Lightweight PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) containers are increasingly being used in the modern packaging industry because they are very cost-effective and durable.
Nevertheless, the elasticity of PET poses a challenge to high-speed filling: how to retain structural integrity and, at the same time, fill it with a high degree of precision at a high rate to achieve a specified volume of liquid.
The Automatic PET Bottle Filling Machine that is produced by Nextgen Packaging Solution is specifically designed to eliminate this, and it uses high neck-handling technology and ultra-modern electronic flow meters to ensure the production is perfect.
Our automatic fillers are designed based on the volumetric filling principles. We do not need time or level (which may depend on the temperature of the liquid or the inconsistency of the bottles); instead, we use very high-accuracy mass flow or magnetic flow meters at each nozzle.
This makes sure that each bottle is filled to its full target volume, effectively eliminating any product giveaway and gaining you a great margin per batch. This accuracy transforms the machine into the best solution for the high-value products such as edible oils, high-quality juices, and premium beverages.
First of all, in operation, hygiene is. To minimize the chances of contamination, our nozzles are filled in contactless mode so that our nozzles do not come into physical contact with the inside of the bottle neck. Besides, the full fluid route with the tank to the nozzle tip can be fully compatible with Clean-In-Place (CIP) and Sterilization-In-Place (SIP) processes and enables quick and verifiable sanitation that is important in the food and beverage industries.
This hygienic promise ensures consumers are safe, and this promise lengthens the shelf life of your packaged commodities.
The lightweight PET bottle is firmly held by a special neck gripper and air conveyance system throughout the entire filling process by the neck finish. This ensures that the bottle body does not creep when under pressure to provide stability and consistency in high bottling speeds.
Every filling valve is fitted with a single, separately wired magnetic or mass flow meter, which provides real-time feedback and excellent volumetric precision (0.5%). This system ensures that there is minimal deviation and the production of products in all production volumes.
The filling system is completely automated with CIP circuitry, a feature that enables it to be sanitized with the push of a button, without taking apart components. This reduces maintenance time and is able to fulfill high standards as an aseptic or ultra-clean filling environment.
High-speed sensors are built in such a way that only when a bottle is in place under the filling nozzle does the filling nozzle open, hence no waste of liquids, spillage, or contamination of the machines.
Instead of using pneumatic actuators, high-speed servo motors are used to open and close filling valves, with faster, more efficient, and precise control of the filling cycle and cut-off.
There are various recipes of products that the operator interface (HMI) records. Automated height adjustment and recipe selection provide changeover to other bottle heights and volumes, as well as greatly increasing production uptime.
An intelligent seal system will guarantee a clean shut-off when the prescribed volume is met, where the nozzle will retract quickly so that there is no dripping of the product post-fill onto the bottle neck or line, thus preserving the appearance of the product.
Make an investment in the future of lightweight packaging that has a guaranteed volumetric accuracy. Implement Nextgen Automatic PET Bottle Filling Machine in order to optimize throughput, reduce product loss, and have verifiable hygiene standards.
