FILL STAR

This is an automatic filling and capping monobloc for low hourly outputs and a wide range of still products, such as fresh or long-life fruit juices, milk, spirits and detergents.

Principle of operation:

The machine consists of a simple star wheel with a reciprocating motion that pulls the bottles into the different positions that correspond to the various phases:

A) The first is a volumetric filling phase in two (or more) steps, with two (or more) filling valves equipped with a magnetic or mass flow meter, to achieve gradual filling of the containers with high precision and repeatability, avoiding foam and spillage of the product from the bottles.

B) A second phase involves picking up the caps, placing them on the bottle necks and capping; all movements are sequential and managed by a system of mechanical cams.

There are different models available, with 1 to 3 filling valves for outputs up to 2,000 BPH.

Main features:

1. No contact between filling valves and bottles
2. Volumetric filling by means of magnetic or mass flow meters
3. Extreme precision in terms of quantity bottled
4. Simple filling valves with no stagnation points, easy to sanitize
5. Manual dummy bottle insertion
