Abstract

An apparatus for filling at least one container defining an opening is provided. The apparatus includes a filling spout in flow communication with a source of filling material. The filling spout is configured to enable the opening of the at least one container to fit about the filling spout. At least two stationary sensor assemblies are positioned about the filling spout. The at least two stationary sensor assemblies are configured to detect whether a container is positioned about the filling spout.
