All-in-One Laboratory Aerosol & BOV

-

The All-in-One Laboratory is an advanced semi-automatic research and production station designed to support all key technologies used in the aerosol industry – both classic and Bag-On-Valve (BOV). It is a compact and versatile solution for product testing, process validation, pilot-scale production, and the development of new formulations.

The device enables complete filling and closing of containers using various technologies and configurations. The set includes:

  • liquid product filling head,
  • crimping head for standard and BOV valves (with an optional external crimping head for PET),
  • BOV product filling head with the option to integrate a mixer for gel products (e.g., shaving foams),
  • propellant gas filling head installed in a closed safety box with a ventilation system.

All heads are equipped with the No Can No Work system, which prevents the machine from starting a cycle without a properly positioned container – effectively avoiding leaks and improving workplace safety.

This solution is designed for companies with a broad product portfolio, advanced R&D departments, and ambitious teams seeking new solutions and striving to raise quality standards in aerosol production.

For optimal sealing quality, we recommend equipping the workstation with a crimp measurement set, available in the Measuring and Laboratory Instruments section.

Key Features:

  • Complete filling and closing process for classic aerosols and BOV in a single compact station
  • Optional integration of a mixer for dense or homogenized products
  • Safe gas filling head enclosed in a ventilated safety box
  • No Can No Work safety system integrated into all heads
  • High precision and repeatability of dosing – suitable even for challenging formulations
  • Compatible with steel, aluminum, BOV, and PET valves
  • Intuitive operation – ideal for labs, R&D departments, and pilot production
  • Expandable and configurable to meet specific user needs
  • Compact footprint – easy to implement in limited spaces

PT5253 Semi-Automatic Crimping and Gas Filling Machine

+

The PT5253 is a semi-automatic device that combines two key stages of aerosol production – valve crimping and propellant gas filling – in a single, compact machine. Both modules are integrated on a shared frame enclosed in a ventilated safety housing, ensuring space efficiency, enhanced workplace safety, and improved operator ergonomics.

The crimping unit is based on the PT-52 model and enables precise, repeatable sealing of both steel and aluminum valves – including single- and double-piece valves, as well as gas and PU valves. The gas filling module is derived from the PT-53 design and allows for accurate filling of sealed containers with various types of propellant gases using adapters compatible with 1”, male, female, gas, and PU valves.

The machine reaches a combined output of up to 15 containers per minute, depending on the gas type, valve configuration, and operator experience. The crimping and filling cycle is initiated via a pair of buttons, and the gas filling head is equipped with a No-Can-No-Fill safety system that prevents accidental gas release if a container is not correctly positioned.

Key Features:

  • Two modules on a single frame: crimping and gas filling
  • Ventilated safety housing – enhanced safety and operator comfort
  • Output up to 15 containers/min (depending on conditions)
  • No-Can-No-Fill safety system
  • Compatible with steel and aluminum valves
  • Handles single- and double-piece, standard, gas, and PU valves
  • Adjustable crimping height and diameter
  • Manual gas fill volume adjustment
  •  Operates exclusively with compressed air – no electrical connection required

Manual Crimper and Semi-Automatic Gas Filler RPT5253

+

RPT5253 is a basic set designed for small-batch aerosol production or short test series. It consists of a manual crimper and a semi-automatic module for filling aerosol containers with propellant gas. Its compact design, low operating costs, and simple operation make it an ideal solution for laboratories, pilot lines, and R&D applications.
The set enables quick and precise valve crimping using a manual lever and accurate gas dosing with a pneumatically powered filling unit. The output reaches up to 15 containers per minute – depending on the operator’s experience and process settings.
The crimper features adjustable crimp height and diameter, allowing it to match the technical requirements of various valve types. The head is lowered manually and crimps the valve from the inside once locked in position. It is compatible with both steel and aluminum valves. The gas amount is set manually, and the filling cycle is initiated via foot pedal or push button.
Key Features:
  • Complete crimping and gas filling set
  • Manual crimping via ergonomic hand lever
  • Pneumatic gas filling module – precise and repeatable dosing
  • Output up to 15 containers/min (depending on operator)
  • Adjustable crimp height and diameter
  • Compatible with steel and aluminum aerosol valves
  • Compact design with low operating and maintenance costs
