It has purchased a Modulfill HES filler with crowner, plus a Checkmat FM-HF fill level inspector with logo detection, plus the bottle conveyors.
The filler is an energy-efficient, probe-controlled filling system, without a vent tube, featuring a tubular ring bowl with 96 filling valves and an 18-head crowner. It has been prepared for subsequent retrofitting of a capper.
With a rated output of 33,000 0.5-litre beer bottles an hour, it is designed to handle both top- and bottom-fermented beers.
Double pre-evacuation with interpolated carbon dioxide flushing ensures minimised oxygen values, which enhances the stability of the beer's taste. Warm filling at temperatures greater than 15°C is also possible without any reduction in output.
