Anthony Barber Associates manufactures an extensive collection of machinery and equipment, all of which is designed to be best suited to our individual customers' filling and production needs. As such, we offer a number of pneumatic filling machines and other equipment which can be a better alternative to electronic in certain situations and for certain customers. In an intrinsically safe environment, our semi-automatic machines can be supplied 100% pneumatic, while the fully -automatic machines do need an explosion proof motor drive. In these situations, pneumatic machines can offer a more cost effective solution to meeting C1D1 or C1D2 standards than their electronic counterparts. 

ABA-M376 is a two head top fill machine with swing frame fill heads and 1 gallon volumetric piston pumps. ABA-M376 blog.

ABA-M367 is a fully automatic paint filling machine with swing fill heads and 1 gallon pumps which is designed for a C1D1 area. ABA-M367 blog. The simplicity of the swing frame fill heads allows for simple cleanup and flushing of the pumps by simply moving the fill heads so that they are facing the rear of the machine and placing a product tank beneath them.

  - ABA-CRIMP-1PA-1C is a single stage pneumatic lid crimper which is designed to crimp metal lids onto pails ranging from 3-5 gallons. This crimper is mounted to a continuously running conveyor. 

  - ABA-CRIMP-1PA-1I is a single stage pneuamtic lid crimper which is mounted to an indexing conveyor. This is designed to crimp lids onto metal pails from 3-5 gallons and can be either fixed height or height adjustable. 

  - ABA-CRIMP-1PS-1NA is a semi-automatic, pneumatic lid crimper unit which can alternately be supplied with a press plate and is then part ABA-PRESS-5PS. These units are designed for an operator to press the buttons on both sides of the controls in order to activate the press or crimper and for safety reasons, both sides need to remain pressed in for the duration of the press or crimp time.
