Automated Vape Cartridge Filling Machine

A compact automated filler for viscous botanical oils, with a heated mixer, jacketed feed and temperature-controlled nozzle for clean, bubble-free 0.3-3 mL doses.

Description

The Automated Vape Cartridge Filling Machine is a compact, precision system for filling cartridges and pods with thick, viscous botanical oils. A heated mixer and jacketed feed keep the oil flowing, while a robotic head and temperature-controlled nozzle place an exact dose between 0.3 and 3 mL into each cartridge, clean and bubble-free, batch after batch. It replaces slow, messy hand-filling with consistent, programmable output.

The cycle

From oil to filled cartridge

1Heat & mixA 3000 mL heated mixer warms and stirs the oil to a uniform, flowable state.
2TransferJacketed PTFE feed moves it to a 300 mL heated barrel at the head.
3DoseAn X-Z head and X-Y table fill each cart through a heated nozzle.
4TrayHeated Teflon trays hold the cartridges warm for even fills.

How it works

Heat keeps it flowing, robotics keep it precise

Viscous oils only fill cleanly when they stay warm and fluid. Every stage of this machine is electrically heated and sensor-monitored, from the 3000 mL mixer through the PTFE feed lines to the stainless nozzle, so the oil never thickens or clogs on its way to the cartridge.

A robotic X-Z filling head and X-Y positioning table line up each cartridge and dispense a programmed dose, and the heated nozzle prevents stringing and bubbles for a clean fill. Everything runs from a touchscreen PLC with recipe recall, so volume, temperature and timing stay identical across the whole tray.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Vape cartridges and pods with thick, viscous botanical oils, concentrates and distillates, at a programmable dose of 0.3 to 3 mL each.

Every stage is heated and monitored, from the 3000 mL mixer through PTFE feed lines to the nozzle, so the oil stays fluid and never clogs.

It keeps the oil flowing right at the tip, which prevents stringing and trapped bubbles for a clean, accurate fill.

Yes. A touchscreen PLC runs the cycle with recipe recall, controlling volume, temperature and timing, while a robotic head and table position each cartridge.

A compact 600 × 600 × 600 mm aluminium body at about 50 kg, running on 220 V at 1 kW, so it fits most lab or light industrial benches.
