1.The plastic bottles are fed into the rotary rinser,filler capper by means of an input feed air conveyor. 2.A star wheel then transfers the bottle to neck holding gripper of the rinsing station. 3.The rinsing robot indexes the bottle 180°and activates the rinsing value.Bottles after being rinsed are automatically transferred by a star wheel to the filling station. 4.In the filling station the bottles are picked up by the neck, allocated individual filling values and sealed by rubber, Next a valve opens to inject CO2 while simultaneously a second vent(bleed) valve is opened to displace the prviously oxygenated air from the container. 5.Once eventually all of the oxygen has been replaced by CO2 the vent is closed and another valve opens to let the product flows into the container down the wall of bottle. 6.After filling is complete a vent is opend to allow excess product to escape which defines the classic liquid leve fill that you see in all carboanted drinks. 7.Finally the filled container is ready for sealing and the faster the better. Bottled carbonated drinks can go directly to capping station without much worry as the foam caused by escaping CO2 denies atomopheric oxygen from entering the product. 8.The state-of-art filling valve is so precise and accurate it gives even filling in all bottles.The filled bottles are then transferred to the capping station via a star wheel.The bottles automatically move for the capping stage where the caps release from the sorter on to the bottles.The caps are sealed automatically using special capping hands. |
