Abstract

For the metered filling of bulk material, especially liquids, into receptacles, especially glass receptacles, there is provided a filling station to which a conveying device leads the receptacles, which are to be filled, individually or in groups. A weighing device determines before the start of the filling operation the tare of the receptacles which are to be filled, and blocks the feeding of bulk material when a specified gross weight has been reached. The conveying device moves the receptacles preferably by means of worm conveyers which are lifted off the receptacles during the weighing and filling operation.
