This is a model of a linear rinser-sterilizer for large plastic containers, from 5 to 20 litres, in a version with mobile rotating nozzles.

Principle of operation:
The rinser is equipped with pneumatic grippers that grip the bottles by the neck and align them with special spraying nozzles, available in single or double treatment versions.

After the spraying and dripping phases, the containers are turned upside down and repositioned on the conveyor belt to be transferred to the filling machine. In the single treatment version, the bottle is simply rinsed with sterile water or a sterilizing solution such as ozone or chlorine. In the double treatment version, the function of the first nozzle is to sterilize the bottle with appropriate sterilizing solutions (peracetic acid, H2O2, chlorine dioxide...) while the function of the second nozzle is to eliminate any residue of these substances by injecting sterile water. The same machine can be used in a blower version to clean the bottles with sterile air or ionized air, using special ionizing nozzles of our own design.

Main features:

1. Machine totally made of AISI 304 stainless steel
2. Mobile rinsing nozzles that penetrate inside the containers to guarantee maximum washing efficiency; a special rotating multiple-jet nozzle, with high-pressure jets aimed in all directions, sprays the entire inside wall of the body and neck of the container with water.
3. Spraying times can be adjusted from the operator panel
4. Single or double treatment machine, also in sterilizer version.

Twistline is a linear rinser-blower-steriliser in which the bottles are pushed, by star wheels or belts, inside a special guide called a Twist, shaped to fit the bottles themselves.The containers, vertically placed neck downwards, run above one or more lines of nozzles that deliver a straight upward jet, by means of which they are rinsed with throwaway water or sterilising solutions.

Thanks to its linear shape, this machine performs an excellent rinsing cycle followed by dripping times that can be set to last as long as the customer requires. Particularly suitable as a steam pre-heater-steriliser, in Hot-Filling processes.

Linerins is a linear rinser-blower-sterilizer for processing both glass and plastic bottles.
The machine is equipped with grippers, with neck or axial handling, evenly spaced on a stainless steel gripper-holding chain and features anti-friction components.

The spraying nozzles are also evenly spaced on a special manifold installed on a drive wheel and they are vertically aligned with the bottles.
A special feature of this machine is its prolonged dripping time, even at high outputs (over 60.000 BPH).

Example of application

DRIVE UNIT

The rotation speed of the machine is controlled by a variable-frequency motor drive (INVERTER) which operates directly the main drive unit.
Motion to the stars is transmitted by gears made of steal and highly resistant plastic made materials thus allowing to reduce at its maximum both wear and noise and to guarantee the max. precision of motion transmission to the various conveying parts.
