ABSTRACT A system for filling slush molds with liquid as slip. The containers are arranged along a line which is parallel with a guide track for a carriage. The carriage has an arm that swings between a raised position, non-interferent with the containers and a second position below the carriage where the arm is in filling position. The arm carries a filling nozzle which is intended to enter the mouth of the container. The nozzle has a probe. Electrical circuitry cooperating with the probe of the nozzle and sensing elements on the track and carriage are carried by the carriage. The sensing elements along the track are spaced, respectively, the same as the spacing of the containers. Each time a track sensing element is opposite the single different type cooperative sensing element of the carriage, the carriage will stop, the arm lowering the nozzle into the container mouth if permitted to do so. The circuitry includes means for sensing whether a container is properly in position and raising the arm while holding back the flow of liquid if the container is missing or out of alignment. If properly positioned and aligned, the arm will bring the nozzle into position to fill the container, will automatically sense when it is filled, stop the flow, raise the arm and cause the carriage to move to the next station. The circuitry controls automatically the proper sequence of energizing and de-energizing the drive means moving the carriage and operating the arm. The carriage is capable of moving to the end of the line and stopping, or returning fully to the line's beginning, or effecting the same filling operation in reverse. ii
