⚠️ Transparency Note: This is not a customer case study. It is a reference configuration based on common industry requirements. Budgets are estimated for equipment only and do not include raw materials, shipping, or facility construction. Actual pricing depends on your specific product, output, and can specifications.
Target Customer
Small manufacturers and startups entering the deodorant or air freshener market. Suitable for companies producing 5,000-8,000 cans per day with a single shift.
Equipment Configuration
| Model | Equipment | Why This Choice |
|---|---|---|
| FD9501 | 2-in-1 Liquid Filler + Sealer | Combined filling and 1-inch valve sealing on one station — saves one operator and floor space |
| FD9402 | Desktop Gas Filler (LPG/DME) | Quantitative propellant filling with ±1% accuracy for liquefied gas propellants |
| FD9405 | Booster Pump | Sparks-free propellant transfer from storage cylinder to gas filler — essential for LPG/DME |
| FD9955 | Hot Water Bath Leak Tester | 55-65°C water bath with 3-5 minute dwell — mandatory for most export markets |
| FD9954 | Automatic Checkweigher | Per-can weight verification with automatic reject for under/overfills |
Production Process
| 1. Can Loading | Operator places empty aerosol can on filling station |
| 2. Liquid Filling | FD9501 fills 150-400 ml deodorant concentrate into can (±1% accuracy) |
| 3. Valve Placement | Operator inserts 1-inch valve onto filled can |
| 4. Valve Sealing | FD9501 sealing station crimps valve to can — Cr12 steel jaw ensures consistent seal |
| 5. Propellant Gassing | FD9402 injects LPG propellant through valve stem — FD9405 booster pump supplies from storage |
| 6. Leak Testing | FD9955 water bath: cans travel through 55-65°C water for 3-5 minutes — visual inspection through protective window |
| 7. Weight Check | FD9954 checkweigher: each can weighed, under/overfills automatically rejected |
| 8. Packaging | Manual actuator placement, capping, and carton packing |
Estimated Budget
| Core Equipment | $30,000 – $40,000 |
| QC Equipment (Water Bath + Checkweigher) | $8,000 – $12,000 |
| Compressed Air System | $2,000 – $3,000 |
| Installation & Commissioning | $3,000 – $5,000 |
| Total Investment (Equipment) | $43,000 – $60,000 |
Facility Requirements
50-70 m² total. Production area: ~30 m². Raw material storage: ~15 m². Finished goods: ~15 m². Requires explosion-proof electrical in gas filling zone. Minimum ceiling height: 3.0 m.
Operators: 3-4 workers per shift
💡 Why This Configuration
Lowest entry cost for aerosol production. The FD9501 2-in-1 design eliminates one separate station, reducing both equipment cost and operator count. This is the most common starting configuration we see from first-time manufacturers.
