Rotary rinser I9
The filling process starts with a rinser which meticulously removes dust and other residues from bottles. Rinsing can be done with different rinsing medium, based on costumers needs.

Method of operation:
The bottle is transported from the bottle conveyor to the bottle griper with the help of the feeding star-wheel. Bottle gripper grips the bottle by the bottle neck, and rapidly turns it upside-down by means of a twist device that ensures the bottle’s correct positioning over the rinsing nozzles. The presence of the bottle sets up the machine to inject the rinsing medium in the bottle.
The actual injection of the medium is controlled by external cams, which can easily be modified to increase or reduce injection times.
After the injection is completed the bottle stays in the upside-down position to drain the medium from it. The griper rotates and turns the bottle in the upright position, the feeding star-wheel grabs the bottle and transports it back to the conveyor.

Standard features:
• Injection system for a single treatment with fixed nozzles.
• The bottles are turned upside-down by means of a twist cam device that ensures their correct positioning over the rinsing nozzles.
• Grippers in stainless steel AISI 304 with double opening for bottle gripping.
• “No bottle – No Spray”, if no bottle is present, the injection does not start.
• Set of plugs for one bottle neck size.
• Format parts for one glass bottle size (star-wheels).

• Mobile nozzle version.
• Rinsing medium pressure switch, in case of pressure drop, machine stops.
• Aisi 316l stainless steel parts in contact with rinsing medium.
• Hot temperature kit (seals, pipes, fittings for high temperature), rinsing max 100°C
• Set of pads for additional format of bottle neck.
• Set of dummy bottles for rinser cleaning

Rotary filler STANDARD line
STANDARD line is a series of fillers, with more complex systems allowing higher range of flexibility with settings, and integrated CIP, which allows fast and thorough cleaning afterwards.
Despite a higher level of complexity, line fillers are still user friendly.
The STANDARD line fillers, can be upgraded with a variety of additional options.

Method of operation:
The bottle is transported to the filling positon in the fillers turret with the help of a star wheel. The filling position consist of pneumatic bottle-raising pistons and a gravity filling valve. The piston lifts the bottle and opens the filling valve by pressing the bottle neck against rubber seat on the valve. The bottle is connected to the filling valve in a close system. The liquid from the filler’s tank is purred in the bottle with the help of the gravity. After the purring process is completed, the piston is lowered and the bottle transported from the turret with the help of a star wheel.

Standard features:
• Filler tank, with mirror finish for easy cleaning.
• Pneumatic bottle-raising pistons, operated with air trust and cam return. Externally mounted for easier cleaning and easy maintenance.
• Gravity filling valves, made from machined stainless steel AISI304, no welds or threads in contact with the product.
• Electrical height adjustment.
• Dummy bottle for filler CIP.
• Washing ball in the filler tank.
• Temperature sensor in the filler tank and indicator.
• Liquid level sensors in the filler tank for pump control.
• Format parts for one glass bottle size(star-wheels).

• Additional applications:
• Low depression filling.
• Light nitrogen pressure in the filler tank.
• Centralized filling level control system.
• Automatic product return system on filler inlet temperature regulated.
• Set of neck handling pincers, for pet bottles.
• Insulated filler tank.
• Aisi 316l stainless steel parts in contact with product.
• Format parts for additional cylindrical glass bottle (star-wheels)

ROPP capper VX:

Method of operation:
Full bottles are transported into cappers star-wheel. The star-wheel transports the bottles trough the capping unit. The bottle transporting method in the capper is with starwheel with smooth bottle transfers.
The caps are positioned in a towing shoe and directly picked up by the bottle.
The bottle is transferred to the sealing position where the rotating sealing heads descend onto them and begin the cap application process. The sealing head will first apply a top load to the closure to compress the liner within the cap to achieve a proper seal with the land of the bottle finish. The arms of the sealing head are then pushed inward and the thread rollers and pilfer rollers contact the cap to form it, so that it adopts the shape of the thread and pilfer grove of the neck finish of the bottle.
If a cap is missing, a safety plunger prevents contact between the rollers and the bottle neck finish.

Standard features:
• Main parts made of stainless steel AISI 304.
• Towing shoe mounted on cap chute with minimum cap level sensor.
• Star-wheel for smooth bottle transfer.
• Vibrating cap sorter-feeder, mounted on top of the machine.
• Roll on sealing heads, with no cap no roll safety system, easily adjustable side pressure.(for one cap size)
• Manual height adjustment of the top part of the capper with height indicator.
• Format parts for one glass bottle size.

Additional applications:
• Electrical height adjustment.
• Extra price for capping aluminum caps longer than 40mm.
• Cap chute with towing shoe, for additional cap.
• Additional roll on capping head for aluminum cap.
• Nitrogen injection in the bottle neck, before cap distribution.
• Format parts for additional glass bottle.

Pick & Place capper PK:

Method of operation:
Full bottles are transported into cappers star-wheel. The star-wheel transports the bottles trough the capping unit with the step motion.
The caps are fed through a circular vibration feeder/sorter and distributed through a pick & place transfer system, where is picked –up by the capping head, than the capping head with the cap descents on to the bottler.
The capper max output 2.500 B/H, is suitable for the application of T-cork caps on bottles having heights ranging from 180mm to max. 360 mm and max. Ø 115 mm.
The format change and the height adjustment are quick and simple. Mechanical and manually operated head lifting. Special safety devices stop the machine immediately to avoid breakages of bottles and any malfunction

Standard features:
• Main parts made of stainless steel AISI 304.
• Towing shoe mounted on cap chute with minimum cap level sensor.
• Star-wheel for smooth bottle transfer.
• Vibrating cap sorter-feeder, mounted on top of the machine.
• Mechanical cap clamp (for one cap size)
• Manual height adjustment of the top part of the capper with height indicator.
• Format parts for one bottle size.

Additional applications:
• Electrical height adjustment.
• Cap descending chute with towing shoe, for additional cap.
• Additional mechanical cap clamp, for additional cap.
• Nitrogen injection in the bottle neck, before cap distribution.
• Format parts for additional bottle
