The FDS4500 is an automatic dual-lane filling line made with one motorized indexing conveyor having two lanes that dispenses automatically two by two empty tubs, trays or buckets, bring them to the filling position(s), activates the optional double plastic film sealing machine, also named sealer or lidder (see our PL500-Double), bring the containers two by two under the lids (or over-caps) denesting & lids (or over-caps) depositor unit, and then under the closing unit.
