Compact machine designed to automatic filling of non-carbonated or carbonated beverages (beer, cider, kombucha, sparkling wine, sparkling water) into aluminium cans.
This can filling machine is able to fill beer into cans with speed up to 25 cans (150 ml up to 500 ml) per minute (1500 cans per hour).

You can fill all types of cans quickly and easily with this compact machine.
Carbonated beverages like beer, cider, sprakling wine, kombucha or sparkling water should go to the machine as cold as possible, at between 2.1 to 2.6 vols CO2 (4.1 – 5.1 grams of CO2 /liter). Maximum temperature of 2°C is optimal.

Can height and filling height are adjustable. The 7” waterproof touchscreen is used to set all filling parameters: CO2 pre-purge time, filling time and pressure, etc.

Suitable for all types of aluminium cans, both slimline and standard sizes (with capacity of 150 ml up to 500 ml).

How the machine works :

Cans are fed into the machine by either a depalletiser or loading onto the conveyor by hand. Place empty cans on the infeed rotary table, let the machine work and take off the full cans with seamed lids from the collection table. Everything in between is fully automatic. Optionally you can order the machine with a depalletiser, can lowerator, labelling unit and the date/batch coder (ink jet printer).

The cans are transferred on the conveyor underneath the filling valves. The cans are held in position and the valves are lowered into the cans. The CO2 purges the cans to remove all the oxygen and then the valves are opened to allow the beverage to flow into the cans.

The volume of beer is controlled using volumetric flow valves for the most accurate fill level. Once the fill level has been reached, the cans travel on the conveyor through the gassing tunnel to keep oxygen out of the can until the can is under the seaming unit.

The machine utilises a built in sophisticated pressure monitoring system to fill by time to within +/- 2ml. The machine monitors the source tank pressure and is able to maintain a consistent top pressure by automatically topping up with CO2 as required.

The lid is collected by the can while simultaneously a final jet of CO2 is placed underneath the lid.

The can is seamed with a lid and then it is pushed through the rinser to remove any excess liquid from the can.

Finally, the can passes through the air knives which blow the water down the can body to leave a clean, sealed can at the end of the conveyor.

CFS-DEP6000 : Automatic depalletiser

The depalletiser is a fully automated machine for transferring standard or slim beverage cans from supplier pallets to the canning line. It is fully integrated
with the canning line and uses a Siemens S7-1200 PLC for the control system and a Siemens HMI.
For optimum hygiene, the depalletiser is manufactured from food grade AISI 304 stainless steel. This ensures robustness and a high level of cleanliness, as well as the safe use of cleaning agents. A food grade grease is specified for machine lubrication.
The safety interlock system ensures the operator cannot come into contact with any moving parts of the depalletiser.
