How to Set Rotor Pump Speed Based on Product Viscosity | Grounton Pak

Rotor pump speed should be matched to product viscosity. This technical guide explains fixed-speed vs VFD drives, pre-fill requirements, and how to choose the right speed for viscous products.

How to Choose a Filling Machine for High-Viscosity Products | Grounton Pak

High-viscosity pastes, sauces with particles and sticky products need a metering pump that can push thick fluids without crushing solids. Learn how to choose between rotor, gear, piston and screw pump fillers — and why the rotor pump is the metering element.

Semi-automatic vs fully automatic filling machines: when to automate and when not to | Grounton Pak

The decision between semi-automatic and fully automatic filling depends on production volume, SKU count, budget and changeover frequency. A structured framework for making the right choice.

Sauce and condiment filling machines: handling particles, oil separation and hot-fill requirements | Grounton Pak

Sauces and condiments are among the most challenging products to fill — particles, oil separation, high viscosity and hot-fill temperatures all affect pump selection and line design.
