The realm of cannabis vape cartridges alone has shown many twists and turns throughout its legalization journey. Today, data from Headset shows that cannabis vapes are the second most popular product category in the U.S., with Gen Z and Millennials making up 70.8% of vape sales in the country. Vape cartridge sales have nearly doubled each year since 2018, with exciting new extraction methods and concentrates like live rosin and resin taking the spotlight.
This accelerated growth shows no indication of slowing down, which is why industry manufacturers and operators must stay ahead of the curve.
So, while a rapidly growing industry continues to face skyrocketing sales and new consumer demands – how does a cannabis operator stay afloat with these constant advancements?
One standout company that is paving the way for cannabis processing and automation is Houston’s own Xylem Technologies. The company is making waves with its intelligent automation solutions and vape cart filling machines that deliver speed, precision, and efficiency to any cannabis processing facility.
Through their ingenious line of automated cannabis processing machines, such as the X4 Vape Cart Filling Machine, Xylem aims to not only meet current industry standards but continuously anticipate and adapt to the evolving demands of the market.
When operators choose Xylem for their cannabis processing, the outcome is clear – the company’s cannabis automation solutions spark a more efficient operation, resulting in a consistent and reliable quality product that consumers can trust.
The Intersection of Compliant Industry Standards and Engineering Innovation
Founded by a group of scientists, engineers, and visionaries, Xylem Technologies is committed to advancing cannabis processing efficiencies into real-world solutions that drive the cannabis industry forward.
Specializing in vape cart filler machines and cartridge manufacturing, Xylem empowers companies to scale their processing operation rapidly and efficiently to help enhance profit margins and expedite the process.
With industry-leading robotics equipment and smart automation technology, Xylem leveraged the company’s deep understanding of the international supply chain and industry manufacturing techniques to establish their fully automated in-line filling and capping machine for vape cartridge manufacturing.
The Houston-based company’s industry expertise and innovative approach to automated processing have given solutions to operators who are looking for a single, streamlined manufacturing process and reduced wait time to market.
Xylem’s automation solutions give operators unmatched speed and precision for vape cart production, increasing profit margins while drastically reducing manufacturing time and labor costs.
Changing the Game for Vape Cart Production and Manufacturing
Designed for speed, scale, and quality, the automated vape filling machine – with both in-line filling and capping – is a game-changer in precision and overall efficiency for cannabis cartridge processing.
Xylem’s vape filler automation solutions allow for unmatched speed and precision while offering clients transformational efficiency in their high-end technology line of machine equipment.
With the dedicated mission of maintaining product integrity, their in-line filling and capping vape cartridge system allows for the preservation of terpenes in concentrates due to lower machine temperatures. The Xylem X4 Automated Cart Filling Machine can fill at temperatures as low as 35 degrees Celsius. Crossing the lines between customization and automation, this cannabis machinery is compatible with all vape cartridges, such as the press, screw, or click models.
The cap filler element of the X4 machine caps and fills cartridges within seconds, reducing the risk of product inconsistencies within the vape cart material, such as airborne contamination or cannabinoid degradation. The line of automated cannabis processing solutions is designed to seamlessly integrate within your facility’s existing operation with customizable packages and start/stop workflow combinations so you are always effectively operating at your desired pace.
The automated vape filler machine’s in-line design reflects a paradigm shift in the industry’s manufacturing operations. The X4 has the exceptional ability to fill all forms of cannabis concentrates – from live rosin, resin, distillate, sauce, CBD, and even D9, D8, and D10 concentrates. If you’re an operator who is juggling the product manufacturing of multiple vape cartridge types in one day, Xylem X4’s self-cleaning component allows for an easier shift when interchanging vapes or concentrate types.
Ceramic pumps and inert gas overlay features on the X4 result in a vape cartridge that is fully filled and finished with superior fit, flavor, and presentation – one that won’t resort to overfills or cracks down the line, thanks to the machine’s leak-resistant vacuum locks.
Advanced Automated Scalability & Speed with Xylem X4
As a catalyst for transformative change and industry innovation, the Xylem X4 is designed to benefit cannabis operators in a multitude of operations and combinations.
One of the many challenges most cannabis vape cartridge processors face is the potential risk of product damage due to overfilling. Compared to the hand-filling cart techniques that require syringes for precise fill, Xylem’s automated technology gives a seamless and less sticky transition. The X4 elegantly elevates the syringe after fully filling a single cartridge, reducing transfer loss or waste and, instead, resulting in a cart that contributes to a more optimized production.
Gravity wells on Xylem’s X4 automated vape filling machine further streamline this manufacturing process for cannabis operators. Once a vape cartridge has been filled, the caps and cartridges are dumped in gravity wells that automatically funnel down the X4’s system.
These gravity wells ingeniously sort the direction of the caps and carts post-filling, creating a fully automated process that is customized and adjusts to the cart size. Cannabis operators can also adjust the machine’s depth of filling, whether it’s a half-gram, full-gram, ceramic, or glass-based cartridge.
With the system’s fully automated features, Xylem’s vape automation solutions have presented a substantial reduction in labor costs. Previously, the company has experienced clients shifting and repurposing operating employees for other advanced workforces and positions within their operation due to X4’s efficient and beneficial automated efforts. Not only does this beneficial factor contribute to a swift ROI, but it accelerates clients toward a path of better scalability and profitability.
The X4’s in-line design allows cartridges to be manufactured from fill to cap within seconds without any operator intervention. In a single hour, the Xylem X4 can deliver an impressive output of 1,650 filled and capped vape cartridges (or, in a single day shift, a staggering 12,000).
On top of all the innovative features and elements of the X4’s automated vape filler machine, Xylem continues staying at the forefront of cannabis automation technology through continuous R&D. The ongoing commitment to research and development within vape manufacturing is how the origination of Xylem’s automated vape filling machines all started – the team of Houston engineers and scientists learned about the processing troubles one of their clients faced and worked closely with the operators to develop a machine and product based on the tedious operation tasks at hand.
Exceptional Customer Service & Product Design for Streamlined Manufacturing Success
Further combining their innovative engineer eye with the team’s industry and cannabis processing expertise, Xylem offers exceptional customer service to clients who need troubleshooting or support for their automated vape cartridge filling needs.
On-site servicing, 24/7 video chat support, and advanced machine training for operators allow Xylem to directly transfer their knowledge and automation so operators can confidently and efficiently streamline their manufacturing process.
From its initial company mission of maintaining product integrity, the innovative in-line design of the automated machines’ features, and their ongoing one-on-one customer support, Xylem encourages operators to fully harness the capabilities and benefits of their proprietary automated processing solution.
In a rapidly evolving cannabis landscape, it’s time for manufacturers to advance with the demands and growth of the industry.
Xylem’s continuous commitment to conceptual innovation and design ensures quality vape manufacturing for B2B manufacturers in the cannabis industry and beyond.
