Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé pour remplir des d'emballage (2) ouverts d'un côté, notamment des emballages composites en carton, avec des produits coulants, notamment des denrées alimentaires, dans une remplisseuse (1), lors duquel de l'air chaud, de l'air de séchage, un agent de stérilisation et/ou le produit à déverser sont introduits dans les emballages (2) ouverts d'un côté depuis le haut par le biais d'au moins une buse (24, 30, 34, 36, 38-44). Selon l'invention, pour pouvoir introduire l'air chaud, l'agent de stérilisation, l'air de séchage et/ou le produit à déverser dans les emballages ouverts d'un côté, avec de moyens simples en termes d'équipement et/ou de processus, joints à des débits élevés, l'au moins une buse (24, 30, 34, 36, 38-44) est positionnée de manière excentrée par rapport à l'emballage (2) ouvert d'un côté lors de l'introduction de l'air chaud, de l'air de séchage, de l'agent de stérilisation et/ou du produit à introduire dans l'emballage (2).
