An aerosol can filling machine has a piston (15,16) and dosage cup (4) for dispensing a dosage of flowable material into an aerosol can (8). The hopper (3) comprises a reservoir for storing the flowable material and a reservoir aperture through which said piston is moveable. A connector (2) is provided for connecting the reservoir to the dosage cup (4) and feeding flowable material thereto. The connecter (2) locating the reservoir between piston (15,16) and dosage cup (4) such that, in use, the piston (15,16) is moveable through the reservoir and into the dosage cup (4) for injecting a quantity of flowable material into the aerosol can (8). The aerosol can filling machine also having locator control means for preventing repeated operation until a locator switch (20) detects that the aerosol can (8) has been removed and replaced. |
