Main Features
1. This machine has advantages of compact structure; perfect controlling system, convenient operation and high-degree automation.
2. The parts touching with materials adopt imported high quality stainless steel – SUS304, which resist eroding and are convenient to clean.
3. The valve opening device is driven by cylinder , controlled by signal with accurate movement
4. It adopts high precision and high-speed liquid-level filling valves. Liquid-level is exact and the liquid doesn’t lose, which assures good filling quality.
5. Complete CIP return circuit and control process , cleaning can be conducted at sight
6. Capper adopt the roll pressed aluminum cap , ensure the sealing without break the cap
7. 2 tamper proof roller and 2 screw roller ensure the seal efficiency
8. Capping head adopt fiber structure, suitable for the little space machine.
9. Main electric component adopt the international famous brands.
Working process
The bottle is transported to rinser by the bottle in star wheel. The special designed nozzle spray the bottle interior. After rinsing and drying, it’s transported to the filler. The bottle was held by the clock cover and elevated under the bottle held cylinder. During the elevating process, check whether there is bottle on the bottle hold, if it is, the filling process begin after the isobaric condition and then stop filling when the level reaches the air return height. After the filling completion, the valve shuts and exhausts. And the bottle is transported out under the cam to the capper. The finished products are transported to the bottle-out conveyor chain out of the 3-in-1 monoblock.
Equipment Compositions and Functions
Bottle block cylinder & Infeed Screw
Bottle block cylinder is used to prevent the bottle go into the filling equipment during normal running and default .It can be operated manually and automatically. If there is not enough bottle supply, the bottle block cylinder controls the starwheel and reduces the running speed as well.
Bottle infeed screw drive is composed by the 2 level reducer, the 1st level is the cone gear drive, for driving the bottle in screw and bottle in chain, the 2nd level is bottle in screw drive box, for adjusting the bottle infeed screw and position adjustment during bottle shape changing .
Rinser
Composed by Dispenser, rinsing clamp, rinsing water recycle, there is a fixed rinsing time, the empty bottle was held by a fixed track, rinsing, drying, then reaches the cleaning purpose.
Filler
It’s composed by filling tank, filling valve, control cam, elevated cylinder, and clock cover valve opener and up and down dispenser. When it’s tested there is bottle, the valve opener opens the control pole and then CO2 opens. When the bottle pressure set the same pressure as tank interior, the main liquid passage opens automatically. The main liquid exhaust CO2, while it returns to the needle whole and air exhaust pipe. When the continuous liquid seal the air pipe, the bottle pressure is higher than the tank pressure. Under the pressure effect, the filling valve stops. After the filling finish, shut up the filling valve and let the CO2 out through the exhaust cam. (Don’t exhaust too fast, otherwise easy to get foam.
Equipped with CIP pipeline, main liquid pipe and air in pipe ensure the filling, cleaning. There is level sensor, safety valve, thermo meter and pressure gauge on the level tank. Clock cover, control pole is also fixed there.
The mixed material is transferred from filling valve to the tank. Filling liquid is controlled by the air return pipe; air return pipe is equipped with the umbrella structure, easier for the material filling. It also adopts the screw joint, easier for dismantle, only change the air pipe length when it needs the level adjustment. Air charge valve pole shut the CO2 return passage. Outer control pole life the charge valve and then opens the air charge/air return passage. Exhaust is preventing the material form making after filling.
Crown cap capper
The bottle into the click wheel through the transition card bottleneck Capping Machine. Rotary Capping Machine knife stuck on the only bottleneck location, keeping the bottle upright and prevent rotation. Capping Machine Capping head to remain in the revolution and rotation, under the action of the cam to achieve grasping cap, capping, press cap, cap off action, complete the capping process. Management Capping Machine is located in the top cover, through drop-cap rail and cover plate connected Capping Machine allocated. Finished bottle through the bottle capping machine sent from the click wheel to the bottle conveyor chains, conveyor chains send out the triple play by the filling machine, into the next process.
Discharge Starwheel
Discharge Conveyor
Driving motor is frequency inverted to synchronize with the filling line to prevent bottles from falling.
Discharge conveyor is equipped with photocell switch to slow down and stop filling line in case of fallen bottles.
Machine Frame
The machine frame is a welded structure of high quality carbon steel with the surface anti-rust treated and coated. The machine frame is wrapped with stainless steel sheet.
Driving system of the 3-in-1 Unit is positioned under the machine table. One main motor provides driving power via gear transmission.
The gear transmission system is an interleaved arrangement of steel gears and nylon gears.
The output shaft of the main motor is equipped overload protection to secure machine safety.
Electrical control system
The electrical cabinet is made of plated carbon steel. From bottle infeed to bottle discharge, a PLC controls the fully automatic operation of the 3-in-1 Unit.
