over time, and seal leakage.

Operational Mechanism & Drive

CECLE FF3Its two differentiators: (1) the integrated 201 stainless steel floor stand — the FF3 is the line-ready, floor-standing version; (2) both drive architectures are orderable on the same platform — the customer.

Manual Lever / Foot UnitsOutput depends on operator strength and drifts between shifts; no stable drive control.

Pressure Consistency

CECLE FF3Electric-pneumatic version: total power draw only approx. 100W (0.1 kW) — electricity cost almost negligible

Inconsistent Spring/Manual PressureForce drifts with operator fatigue and batch size, causing weak seals and rejects.

Output Speed & Throughput

CECLE FF3It is tuned for continuous commercial throughput with minimal idle time.

Slow Manual CyclingLoading and cycling depend on operator pace, capping real throughput and raising labor cost.

Standard Operating Procedure (SOP)

Requirement confirmation: fill volume per cycle (ml), speed requirement, product type (paste / liquid / both
flammable or not) → drives model range and nozzle size
the drive-version decision (stable power + non-flammable + wants auto-timer → electric-pneumatic version
explosion-proof zone / flammable / solvent-based / solvent-based product / no on-site power → fully-pneumatic version)
workshop power specification (220V/50–60Hz
other voltages to be confirmed with the factory)
whether the customer already has an air compressor (both versions need one)

Engineering FAQ

Does this machine need electricity?
A: It depends on the version you order. The FF3 is available in two drive versions: the electric-pneumatic version requires a 220V / 50–60Hz supply (power draw only ~ 100W ) plus an air compressor (0.4–0.6 MPa); the fully-pneumatic version contains no electric components whatsoever and requires no electricity at all — only an air compressor (0.4–0.6 MPa).

Do I need an air compressor?
A: Yes — both versions use pneumatic actuation and must be connected to an air compressor supplying 0.4–0.6 MPa . An ordinary small piston-type compressor (with an air receiver/tank) is sufficient; one can also be added to the order. (Choosing the fully-pneumatic version removes the electricity requirement, not the compressed-air requirement.)

Is the machine explosion-proof?
A: The fully-pneumatic FF3 version is — it contains no electric components, so there is no ignition source; it is intrinsically safe and suited to explosion-proof zones and to filling flammable, solvent-based or solvent-based products (hand sanitizer gel, perfume, solvent tinctures, solvent-based adhesives, paints, inks). The electric-pneumatic version is not intended for explosion-proof duty — order the fully-pneumatic version for those applications.

What are the filling accuracy and speed?
A: Accuracy is within ±1% (piston-type metering — stable, no drift); speed is 5–30 cycles/min (paste-tuned; slower than liquid-only fillers because paste requires longer per-stroke settling), and the filling speed is adjustable.

Can it fill both paste and liquids? What products can it handle?
A: Yes — the FF3 is optimized for paste and high-viscosity products, and also fills free-flowing liquids (on the fully-pneumatic version, including flammable / solvent-based / solvent-based liquids). Primary use: sauce, ketchup, jam, honey, peanut butter, chocolate paste, mustard, mayonnaise; face cream, body lotion, hand cream, shampoo (thick), shower gel, hair conditioner; ointments; detergents (thick); lubricants and adhesives. Secondary use: water, juice, milk, edible oil, liquid seasonings, liquid medicine, liquid detergents. One machine covers both paste and liquid categories — change the nozzle, adjust the piston stroke, switch product categories in minutes.

How is the FF3 different from the FF2 and FF6?
A: The FF3 shares its machine body, hopper, filling specifications and weights with the FF2 and FF6 series — same piston metering (±1%), same 5–30 cycles/min paste-tuned speed, same 8-model lineup covering 5–5000 ml, same 30L standard hopper (40L/60L/80L optional; heating/stirring/pressurized options), same 201 SS frame + 304 SS contact parts (316 optional), same nozzle/drip-free/seal configuration. The FF3's single difference: it ships on an integrated 201 stainless steel floor stand — dimensions 80 × 46 × 24 cm, weight 11 kg — with adjustable leveling feet and a side container tray, turning the benchtop FF2/FF6 into a ready-to-use floor-standing production station. The FF3 can be ordered with either drive: electric-pneumatic (FF2 architecture, with auto-timer mode) or fully-pneumatic (FF6 architecture, explosion-proof). Choose FF3 for line-ready floor-standing operation; choose FF2/FF6 if you already have your own bench/table and want a tabletop unit.
