Description

This is a fully automatic inline filling machine for bottled water plants and bottle filling of non-carbonated beverages, including fruit juice and coolers, that are packed in PET bottles. Rinsing, filling, and capping of bottles are integrated in one, fully automatic synchronized machine.
This equipment is manufactured in an ISO***1 certified manufacturing facility to ensure the highest standards in the industry are met. Critical electronic components and PLC are made by Mitsubishi or Siemens. Pneumatic controls are made by respected companies in Italy or Japan. All bottle contact parts are made of food grade stainless steel or food grade plastic.
All production information and automation controls are displayed digitally. Automatic control and manual toggle adjustments are made on a PLC controlled touch-screen panel.

The bottles are clamped at the neck and suspended for smooth operation even with light weight PET bottles. Empty bottles are rinsed on the inside, and turned over **0 degrees prior to being filled.
Pressure filling nozzles deliver fast, efficient, and accurate dispensing with minimal dripping and leakage.
The Monoblock Consists of: Monoblock Base/Electrical Panel/Rinsing Station/Filling Station/Capping Station
Monoblock Base - The sturdy base is supported by adjustable feet and is made with stainless steel sheathing secured to the tubular frame. The base houses the motor and drive gears and it is accessible through stainless steel removeable doors. The rinser-filler-capper is motorized by a single AC electric motor and controlled by an inverter, which allows for variable speed operation. Operating speed of the rinser-filler-capper is synchronized.

Electrical Panel - The electric panel contains the inverter, motor starters, the PLC, and other electromechanical components for the operating of the machine. The inverter enables the operator to vary the rate of production. This variable speed contorl feature enables the operator to synchronize the rinser-filler-capper with other packaging machines running on the same line. Emergency stop button is mounted on front of touch screen panel.
Rinsing Station - The rotary rinsing turret consists of individual bottle neck grippers and spray nozzles to rinse the inside of PET bottles. All parts that contact the bottle are made of stainless steel or food grade plastic material. The bottle grippers take the bottles from the inlet starwheel while they are still driven by the starwheel, thus guaranteeing a secure grip. After the bottles are secured in the gripping mechanism, the bottle is turned upside down and centred above a spraying nozzle that directs a stream of rinse water into the bottle. After being rinsed, the water then drains out the bottle and automatically turned over to an upright position.
Filling Station - Filler has overflow style stainless steel fill heads that are suitable to fill thin flowable liquids in PET bottles. Starwheels move the bottles "by the neck" through the rinsing, filling and capping mechanisms. Filling valves are fully made of **6 stainless steel with food grade gaskets. The filling valves are secured to allow easy assembly and disassembly. Each valve is internally polished (mirror finish). If the bottle is not present the valve does not deliver any product.
Capping Station-Rotative capping turret with 6, 8, *0, *2, *5 heads, suitable to the application of screw plastic caps on PET bottles
The capper consists of a steel structure externally shrouded with a stainless steel casing.
The fixed part consists of the cap hopper, the cap feeder with relevant motor and the cam actuating the capping heads.
The cap feeder and all the parts in contact with the caps are made of stainless steel or food grade plastic.
The cap feeder guides the caps onto a chute fitted with a device to deliver them to the pick-off point with the open end down.
The capping heads are raised and lowered by the action of a follower that rides on a cam.
