Eliminating waste in production

Cutting nozzles are precision components for automated filling machines, ideal for high-viscosity liquids such as chocolate, lotion, and adhesives. They cleanly cut off the flow without leaving strings or drips.
There’s no need to wait for drips to subside or remove residual strings manually. The clean separation prevents defects, reduces the need for inspections and cleaning, and significantly lowers overall production costs.
Reducing waste also contributes to environmental sustainability. Simply replacing the nozzle can improve production capacity, reduce defect rates, and shorten work hours—resulting in planned, eco-friendly manufacturing.
This performance has been recognized and adopted by numerous companies across industries.

The moment of liquid cut-off

No-dripping filling nozzles

“Stringing” in liquid filling is a subtle yet persistent problem on the factory floor that steadily undermines both efficiency and quality. Our cutting nozzles for filling machines solve this issue at its root. By dramatically improving clean cut-off performance, they reduce defects and drive a significant reduction in defect rates.
But the benefits do not stop there. That single issue of stringing triggers a cascade of hidden costs:
• Scrap from discarded product
• Increased labor hours for cleaning
• Opportunity losses from overproduction used as a safety margin
• Ultimately, higher total costs
Our cutting nozzles are designed to eliminate these invisible costs and stresses. This is more than a simple parts replacement; it is a solution that restores manufacturing quality and efficiency, giving your team back valuable time and resources.

Long-lasting, repairable filling nozzles

Our cutting nozzles are crafted with exceptional precision by skilled artisans using manual lathes, even though industrial products are typically mass-produced using computerized systems. Thanks to their highly accurate centering, torque is evenly distributed when the nozzle closes, significantly reducing mechanical stress. As a result, our nozzles boast more than twice the service life of standard OE nozzles used in general filling equipment.
Even if the liquid cut-off performance deteriorates over extended use, the nozzle can be recalibrated or adjusted to match its current condition. This ensures a long-lasting and cost-effective operation over time.

Reducing defective products to 1/100

Cutting nozzles are widely adopted by Japan’s leading cosmetics manufacturers. Among our customers, we have achieved a proven reduction in defect rates—from 1% down to as low as 0.01%.
Lower defect rates not only lead to a higher yield of quality products, but also prevent the accumulation of hidden costs such as disposal of defective items, raw materials and labor for surplus production, inspection efforts, and cleaning work. These savings translate into significant cost advantages.
This is one of the key reasons why our cutting nozzles are trusted by many OEM manufacturers.
