Gun-Type Liquid Filling Machine
A dispensing gun works like a fuel nozzle with a flow meter: the operator fills heavy drums and containers without moving them off the pallet.

Where gun filling fits
For containers, drums, IBC tanks and 5-20 litre packs, a gun is far more practical than a closed nozzle. The operator dips the gun, pulls the trigger and flow stops at the target volume.
SORM Pro and SORM Master are configured with a gun and flow meter for this work, and the custom gun design limits product loss.
- ✓Filling from the pallet, no heavy lifting
- ✓Flow-meter or timed dosing mode
- ✓Loss control during filling
- ✓5-20 litre container and drum compatibility
Flow meter or timed dosing
Timed dosing is simple: the pump runs for a set time. It works for stable viscosity, but weights drift as temperature changes.
A flow meter measures real volume, so the target holds when viscosity or temperature shifts. Viscous and hot products prefer the meter.
Loss control and operator safety
The main risk is product left in the hose and gun after filling. The custom gun and a short line reduce that loss.
For chemical and acidic products, gun and hose material follow the product chemistry, and splash protection is planned in.
Frequently asked questions
How much can a gun fill?+
From 5 to 20 litres and larger drums.
Is a flow meter required?+
It is needed for stable weights when viscosity varies.
Can it fill from a pallet?+
Yes, SORM Master is designed for pallet-level filling.
How much loss is avoided?+
Residue drops with the custom gun and short line; the exact share depends on product and setup.
