Efficiency, Safety and Precision: Successfully Scaling Up Your Boom Filling Operations
March 20, 2025
Our customers typically investigate new Boom Arm Filler investment when they encounter operational challenges, need to improve their efficiency or scaling up their Boom Filling. The most frequently cited drivers for this decision include:
• Increased output demand when scaling up operations, or failure to meet existing production targets
• Product waste or regulatory issues with frequent overfills or underfills
• Need for greater precision to meet quality standards
• Handling new or more challenging products, including those which are highly viscous or require ATEX compliance
• Increased safety and other compliance considerations
• Frequent downtime or high maintenance costs of existing equipment
• Investing in a more energy-efficient machine to reduce operating costs
• Needing to overcome space or flexibility limitations, with equipment that can accommodate different container sizes (EG: drums, totes, IBCs)
• Investigating automation features to reduce labour costs and increase productivity

The Weigh Scale and Flowmeter Boom Fillers from Adelphi Masterfil are robust and versatile, designed to enhance efficiency and accuracy in your high volume liquid filling operations.
“We’re reliant on them. They’re working 8-10 hours per day, 5 or 6 days per week, and we fill around 9,000 IBC’s per year”
Paul Higson
Quality & Environmental Manager, BASF Swinton
“Well built and robust bits of kit. It’s a different feeling with Adelphi, a family company. They really care”
Derek Wilson
Maintenance Manager, Evans Vanodine
Exceptional Filling Accuracy
Achieving an impressive accuracy of up to ±0.2%, the boom filler minimises product waste and ensures consistent fill levels, directly contributing to increased profitability.
Versatile Design
Designed to accommodate fill volumes ranging from 20L to 1,000L and equipped with a swinging boom arm that is height adjustable. This machine enhances operator safety and comfort and allows for quick product and container changeovers, minimising production downtime.
Durable Construction
Constructed with hygienic 316L stainless steel and PTFE contact parts, the filler is suitable for a wide range of liquid viscosities, ensuring longevity and reliability even in demanding production environments.
Immediate Fill Verification
Weigh Scale model: The integrated weigh scale provides immediate verification of fill weight, eliminating the need for a separate check weigher and streamlining the quality control process.
Enhanced Operator Safety and Comfort
Building upon its reputation for prioritising operator safety, the boom filler features a 120-degree swinging arm, enabling operators to fill IBCs placed side by side without the need to move containers manually. This design reduces physical strain and enhances workflow efficiency.
The most frequently discussed benefits which our customers appreciate when scaling up their Boom Filling are operational savings, durability, ease of maintenance, and precision filling. Please note that an ATEX Cat II 2G IIB T3 compliant Boom Filler model is available.
