Flowmatic

CONTACTLESS HDPE/PET FILLER WITH ELECTRONIC FLOWMETERS

Electronic Filling and Capping Machines have been developed for filling Milk and Dairy Products (ayran, kephir, etc.) into HDPE or PET bottles with an electromagnetic volumetric measurement method. It does so rapidly, under sensitive and hygienic conditions.

The most important feature of the machine is that the valve can fill the bottles hygienically, without touching them. A wide range of products is available with alternative models which can reach up to 50,000 bottles per hour.

Product info:

Rinsing:

Special grippers are used to catch the bottles from their brims and turn them 180°. In the rinsing phase, depending on the nature of the product to be filled, water, sterile air, nitrogen or different cleaning liquids can be sprayed into the bottle.

Nozzles operating according to the “No Bottle-No Spray” system are activated only if the relevant grippers have a bottle, to save water.

Filling:

With the electromagnetic flowmeter, the filling can be done extremely quickly and precisely
As the bottle never touches the valve due to the “Contact Free Filling” technique, hygiene is at the utmost level
Since a separate “valve-flowmeter set” is used for each bottle, there is never any deviation in precision
The valves are controlled by the Electronic and Pneumatic Control Center placed on the filling tank
Pre-entered values according to different product and bottle volumes can be recalled from the operator panel and easily set during format change
Suitable for closed-loop CIP systems with sanitation caps

Capping:

Various capping groups can be mounted on the mono-block body so that different caps can be attached.

General features:

PLC-controlled fully automatic operation
Colorful and wide touchscreen operator panel
On-screen “Error messages” that make it easy to spot errors
Electronic speed change in main drive motor with frequency inverter
Central lubrication group situated at a single point in the machine
Stainless steel electrical control panel

Optional special hygienic applications:

Fully enclosed hygienic machine (Fans with HEPA filter mounted on the machine ceiling create positive pressure and largely prevent dust or bacteria from entering in)
Cap sterilization system (Cleans the inside of the cap with a vacuum before meeting the bottle and sterilizes it with ultraviolet light. There is also the option of washing the inside of the cap with ozonated water)
Manufacturing of components in contact with the product from AISI 316 stainless steel
Modem for remote access to PLC
Rinsing the bottle inside and outside with sterile air or hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in Rinser
Closed loop sanitation of nozzles in Rinser
Foam washing system (with hygienic pumps, nozzles, and valves)
